Is there any lemmy instance that's truly liberal enough to tolerate a completely divergent point of view ? The EU norms are not for me, and I'm also far far away from the MAGA politics of USA !!!
If you run into an asshole in
the morningone instance, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholesall dayin every instance, you're the asshole
Just told my kid this..
How do you do the striking out on keyboard ??
It's Markdown. ~~strike out this text~~ --> strike out this text
Are you looking for an echo chamber that fits your views or what do you mean with “tolerate”? If you keep it civil and back up your arguments, I see a lot of potential for serious discussions on a lot of instances.
Sounds like the perfect opportunity to make your own instance and have it be your haven.
We get that question every few weeks. No, Lemmy isn't a "free speech" place. We tolerate a lot of things here, but the rules are made by the individual communities and instance admins. Generally, they remove misinformation, unhealthy things, hate and such. We don't know about any "islands" which treat things differently. Lemmy is Free Software, though. You're welcome to launch such an instance, and you'll be free to pass arbitrary rules in your own niche.
Which flavor of liberal are we talking? We've come a really long way since the mere word had any decisive meaning.
They're looking for somewhere that would welcome Andrew Tate style takes.
I find that the lemmy users think that there's one big Atlantic Ocean in the centre and the world is organised on its either sides. Have you ever figured it out that the lemmy servers are spread in what can be technically called the NATO countries ??? Do you have any idea how many users lemmy can have in the BRICS countries ??? And that's just the tip of the global south !!!
Yes. And what exactly does that have to do with my question?
Here we go again!
You've really grown into my pal over the past few days 😃😃😃
What exactly are the "EU norms" you're talking about?
I checked OPs comment history, not sure if conspiracy theory believers about NWO and Cabals are going to have a great time on here.
They also have a temp banned alt @Docker_84@discuss.online you cannot see most of their comments, I am guessing they were purged with the ban, and do not appear in the mod log.
I don't know where you live but are you aware about the recent black outs in south western Europe ?? Do you still believe that NWO is a conspiracy theory????
Anything that the EU doesn't agree with is put within the container called "disinformation". Then there are stringent laws regarding "regulating" the social media.
That's not how anything works.
There are only 2 instances of media outlets being banned based on the outcome of a political action and both had been known to spread complete and utter nonsense as "alternative facts" before they were banned: Russia Today and Sputnik.
There's not a great big cabal that says what's true and what's not.
There are objective facts, there are opinions and there are complete fabrications aka lies aka "alternative facts".
Facts are fine.
Opinions are fine, but they're not facts.
Complete fabrications or "alternative facts" are not fine, they can be objectively judged to be complete fabrications.
So, what are your views?
What could the views of a lemmy user be like whose country has a part of the British Empire for 190 years, whose country has been fragmented by the British Empire during its colonial rule, and later has been significantly impacted by both Europe as well as the USA over the years of its development ???
This place is deeply skewed left by European standard.
Did you heard about Puma?
What about it ?
