being left leaning is not the issue, but when opinions even slightly to the right of extreme left are censored and removed, it doesn't encourage participation or conversation

Where is that happenening outside of lemmygrad? I have literally never once seen that happening outside of that place...

Though it happens literally 24/7 on alt-right social media or reddit /r/conservative ๐Ÿ˜‚ you can speedrun any% ban time by saying "I think covid was handled poorly" lol

Plenty of liberal techbros around on lemmy. Also are you aware of the Nazi Bar phenomenon.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I'm liberal, but no techbro. Try saying something remotely luddite and watch what happens.

Gas stove >>> induction stove

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Hell no. Gas stoves heat the air more than they heat food, they're dirty (both in terms of emissions and being a bugger to clean) and not a single bit faster. With ordinary resistive electric you might've had half a point, gas has its pros and cons there, but induction is superior to all in all relevant metrics. Well, modulo woks that's a different topic but do you even have one.

My point has been proven. You fell right into my trap.

[-] JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago

Literally the entire point of this thread is that "you get censored for saying things that aren't hard left."

Someone disagreeing with you is literally the furthest thing from censure. They can still see and react enough to disagree with you.

Look, you comment is still up and will stay up forever. What a shit trap when you don't even know what you are trying to "prove."

Also, both gas and induction have their place. Not everything is either/or.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Gladly so. After all, all I proved is that I care about how well a thing works, not about how old or new it is. For you, as a liberal, of course, "working well" is a category that includes capitalism so...

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

That's what I was getting at though. Differing opinions are attacked around here. The lemmy "hive mind" is way more bullshit than reddit ever was.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee -2 points 1 year ago

The marketplace of ideas is not, in fact, a place where you go and spend money to buy or sell ideas. It involves attacking one another's ideas.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

You have a shitty world view.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Was that an attack on my ideas? Seems you agree, then.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

That was a statement of fact. I suggest you do some research into a thing called "discourse"

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

What are your objective standards for "shittiness", your arguments for the judgement to not be subjective?

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I'm rubber you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago

A smart and kind person, a gentleman and a scholar.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I thought you'd like that. Speaking your language.
