I don't really understand what it is you're after. Do you want a place where people only get positive reception no matter what they say? Maybe that exists in a group therapy session, but I don't think that's what you're asking for. Is it?

Is it about getting down voted? Who cares? You can't control how other people react to your opinions and you shouldn't try. Lemmy is diverse and it is federated. Each instance and community has its own rules and culture. If you don't find any of the communities to your particular liking, you can always start some of your own.

I think your premise is flawed. There's no such thing as a "hivemind" or what it implies. Opinions will exist on a spectrum of popular to unpopular depending on the community they're posted in. I would say that those descriptors are perfectly adequate as they are.

Whenever I saw someone complaining about the "hivemind" over there, they were invariably whining about people not liking their unpopular opinion on something. When you say "hivemind" you are equating anyone with that opinion to insects/drones/NPC etc. Just because you're different doesn't mean you're right.

It's just a relevant quote given the post.

I've been voting left since 1996.

Uber-liberal Gavin Newsom of California, is immediately leveraging that supreme court ruling to threaten state funding for any city or county that doesn't clear homeless camps.

"Americans will tolerate anything [(even genocide)], provided it doesn't block traffic."

Learn to model things in CAD. That's what is limiting me from getting real use out of my printer. It's fun to print models you find online, but the real value is in printing your own designs.

That dude was so fucking hot.

Why did she release an official statement condemning the people who protested Netanyahu's recent US visit? She could have said nothing at all, but chose to attack the very people who "refuse to remain silent" about the genocide. Why didn't she take the opportunity to agree with the protestors at her rally, and condemn the ongoing genocide and the ongoing US support and enablement of it?

If being against genocide makes me a tankie then #guiltyascharged
