Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

My first time experience here had been very politically charged and I asked about it in askLemmy and I was told to immediately block you people in the options I was given

I had the opportunity to browse around and found out that you folk were decent and weren't as awful as told in that post I made

How do you view .world and by extension other instances that defederate (and view negatively) towards you?

I have never been able to get a straight answer when I ask why a group of supposed right wingers would make a largely isolated instance to talk about theory, shitpost, support trans rights, foster a welcoming community, and create mutual aid comms to raise money for community members and Palestinians, but all ironically of course.

We literally did the Long March on a hopelessly incompatible fork of Lemmy years before the Reddit Exodus took place

constructing an intricate fantasy world is more appealing than acknowledging you've spent decades being wrong

Sadly, correct. That's why criticism and self-criticism are core to many Leftist spaces, and a major hurdle for western leftists to jump over.
