Just kidding, welcome! Hope you continue having a good experience.
Jeez, lots of comments to look through! I'll definitely take a peek some more but a pattern that I've noticed from the few comments I've skimmed through is that it seems like a lot of toxic people do show up, it's just that individual instances are good at removing them.
I also haven't been on Lemmy as much as I was on Reddit before I left, and I'm on a fairly small instance, so I guess that explains the lack of bigotry in my feed haha.
I haven't had a really bad experience yet. There was one guy who seemed to be making some kind of racist point but that's about it.
I received a couple of "fucking racist" from a person because I said in a post that immigration to rich countries should be controlled i.e. borders cannot just be opened and let everyone move anywhere, or else their economy and social situation could be affected
Plenty, since the overwhelming majority of it is a massive leftist circle jerk that isn't fond of people dissenting.
You are confused. What you are doing isn't "dissenting" so much as it's spouting absolute bullocks. You are doing the online equivalent of smearing your shit on the walls because you once heard someone else say that's a valid form of expression.
You keep posting the same ignorant bullshit over and over again, even after people explain just how ignorant your logic really is.
You can only claim "leftist brigading" when you are able to respond to your critics with verifiable facts to support your position. Until then, you are talking absolute bullshit.
Lmao talk about verifiable facts when you losers aren't just spouting whatever unhinged garbage your propaganda networks feed you
Personally I prefer a bit of conflict as it encourages discussion and alternate opinions. The discussions are pretty short when everyone agrees.
This place is the most elitist/arrogant place i seen, even worse than reddit. Especially it could be seen during recent discussion about threads/facebook.
