    I mean, he’s kinda right though. Dems are known for suppressing free speech. Look at lemmy, it’s 99.9% blue and you once say something like “Trump gud, illegal immigrant Kamala bad” and instead of a factual argument with a birth certificate attached, you just get a ban.

    Dems want an oppressive regimen where everyone who disagrees with them is silenced. So, I understand why he’s worried.

    And if this does happen, you’ll see lemmy cheer. Lemmy values free speech and independent opinion only when it aligns with their.

      I’d love to talk to you about illegal kamala but first I need to make sure you aren’t a Russian bot. Kindly attach a picture of you wrapped in an American flag and then we’ll talk.

            Hard to avoid a US political debate on lemmy. Always the same posts about the same threesome of Trump, Musk, and Kamal. And those are top voted posts on every possible sub.

              Well yeah, our elections are coming up. I hear all about how Le pen is a nazi whenever French elections roll around, you can deal with our bullshit for a little bit without spouting off about shit you don’t comprehend.

      Remind me again who vowed to be “dictator on day one”? I think those people are probably the ones who want an oppressive regime.

      Looking through your post history, you HATE Lemmy. Why are you even here? Is this another u/spez account?

        I thought we were building a better reddit here. But turned out we’re building an echo chamber where snowflakes can whine to each other all day long. Not sure what this really achieves as 99.9% of them always agree with each other.

        Political activism is only valid if it actually reaches someone who disagrees, and when done in a way that it might convince the other party to at least consider your points.

        Lemmy fundamentally fails at both simultaneously. Kinda explains why US politics is such a shitshow.

        There was a pond called reddit. The water got too warm and all the yellow frogs migrated to the swamp nearby. They now claim that if you’re not a yellow frog, there’s something wrong with you, and they’ll kick you out of their swamp if you don’t turn yellow tomorrow.

        Next.
