Some good points, but to be fair, OP thinks lots of people are misinformation/propaganda plants. Me included. LMAO

Fair point. .world is 2nd or 3rd most censorship-happy!

Fair points!

Why care what the chucklefucks at lemmy.world think? They have proven they do whatever they want with little regard for their own rules

Amen!

Also what is your fricking agenda against lemmy.world?

I don’t know about OP’s agenda, but I personally think .world is the most censorship-happy instance we have.

I apologize. You’re right, I assumed. Mostly because that’s who I interact with all day on here. I’m glad to have a fellow old-timer in the house!!

I think where our views mismatch is I just don’t think anything has changed much, regardless of who is in office. I mean, the democrats never undo what the republicans do. And republicans rarely do what they say they are gonna do.

So it’s not so much that things haven’t changed for the worse, it’s that no president of either party has worked very hard to reverse bad things.

And since you’ve been around, you’ll also know that everyone thought Trump was gonna destroy us all and get rid of gay people last time he was in office. And that he was a Nazi that was gonna turn us into some White Power nation.

Didn’t happen then. Won’t happen now.

Next election, we’ll vote in a Democrat who will be on the campaign trail promising to undo all the republican shenanigans. And they won’t do it.

Same as it ever was.

Sure, but while being on Lemmy, it’s easy to be bombarded by anti-Trump posts, posts that daily say “We’re losing the war. The capitalists won. World is gonna end within 4 years!” or variations of “I’m so sad. I’m afraid I’m gonna be put into a work camp and miss my mom and dad!” etc.

It’s freakin crazy what Lemmy people say.

Hey, maybe you thought all of that before Lemmy. But I’m old enough to have fucked your grandma when she was hot. I have seen these same reactions EVERY FUCKING ELECTION from opposing sides. Since I’ve been following politics in 1986.

And guess what? Nothing changes. Regardless of who’s in office. Same as it ever was. Just keep on doing and voting what’s best for you, ignore the haters, and carry on.

What’s even funnier is I’m a bisexual trans woman from Russia, I’m about half of those things they are banning me for being prejudiced against, a fairly regular visitor and commented on .ml, hexbear vet (also banned unrelated to this lol

I get accused almost daily of being a Russian-paid poster, because I post stuff about Trump.

But I’m actually a socialist, think both major political parties are capitalist shitholes, and voted third party. And .ml banned me. LMAO

I honestly don’t know what it takes to not be banned from there!

Nah, you are online too much. Lemmy is one huge echo chamber about how Trump is gonna destroy the world, he’s a nazi, etc. Heck, I get accused of being a nazi just because I didn’t vote for Harris. And I didn’t even vote for Trump! lmao

I’ve read people who seriously think he’s going to line up gay people and shoot them or put them in work camps, how he’s gonna end presidential term limits and become a dictator, etc.

By the way, these were the exact same things that happened last time he was president!

He’s a dumbass. But so was Biden. We’ll be fine. I promise. Feel free to save this comment and come at me if I’m wrong.

Thanks, amiko!
