i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

There are some, let's say fringe, political beliefs on some of the instances. I've just learned to keep out of their spaces and the arguments are easy to avoid.

There are some IMO extreme political beliefs which seem to be considered valid on mainstream instances and communities.

I’ve seen, multiple times, people openly supporting terrorism as a solution to oppression/occupation on Lemmy since I joined.

Edit: sorry Memmy froze for a sec and posted the same comment a bunch of times.

I mean TBF when you look at history terrorism seems to work decently enough.

I wanna see you say that to my face or to the face of anyone else who is or knows a victim of terror.

Fucking wild take

It all depends on whether you consider Mandela are terrorist.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
