[+] viking@infosec.pub -17 points 2 years ago (4 children) No, I said I don't want to talk about politics and politicize every single discussion. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] ZeroCool@slrpnk.net 46 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children) And yet here you are… the only person in the comment section mentioning politics. In my experience people like you who take every opportunity to complain about a site/user base being “too political” are only upset their own views are unpopular. Political discussion tends to magically become acceptable when they agree with the prevailing sentiment. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] LucidNightmare@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago I agree with you. The people who say, “I don’t like to talk about politics” are the ones who have the worst opinions about shit and know they will get called out and god forbid anyone not like my opinions! permalink fedilink source parent [+] Squizzy@lemmy.world -8 points 2 years ago It's a fair criticism and on topic, you are allowed to disagree without jumping down his throat. Left leaning people are more likely to be adventurous and educated, too things that would lead someone to a new site with a tech savvy user base. permalink fedilink source parent [+] viking@infosec.pub -15 points 2 years ago (1 child) Nope, I don't engage in any such discussion unless forced to, in which case I make my point and withdraw. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago That's not what we're seeing. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago Shame life is political eh? permalink fedilink source parent [–] zzzeyez@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago i wish i wasn't homeless so that i could just plug my ears like you permalink fedilink source parent [+] abbadon420@lemm.ee -11 points 2 years ago (1 child) You shouldn't have mentioned it.

The code was made by Marxist–Leninist, or at least people claiming to be.
