I know will not be seen by many, but if someone wonders why my profile is dead, they know why. Link sends to join-lemmy.org, if I get banned, oh well…

    I haven’t logged in since BaconReader shut down. I’ve gone over to lurk a little, but each time I do and drop into the comments, I last maybe 5 minutes and close it.

    That said, the holier-than-thou crowd is becoming more vocal here, and it’s a bummer.

      The commies with no sense of the historical irony of said label were here before I arrived. I’d say they were teenagers afflicted with black and white thinking but maybe that is not the case.

        Eh not even that, it’s more of the “my thinking is right and if you disagree with any element of my ideology, you’re a bigot/fascist/etc”. When I first got here, conversations were pretty pleasant and opposing ideological conversations were welcome, but it’s shifted pretty quickly into hivemind/groupthink.

        No you’re pretty spot-on. I would also lump in troll propagandist to the mix. There are quite a lot of communist on Lemmy who are a little more sophisticated than a teenager.
