First it has to be genocide for anyone with a brain to care about posts like this.
Don't cheapen the word.
Cool story. What are ads?
Idiocy is not exclusive to Reddit. Different Lemmy servers were born based solely on stupidity.
There are too many dimwits who think Lemmy was made so that they can build their echo chambers. So, there is no discourse, just stupid people encouraging stupid people. Anyone that comments otherwise is immediately removed.
Most mods are dumdums. Most are obviously politically and ideologically motivated. It's their job to prune anything they disagree with, which means they can't help themselves and ban everyone. Most of the time it's a complete waste of time to comment in smaller subs. The dumdums have taken hold either by making the subs and controlling them, or by volunteering as mods with no oversight.
Personal echo chamber has to be the worst reasoning and idea I have ever heard.
Maybe I'm bothered because what you suggest as normal is bananas crazy.
The Nation version is click bait garbage. The original was denied both for safety concerns and it simply wasn't good enough.
What is genocide?
