It's not a direct criticism, it's an inferrential exploration, meaning that there are many communities on lemmy.ml that are filled with similar comments, which it is.

Terrible, shithole instance that needs to be forgotten from the internet.

A what?

there are many communities on lemmy.ml that are filled with similar comments

Then why didn’t OP post a screenshot of one of them?

Why resort to a strawman?

It’s really not that deep.

I was going to post the screenshot anyways. And when I had to think of a title, I thought “huh, I’ve seen similar stuff on .ml, I’ll add that to make the title interesting”

If you want to criticize what is said on Lemmy.ml, criticize something that is actually said on Lemmy.ml.

Taking cheap shots at your political opponents (like comparing them to this obvious bait account from the cesspit that is Twitter) just makes your side look bad.

It makes it look like you don’t have any real arguments.

LOL.

It’s just a meme dude I don’t think anyone but you cares that much. I’ve clearly struck a nerve though.

No, it’s political propaganda.

Please touch grass

It's not propaganda, it doesn't have an ulterior motive. It is plainly stating lemmy.ml users are a special kind of bad.

That's like saying all those Stop Smoking campaigns where they show pictures of lung damage is propaganda.

80% of the users I have blocked this month were from lemmy.ml, I think that's all the proof I need.
