The only interesting Lemmy posts are related to federal politics. The second I open reddit suddenly it's a breath of fresh air.

Slapping the rails like this is exactly the lack of nuance that lemmy has. You're either with us or against us. That's not how people look at issues. What matters is how people are treated. I'm not going to vote for someone who harms people. Being pragmatic to avoid a bad scenario? Don't even bother.

 

I find the quality and variety of discussions on the fediverse to be lower than what I had on reddit. Lemmings have strong preconceived notions and little interest in changing viewpoints from new information. I think I'll be switching back.

Edit: you'll find that most of the comments deny any shortcomings of the culture and go directly to invalidating my opinions via character assassination. If lemmy was a community that actually stood for the ideals which it espouses it would take constructive criticism in the spirit in which it was intended. QED.

When you're told the economy is doing great this is what they mean. It's a bad message to send in an election year.

If there were better options then they would have been adopted.
