    Seriously though, who still uses Reddit? It’s nothing but a left wing echo chamber, just like BlueSky.

      They aren’t and, if they were, is that a problem?

      Look at what right-wing echo chambers have led to. Look at what the “centrist” internet has led to.

      Its 2025 and there are still people on the Fediverse convinced that the problem is the “left”. Utterly divorced from reality.

        That’s because the left expects loyalty but never gives it in return.

        You people think you can keep calling people nazis because they don’t agree with you on everything and expect them to ignore it. People don’t like being censored and they don’t like being told what to think.

        The left doesn’t care about the working class either, they’re just not as brazen in exploiting it. So when all that’s left is the culture war (good job everyone who perpetuated it over the class war), a significant amount of people aren’t going to be on your side.

        A lot of you only have yourselves to blame. You behave like children yet want to be treated as adults. It doesn’t work that way outside of your parent’s houses.

        My ONLY problem with the left is they preach tolerance but are ALWAYS the ones to start the abuse, insults, name calling and threats when they are disagreed with.

        On a place light Reddit most subs will just ban you for showing any right leaning opinions. Or any opinion that goes against their narrative. That’s not what tolerance is.

          That is because “the left” might have a few members that just so happen to be better read and have considered some of Popper’s writings.

          On such a note, I presume these right-leaning opinions aren’t about the virtues of conservative fiscal policy?

          There are many right wing views, views that are now sadly becoming more and more mainstream, that should not be tolerated. If right wingers had faced actual consequences when espousing their hatred of minorities, we might not be looking at a US government that wants to cozy up to Putin and distance their long term allies while stripping away the rights of US citizens.

              Depends.

              On your property, using your voice? Sure.

              At 2:30am, you yelling it 20ft from your neighbor’s house? Probably nor, mainly as it disturbs other people’s normal use of their home.

              On someone else’s property? Depends on if they allow it.

              In public, in the commons? Sure, as long as people are allowed to ignore you.

        Also, neither were designed specifically as such, unlike social sites like Truth. Plus, Twitter and Facebook are heavily dominated by right leaning groups.
