I find the raving tankies to be a small contingent of Lemmy, in my experience.
Could your moderate opinions be actually not very moderate, “ShittyRedditWasBetter”? Your username advances a very strong opinion.
Only because you are on lemmyworld and the worst parts of it have been defederated because it's a fucking cesspit out there.
My views are quite middle of the pack. Capitalism mostly works, but we need string corrections where it doesn't, mainly housing, healthcare, education. LGBTQ+ should be treated fairly and respected as humans. There should be a national registration and stronger gun laws but DNC policy is stupid and ineffective.
I've been called Nazi multiple times on multiple threads.
I feel like something is being left out because I don’t think reasonable people would call any of those things Nazi.
The most common parallels in North American discourse right now are the global rise of fascists masquerading as populists (and viewpoints supporting those politicians), and supporting Russia in the War on Ukraine.
