You tend to have very extreme views, which sometimes get heavily downvoted. It’s convenient for you to blame that on “American indoctrination.”
And as you say, Lemmy is too small. So maybe it’s just that a lot of people here do not agree with your views.
Even for people, who are not Leninist/Stalinist or similar, it is noticeable.
From my perspective (being not from the US) us-american arrogance is very present on lemmy.
Those aren't mutually exclusive; “American indoctrination.” is the reason so many lemmitors disagree with such extreme views as "sending weapons that prolong war is bad for the people who will suffer the effects of those weapons, mostly civilians", "supporting al-nusra is bad", "we shouldn't put tariffs on EVs and solar panels", or "the chinese government having your data is less of a threat to you than the american government having your data"
