MODERATORS

I'm out of the loop, what's going on?
We have to fight ourselves instead of conservatives because someone's left isn't the right shade of blue.
I see what you're saying, but the community on lemmy.ml are the ones who start infighting everywhere.

Lemmy.ml spreads a lot of propaganda/disinformation, has opaque and questionable moderation, and regularly advocates for violence.
Cringe meta drama. Some people really want this place to be reddit.
Why would you want to create an echo chamber? I genuinely don't get it, it's the internet, if you encounter an opinion you disagree with, literally just close the tab and it's gone
Most people on here don't mind being exposed to different viewpoints. If you ask me, even some - or even most, IDK - tankies are fine to talk to, even argue with, as they are usually civil.
The problem is that there are a lot of users on the *.ml instances who are not interested in debate, they just keep repeating the same 2-3 slogans over and over again in smug superiority as a reply to everything, and mods ban people randomly the same way.
When you meet some users who reply "you are misled by Western media" to anything you say as a final and incontrovertible argument, that's not a good faith debate I'm willing to participate in.
The problem is not the differing opinions, but the differing norms for polite conversation and good faith arguments.
