I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

I defederated my instance.

I thought lemmy.ca's justification pretty compelling. They are self-avowedly more interested in trolling, harassing other users, and crapping on other people’s politics. They don’t even make a secret of it.

It’s unfortunate because they do seem really queer and queer-friendly. But they seem to be totally uninterested in doing anything other than dunking HARD on anyone to the right of Lenin. So… passing on seeing that, personally.

They're the kind of far-left types the rest of us should avoid being associated with because they ruin all of our image in the long run.

Yeah, some of us would like to be able to actually win elections and start changing things rather than fantasising about a glorious revolution that isn't coming.

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 45 points 1 year ago

From where I'm standing it doesn't matter if you win or lose elections, the shitheads you elect will just spend all the money they can on war, make up endless excuses for why they can't actually fix problems and allow reactionaries to run hog wild in the meantime.

Two years before the Russian revolution, Lenin said that he would never see the revolution in his lifetime. A good future may be closer then you think.

I mean good luck with that- even if we didn't exist, conservatives of all stripes will slander you as a disgusting communist. They do that to democrats in the US even. Worrying about image should be the least of anyone's concern

we've got to vote harder

[-] sammer510@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago

Like any of the elections you dipshits win actually change anything lmfao

Winning elections doesn't matter if the only choices are the ones the two corporate parties allow.

Look the only thing holding US politics back was blahaj.zone being federated with hexbear, if they just defederate then somehow the GOP will stop attacking trans people because then their image will be better mkay sweaty?

Nah get the hell out of here with that noise. Respectability politics is a dumb fucking game. The amount of times a cis queer person has told me as a trans person that I’m making the queer movement look bad is too high to count.

Fine, continue to act like a bunch of ten year olds hopped up on E numbers and a copy of Das Kapital and see how far that gets you in this world.

crapping on other people’s politics.

idk, I think neoliberals on lemmy often (not always) lean this way as well with the "bot" this and "tankie" that and "genocidal" the other thing. Surely, even if you agree with one or all of those, you can see how it fits "crapping on other people's politics"?
