I noticed that a lot of my friends who are really online think that everyone will always agree with them.

My theory is that this happens because they are used to their algorithm only showing them content/comments of things they agree with and since that makes the bulk of interactions with other people, they think everyone is like that.

Also dehumanizing people who they aren't politically aligned with. I think that people who "touch grass" more often, deal with people all over the political spectrum so they can separate the human side from the politics side.

These are just my theories btw I don't have evidence aside from my anecdotes. A sample pool of like 10 people lol so clearly not enough

Doesn't really matter if there's an algorithm present, Lemmy is pretty unified in their opinions too.

Also dehumanizing people who they aren’t politically aligned with.

My time touring Lemmy has taught me that conservative leaning people are hateful racist tankie nazi fascists who are all brainwashed by Russian propaganda campaigns to want nothing more than to [checks notes] genocide marginalized groups and destroy the ecosystem. Simple as that!
