Cowbee thank you for the thoughtful and insightful reply. I wasnt aware of the roots of Lemmy being Marxist or a mix of the two. I appreciate you representing what brought me to Lemmy and away from Reddit which is having a discussion and not down voting and insulting users for a genuine realization. Reddit is a hateful nasty place and many of us left bc of that. So thanks for not being like them

    That's precisely my argument. Voting motivations are not always rooted in animosity. Regardless of downvotes, I maintain my position. I have close friends with opposing political views who remain deeply loyal to one another. My intention was not to endorse any particular viewpoint, but rather to advocate against generalizations. I find it perplexing that this perspective has drawn negative feedback from both sides of the political spectrum.

    This is my only account and not sure what your eluding to here honestly. I don't comment often nor do I spend much time on social media as I have a career and family to tend to. I still stand by my comment and have nothing to hide.

    It's silly to me to see either side point a finger and say "they do this or that" . The minute you categorized a single person as a group you already lost the argument. This applies to both sides. Don't be a fool and decide that if your friend votes differently than you that it's an attack on you personally. There are only 2 main voted for parties with many different stances on many different things all lumped into a party. Just bc you're in part A doesn't mean you agree with all of it.

    I agree that if you don't like it then just gift it to a neighbor or friend. If you must find a way personally I would mix it with some other roast that counters it like a strong bitter dark roast. Then figure out the meh roast to dark roast ratio preference and bam problem sorta solved
