Or do people think that Lemmy is a neutral, open-minded, safe community? Not like evil Reddit.

EDIT: Talking about mainstream instances like ml or world.

See examples of violent comments towards me and instead of mods removing their comments, they removed mine.

The comment that the all caps person was replying to was me saying that there are non-human targets. Users were assuming I want to kill people and turns out they are the ones that want to kill.

    So stay in your echo chamber.

    Other people believe neutrality can exist and actively practice it. You basically are claiming anyone who isn’t on your side, is against you, and therefore is hateful. That’s an actively hostile position to work from.

      If you’re not on the side of any marginalised group, if you’re neutral about their marginalisation, then you are ok with them being marginalised.

      Which is why, as I said, a community can not be both neutral and safe.

      Edit - Imagine my surprise when it turns out you’re a transphobe who complains about being called out for having “moderate” opinions about trans folk

        It’s only an ‘echo chamber’ when they’re the minority. Every website must be populated by bigoted assholes!
