I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

I've had several people here already tell me (directly or indirectly) that I'm really a Trump supporter in disguise because I dare criticize Biden and centrists don't exist. But that isn't a problem specific to Lemmy, and the sites that aren't like this are alt-right "Ultra MAGA" cult sites that I want nothing to do with.

The left has turned into the fascists they pretend to despise

Absolutely. If you can't look at your own side critically, you're in a cult.

Anyone who supports Biden isn't left wing, especially if they get mad at your criticism.

The left has a lot to say about Biden
