Is it bots? Are those humans whos mission is to cause chaos? Is the weird behaviour caused by the creation of the concept of lemmy?

Somebody please explain to me wtf is going on.

They answer destructive comments, assuming shit, demanding shit. Are they trolls?

Are they being paid for causing chaos? It’s insane

Questioning your mainstream/western/capitalist beliefs and arguing about it

I wish that's what they actually did. Instead we get 12 year-old Twitch chatters pretending to be wiser than thou punching down

I have yet to see any egregious behavior

Lucky you!

But that's another complaint without providing actual examples. I could just as easily complain about the same things from liberal lemmy.world posters.

Fair enough. I wish I had saved the thread that time I got piled on by 40 Hexbear and .ml users acting like children when they misunderstood my point about communism. It would've been a great example of their pretentious and shallow meme culture.

I'm sorry to hear that you had that experience. I can imagine that the tendency of some people online to pile on is only magnified and strengthened when socialists and communists who feel that their ideology has been unjustly maligned and distorted for the last several decades finally find a group of people who think like they do.

How about the comment further up - "daily dot world self-soothing thread" ?

[-] xapr@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 week ago

I don't understand. Are you referring to another comment on this thread? I don't find another comment here doing a search for either daily or soothing. Link?

[-] mindlesscrollyparrot@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago

A reply to the original post, from a lemmy.ml account. I blocked them, so I can't link you to it.

I see, thanks. I'll see if I can find it.
