Not from what I've seen, it's just not tolerant of liberalism.

Not from what I've seen, it's just not tolerant ~~of liberalism.~~

There, I fixed it for you.

Not in my experience, they are very tolerant towards Marxists, Anarchists, trans people, etc. Liberalism is bannable, though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Well yes they just label anyone who they want to be removed a "liberal", like they did with me.

Take it as a badge of honor. All clowns over there... First instance I blocked, and it reduced the toxicity on Lemmy by 70% on the spot.

I've read the things you have posted, and IMHO you were banned for being a loud dumbass

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Sure, whatever. That's their prerogative. But if you also insult me and delete my comments explaining our position so as to allow your disinfo the fester all the better, I might just call you a disingenuous pos

Edit to say, that being a loud mouth is not a "liberal" or "reactionary" either 😁

For what it’s worth, I’ve always thought of you as more of a loud smart ass. /s

Don’t take these fools to heart. You are entitled to express your opinion in threads, and you know where the line of civility is.

I believed that, myself, for quite some time. I ended up blocking them, however, despite being an anarcho-syndicalist. The instance has very much cultivated a toxic and anti-social culture where the most active users are climbing over eachother for a chance to "dunk" on someone.

Just like right-wingers abuse outrage to get a rush some of the polygonimals clearly have become addicted to aggressive behaviors, with the rush from bullying and dunking being rather apparently more important than leftism. It's a problem.

Additionally, their claims of anti-sectarianism and dialectics do not hold water when they are quick to label dissenting leftists as libs so that they can justify bans for those who don't toe the line.
