You definitely sound like you have a vendetta against Lemmy. Even if it was 1 big think tank who's opinions are entirely against yours, other online and offline communities were surprised Trump won too.
Only because of this longish conversation. Reality is that Lemmy is a place for shit-talking and shit-posting. I don't take any of it seriously.
Not my community. Not the people I know. When you surround yourself by people who think exactly like you, sometimes you lose sight of just how many different opinions there are out there.
Which happens regardless of your ideology.
For the record, I'm not in MAGA land or anything. A city with over a million people. Blue state. Mix of people and diversity. Most of the people I knew were doubtful of the dem party and their choices lately. Obviously the MAGA people had Trump in their eyes and saw nothing else, but plenty of liberal friends of mine had a feeling of how it was gonna go.
I remember on Lemmy, people were saying they were throwing up because they were crying so much. Some said they couldn't focus because of shock. The over-dramatics of Lemmy on the day after the elections was fucking hilarious.
Now those same people are asking others when the world's gonna end. Should they drop out of college because the world's over, etc.
Fucking Lemmy is insane. But I still like it here for the laughs. You all whack tho..lol I don't care how many downvotes I get, or bans, or the hate. It's all just a fucking online shit-talk forum. You all take shit way too seriously!
