This community shares news and articles from a wide range of political perspectives—socialist, liberal, conservative, independent, libertarian, Green Party, Pirate Party, and more.

The goal isn’t to push one side but to give people a fuller picture of what's going on in the world.

You’ll find everything from mainstream coverage to underground analysis, letting you compare narratives, spot bias, and dig deeper into the facts.

It’s a place for curious thinkers, not echo chambers. Whether you lean left, right, or somewhere off the map entirely, the idea is to expose yourself to other viewpoints and sharpen your own thinking.

Civil discussion is encouraged, and the focus stays on good information and mutual respect—not name-calling or tribal politics.

Well, well, well. Looks like the Dems gave in to the Repubs. Again.

So ya'll ready for a third party yet? Or ya just gonna keep trying to silence third party supporters on Lemmy?

I've been saying it for over a year now, have never ever changed my tune: Fuck the Duopoly, vote third party. If enough do, then third party becomes viable. Check my post histories on all the instances I have my name on, including .world (who banned me for voting 3rd party).

But nooooo, you all tried to ban me, tried to slience me, tried to bully me. Didn't work. I voted third party (Socialist) in the presidential election of 2024, voted third party in most recent 2025 elections. Proud then. Proud now. Laughed then. Laughing now. Suckers! :)

Almost like they tried to silence you instead of admitting they had problems...

Clearly voting for the lesser evil who always bends the knee to the bigger evil will fix this!

Right? It's fascinating to me to see Lemmy suddenly squealing "We need a 3rd party!" after yet again, Dems let them down. Saying that in october of 2024 was ban-worthy though.

People on hate on you, without researching your name. Most of Lemmy actually would agree with Debs, but they have been so blindly loyal to their party that they ignored and shunned people like you and I.

What did you and I advocate for that was so terrible? We advocated for votring for people who had our interests at heart instead of the wealthy interests.

I'm actually still kinda stunned that people like you are me are seen as so controversial on Lemmy. Before I jumped here for Lemmy, I legit thought it would be a bunch of anti-establishment people. But um, no. There were just anti-THAT SIDE. But sucking up the Democrat establishment is still very much preferred to making any hard changes.

I read the news about the dems caving to the republicans and immediately laughed out loud because I already knew what the Lemmy reaction was gonna be. lol

Always remember, friend, that you and I were anti-duopoly before anti-duopoly became cool! lol
