Yes! I'm also very tired of the repetitive "capitalism bad. America bad. XYZ terrible for the environment" replies. We get it, you have things you don't like. You don't need to repeat it on literally every single subject that exists. There are so many low-effort comments that just recycle the same 3 subjects over and over again, regardless of the actual original topic.
My favorite example of this so far, the top rated comment on a post about players making a one million science per hour factory in factorio:
Lemmy is so negative, it even hates Factorio.
Do you mean this comment? It may have been at the time you saw it, but it didn't last.
Yep, that was it. Makes me feel a little bit better that every comment under it is calling it out though, thanks for the follow-up.
Yeah, the ratio of fanatics and extremists to regular people is very high here.
It's mostly bots and LLMs spreading authoritarian propaganda, not real people.
