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

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

            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.

                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.

                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…

                  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.

                    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.
