Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

On stuff outside of lemmygrad, we are receiving a lot of hate, especially by those who just moved from Reddit. Guess they lost their hidden privilege at Reddit as their rhetoric used to be almost universal over there, while genzedong and our other subs get censored and banned. And now, on lemmy, their stuff isn’t universal, as we are more prevalent here. Seems like they really want that hidden privilege back

Or normies show up and take over?

You think they're going to take over lemmygrad, or hexbear? The thing about federation is that you can avoid the outcome you're talking about by only federating with communities that share our values.

Well they've taken over lemmy.ml?

Registration on Lemmy.ml is no longer open I think. Lemmy.world is leading the pack for active users (or close to it). Regardless, why would the admins of lemmygrad and hexbear not enforce their own rules on the normies?

I just went over to lemmy.ml and got called a Putler penis fellator or some such teenage insult.

You're going to have to have thicker skin then that comrade.

And me having thicker skin will make the outcome we were talking about not have happened somehow?

I think you lost the thread there.

My friend, you are always going to be ideologically out numbered. If the libs want to call you names, that only shows their ignorance. Walking away ensures what you're talking about actually happens. It's not your job to educate people if they do not want to hear it, however, disengaging only ensures those spaces become hostile to your beliefs. Systems like these only have value at scale, and with that scale comes individuals who do not share your world view. Alienation starts at home, we we decide to no longer engage. Just take solace in knowing this space here, is for you first.

I think there's a parallel conversation going on here that's happening only in your mind. We were talking about libs taking over lemmy.ml, remember?

Why do you think I "walk away", or have a "thin skin"? What gave you that impression? It's certainly not the case and nothing I've said should have given you this idea. You can look at my comment history yesterday on lemmy.ml to verify.
