Hi lemmy! So this is kind of controversial, but hear me out. Let me start off by saying I’ve been on a few reddit alternatives, as I’ve mentioned in different posts, and I’ve seen language that is very hateful. I was disgusted by the language, but after seeing it over and over again, I just got sad. These people only know fear and hatred. I’m not sure anyone’s shown them kindness.

Should we be kind to those that we disagree with or that use hateful speech?

    Oh, don’t worry we have plenty of hatred of the rich and the powerful available ;) ;)

    More seriously, i’m always open to answer good-faith questions, even when they’re framed from a very reactionary perspective. But many you have to draw the line because what appears to be good-faith questions is in fact a psyops led by an actual neofascist group trying to infiltrate public forums (entryism).
