    But the places with the most content are places that are all reddit lite. Very safe well moderated communities. It’s like lemmy is a place for people who thought r/pics was too spicy. As the OP said, people here are very confrontational avoidant. And that isn’t good because we need to be confrontational if we ever want to build a place that can build left leaning communities. If we don’t, if we ignore the world right now, it is only inevitable that this place will also be gone. And this may be the last space we have for a long time after that.

      after being here for almost 5 years, I haven’t seen much of that, because I’m not looking for it-- but if those are the places you seek, as I’ve said, those are the choices you make. stop blaming others for your own choices.

      this place wasn’t made for you, specifically. you sound like a spoiled child when you complain that it’s not exactly as you like and make no effort to use it as intended: to customize the experience to your liking. and when you make bad faith arguments complaining that there is content here you don’t like (especially when you seem to be seeking it out), you’re not fooling anyone.

        You are sticking your head in a hole in the sand, and blaming other people for not doing the same.

          now you’re just writing random insults because you can’t back up any of your claims after I pointed out that your arguments make so sense.

            It’s not a random insult. It’s a approach towards life that you have chosen that I do not share.

            The world exist outside of me and my perceptions. A lot of people on lemmy have a very difficult time with this concept and default to solipsistic world view where nothing exists other than their curated internet feeds, and anyone who doesn’t live similarly is bad and stupid.

              blaming others for pointing out that your arguments don’t make sense by insulting them rather than making logical arguments backed by evidence doesn’t change the facts. and lashing out with further nonsense doesn’t make you right.

              citing further false equivalencies doesn’t help you, either.

                yes, you are such a big strong smart genius, and I am such a stupid dummy dumberson.

                and you aren’t at all the type of fedi user i was calling out in my initial post, which is why you got so butthurt.

                  see, this type of ridiculousness is why nobody here is taking you seriously. you make nonsense, bad faith arguments, and, when confronted, it’s just all insults and blaming others.

        Now you attack me personally? Shit argument. You sound like the child here. I’m here to discuss the platform. Keep to that.

          I didn’t make any personal attacks, but making a petty and hypocritical argument hardly makes your point, although it does prove mine

              observing that you sound like a child isn’t the same thing as calling you a spoiled child.

              I suggest you look up the word “nuance” in the dictionary.

              no wonder you keep seeing what you want, regardless of the reality of things…
