I saw a post that talked about racism towards people and when I talked about it the response I got was very heated and a person even called lemmy.world a community of ‘hitlerites’

I have been around for a week or so and this is my first time seeing such explicit vulgar reaction towards another community, is this a one-off or should I block hexbear?

    I’ve had this conversation with my SO. Technically speaking the best move for me as a white male would be to support Trump. Instead I vote for Democrats hoping for positive changes for all people. For most of my life I’ve thought I was “far left” for American standards, but since I’ve joined portions of Lemmy and Reddit you’d think I was a fucking Republican.

    Certain portions of the left would rather spit in their own eye for unrealistic principles, even if it means that a worse alternative is the result.

      LOLLLLL dude has the political understanding of frog or something.

      I’d love to know what this guy considers to be “left”.

      Edit - also that’s less about treats and more about identity, branding and marketing. Like dudes who drive F350 pickup trucks to do a Walmart run. It’s all identity and cosplaying “a real man!” Meanwhile their F350 is spotless and looks like it came off the lot yesterday.
