It’s not about channeling - it’s about being respectful. And no I don’t mean to the wealthy, I mean to one another here.

Lemmy.ml for instance says that it is “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers”, so surely it must be all about software enthusiasts r-r-right? Nope, instead go there now and see things like:

Meh, they can do whatever they choose. And I choose not to advertise for them anymore by telling people irl that I use “Lemmy”. I’ve also figured out how to block all the users of the instance as well.

BTW I’m worse than a bootlicker - I’m a “collaborator”.

Also, I guess my own complaining isn’t as worthwhile as others complaining, so that rather than simply scroll on it warrants “a talking to”, in order to uphold the status quo of Lemmy that pushes ever more to the extremist state. Translation: ONE side is, shall we say, “mOrE eQuAl” in its right to complain than the other.

You next explained the “rightness of cause” and “ideological purity”, yup. Particularly interesting is how the admins don’t have the “right” to do with their own instance what they choose and must instead kowtow to “the community” - which somehow excludes the entirety of all of its non-extremist members, yet for whatever reason includes solely the extremist ones? Interesting… I feel like I have heard this identical Alt-Right Left message before somehow, just phrased in different terms.
