I took your comment to mean you didn't think we had enough Nazis on Lemmy, to which I will respond hostile towards. If you are anti-Nazi then you should not use the idea of an anti-Nazi comment to illustrate this fake idea of to narrow of political viewpoints on Lemmy.

Also, debating fascism is a whole different thing than people giving you shit over your choice of browser or Lemmy client. You shouldn't conflate the two.

    I don't think any comments in this thread have referred to Nazis or fascism, other than yours. Nobody here is disagreeing that those things are bad.

    I used your comment as an illustration that Lemmy has a tiny Overton window: when anyone comments outside the window, they're smacked down. Instead of asking the original commenter for clarification, your comment suggested they want Nazis on the platform. That was a good illustration of my point.

    Your comments in this thread only make sense if you assume the worst about other Lemmites. Please don't do that. If there's ambiguity, there's no need to assume we're douche wagons. Maybe ask for clarification. Make a friendly joke? I dunno.

    You implied that my anti-Nazi comment from a different post was somehow a negative, thus making this thread about Nazis/fascism. It was a poor example of what I think you wanted to convey in terms of how you see political discourse on Lemmy.

    You also for some reason see Nazis the same as people that disagree or down vote you about browser choice. That seems like a giant leap, and conflating the two is painting Lemmy with a broad brush. They are two wildly different issues and deserve different discussions as to why.

    And my original comment came from someone that just stated that Fediverse was worse than the Commercial versions that are havens for fascists. And also the fact they track you around the Internet. So I did ask the question, and now you're trying to turn this into some kind of douche wagon rodeo apparently.
