Created an account on one of the main instances, and immediately the second I post my own thoughts on politics BAM! comment removed and I’m blocked from the politics community. I’ve moved from one idiot cesspool to another haven’t i?

    I was labeled as a fascist and banned from lemm.ee within days of opening an account there. Apparently, the admin labels everything non-marxist as fascist.

    It doesn’t even matter if it’s politics. They all run a very tight little circle where any information they don’t agree with is classified as “misinformation” and banned. It can be on technology or security or social issues or science or anything. They are the definition of faggots.

    If you can’t make the argument logically all you’re left with is force. Once the left gained ascendancy they couldn’t hide behind the equal rights schtick. Their argument was always ‘we just want the same as everyone else and to be left alone.’ Most people were fine with that and from a secular world view it makes sense.

    Now they just want to control everything and end civilization - but they are still using the same old 'Leave us alone, don’t be mean arguments." That doesn’t hold. They have no argument, so force is all they have.

    More to the point, they have no argument, and they know it. But they still want all the power. All they can do is name call, bully and censor. Welcome to the world of echo chambers. They know their position doesn’t make sense logically - but with enough dead bodies they can prop their ideology up.

      Talked about how I’m anti abortion, not because of religious reasons (which they immediately jumped to) but because I wanna give children the same shot at life I have! I’m a micro preemy and the doc told my parents to abort. They didnt and I’m so grateful because here I am! But of course I was just called a self centered pos and a monster.

    If you are talking about EH then I would say no. Yes it’s a conservative instances, we just need more people posting about other things and not just politics. Don’t be shy to do that. I want to see more variety that’s why I pay alot here

        Basically what you have to do is is that you have to convince people that exploding heads is not all about anti-trans memes and Nazi stuff because in truth, we are not. Your next step is to get people from there to come here to your new community while promising them a safe space that right wing trolls cannot go into because we definitely have some right wing trolls. Then if any trolls go into your community to cause trouble, you ban them from the community. I promise to never allow you or anyone from your community to ever be exiled or banned from exploding heads

        I would suggest that you make a new community here and then try to get as many people from there to come here as possible. And if you do not want right wing people on this instance, trolling your community, remember that you can always ban people from your community, but we are not going to band people instance wide over frivolous matters, especially because someone didn’t like one of our memes.
