    True. Reddit was pretty center-right oriented. Lemmy leans more left and I do enjoy seeing the Trumpers here getting dunked on pretty frequently.

        Do you doubt that? What is your idea of the left? What is seen as ‘left’ or even what conservatives call ‘the radical left’ in the US would likely be seen as center or center-right globally.

          *in most of the western world and pretty much nowhere else.

      And when you did find Leftists they were just bootlicking tankies.

          I don’t have hate, I’m just sick of seeing what should be seen as a discussion (even if one side is ridiculous/borderline fascist) get debased further by the side with the moral/logical advantage calling basic reasoning and conversation “dunking” on the other side. It’s pathetic. You can do better than to look at political discussions as opportunities for someone to get dunked on. If you can’t, then I’ll just keep dunking on u bruh.
