I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.
Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.
The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as “we’ll just handle it”) plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.
Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
It’s not a Lemmy thing, it’s an internet thing. People have become lazy and instead of discussing things will just vote and move on.
Makes for a very boring and stale world.
Agreed. I voted as soon as I saw the spelling mistake. We don’t applaud a tenor if he can’t clear his throat, as they say.
I’ve tried an instance without downvotes for a few days, it’s interesting to see views that would otherwise be heavily downvoted
How are you finding it? I generally hide vote counts and other social metrics where I can, but that’s not the same
Pretty good so far, I might advocate for this more
