there are right wing instances?
I’m not entirely shocked. They get kicked off mainstream sites regularly, they need somewhere for their echo chamber to exist.
Im surprised the stupid fucks can still operate a computer/phone let a lone running an instance.
Tech bros are majority magats…
I’ve worked at FAANGs. Most of the people I worked with there didn’t subscribe to western politics. Just my experience.
Ah, so hilarious chaos IS a right wing instance?
Let’s take a look at HC’s local front page right now:
• First post is pro-Elon, uses “woke” as a derogatory term
• Second post is anti-science transphobia
• Third post is the same story as the first post, says a “hate crime” was committed by the “woke” person, article is on Breitbart [EDIT: fixed a typo I made here]
• Fourth post is ok, fairly normal, but posted by an avid poster for the site named Donald Musk
• Fifth post follows the suit of the fourth post
• Sixth post is transphobia for sports, article is on Breitbart
• Seventh post follows the suit of the fourth and fifth post
• Eighth post is by a news bot, headline says Israel is gonna keep doing what they do
• Ninth post is ok, just a banal joke
• Tenth post paints Tesla as a victim of violence, article is on Breitbart
• Eleventh post is saying most voters prefer moderate Democrats over “radical” AOC & Sanders, article is on Breitbart
• Twelfth post is anti-science transphobia
• Thirteenth post is by a news bot about Canada’s Carney’s plan (I don’t know enough about Canada’s politics to know where this guy stands on things)
• Fourteenth post is by a news bot about Anti-Trump rallies, headline seems politically neutral
• Fifteenth post is anti-science, pro-Trump, COVID conspiracy theories, article is on Breitbart
• Sixteenth post is ok, just a joke
• Seventeenth post is by an admin trying to save face by soliciting mods for a token leftwing community on their site, the only volunteer is one of the above posters of anti-science transphobia
• Eighteenth post is in German about some technology?
• Nineteenth post is by news bot about US attacking Yemen
Seems like a bot could do this job efficiently. Kinda like Reddit’s N-word bot
Thank you for doing the dirty work
Yep, sounds about right. Thank you for your service!
I’ve been completely unable to tell if they’re right wing or just a bunch of edgy 14 year olds, and I’ve been kinda reluctant to block them till I figure out which
Does it matter? If the edgy 14 year olds aren’t contributing anything you consider worth your time then block them anyway.
Oh it definitely doesn’t matter, I’ve been ready to block them since the second post I saw from that instance. It’s just morbid curiosity stringing me along at this point lmao
The first “couple”? I see the porn subs that we defederate because the admin doesn’t want to risk legal liability. There’s the one tanky instance that they defederated before later deciding not to defederate tanky instances. There’s the spam Reddit resharing instance. There’s the two instances mentioned in this LW post, which seems to indicate it’s about illegal content, not political alignment. That just leaves exploding heads, which was right-wing, but gave up hosting at all after everyone defedded them, and hilariouschaos.com. That one, I don’t know, so I’ll take your word that it’s right-wing. But that only leaves one, not a couple.
EH & HC (considered by many to be EH under a new name) are the two I was referring to. Tanky subs were an afterthought on my part.
I couldn’t take it anymore. I’ve had this alt for so many days now. I just got banned from a bunch of heir drumpfkins fluffer conservative communities today. I needed some entertainment to lift my spirits.
I watched a documentary about their ancestors while I commented freely. It’s called Deliverance. You should check it out.
HilariousChaos’s conservative community is a safe space for thin skinned snowflakes you’re not missing much.
Oh I know. I’ve been fucking with them for a while now. On various alts. Just some days you know…
You got a purdy mouth
The fastest block in the west 🤠
I’m a centrist. Am I allowed anywhere in this cruel world?
“If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice”
When I say I’m a centrist that means for some stuff I’m liberal and for other I’m conservative
Centrist isn’t someone who is not into politics. They classify themselves as “non politicals”
You got the difference?
What conservative positions do you support?
Stop hating and check my other comment
I’m from india so I can tell my perspective only for my country
I want
- the affirmative actions to be removed,
- laws to be made gender neutral,
- freebies to be removed (which is given to the uneducated low earning people because they are the votebank),
- to increase the funds in higher education govt institutions,
- DEI should be removed from job hirings,
- and there should be a test for civic sense for the ones who are applying for passport in india
It means your convictions are meaningless & you will become a tool of the Fascists eventually.
Check my other comment in this comment thread and tell me if I’m wrong
Nah.
See that’s what
But people in this comment section already thought I would be a fascist
“I only oppress people when they deseve it.”
Well I don’t deserve 6 downvotes 💢
Balancing on the knife’s edge is always a dangerous act.
Share your thoughts, be cordial, question politely, answer in kind.
I always answer politely unless the other person fcs around
Still you’ll targetted everywhere id you’re a centrist. Just look at the down votes😂
You can’t please greek and trojans and politics are always a dividing subject but, in my opinion, nobody has the reason by themselves. Usually, everyone has a good idea that everyone should support.
How about having to hug a relative with a right wing shirt?
“ha ha funny shirt! But can you imagine people BELIEVE that lie?!? Classic Uncle Morty!”
Wouldn’t happen because I cut those people out of my life.
I’d jump in acid.
I do think anyone on Lemmy is probably smarter than anyone on Reddit. I was browsing a conservative sub today and while they were very few comments, most of them disagreed with the general direction of the Trump administration.
I don’t think user intelligence has as much to to with it as foreign interference and astroturfing campaigns, since its a larger platform
And the bots. Don’t forget the bots.
at least there are some of them here, i havent seen them yet whatsoever
(I even feel like its way more progressive but also more “radical/chaotics” here and there since the communities are still more niche and therefore weighting feels off)
would love to read some “frustration” every now and then to see how my facebook grandparents would argue for example, lol
Because obduration is just a much less useful school than evocation.
