Don’t you think it’s quite ironic that the subject I’m trying to avoid is being discussed in this post?

    I’d argue it doesn’t have to be that way.

    Lemmy is currently one of the few places online that can break free of media narratives because no corporation owns or runs it. It’s all volunteers. It could be made into a great place for open policy discussion, that serves the public interest.

    People are so used to the vitriol promoted by 24/7 corporate media that it will take a long time to change that, but you have to start somewhere. You have to chip away at their influence, otherwise things will only be worse in 20 years.
