    Well I mean your admin provided a pretty good reason below, couldn’t argue the point so just screamed racist!!! and probably raged in their chair they couldn’t ban me

    This video never gets old, made 6 years old and still relevant as ever

    I’m a centre-left labor voter irl who voted in favour of tackling climate change, 50c public transport and free school lunches, but when I come here apparently i’m hitler

    Reality is that Mastodon/fediverse is at trump levels of echo chamber except with left wing progressives, and in the case of lemmy.ml … left wing regressives

    my banned account on Mastodon for climate change denialism despite having solar panels, solar battery, ev a full electric house and i’ve used ecosia for years now shows how absurd this place can be if you don’t join in the circlejerk

    i’m actually surprised i haven’t been banned, aussie.zone is cool, hopefully more people come over

    Well if you let this continue then the actions of ‘some of their cohort’ end up causing quite a bit of damage! See Europe right now which is dealing with a huge crime wave because of ‘some of their cohort’ and the majority of countries are now anti-immigrant.

    Spread of gang violence wrecks Sweden’s peaceful image

    Swedish police do not currently map gang members’ nationalities, but research for the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention in 2021 showed young people born in Sweden to two parents from abroad were overrepresented as suspects in murder cases and robberies.

    So if you’re pro-immigration then your best bet is to restrict immigration down to countries and cultures that match our values, importing immigrants from Palestine will for example result in the country regressing backwards politically, but you probably think that’s racist so you’re in quite a conundrum!

    Can’t support open immigration because that ultimately results in closed borders after increased crime/violence vs Can’t support restricting immigration to countries that share our values because that would make you racist.

    Tough times.

    btw @Nath@aussie.zone I blocked this instance:

    But this persons posts are still showing up? Shouldn’t they be blocked?

    With Reddit finally making money, anyone who doesn’t like this side of Reddit will either learn to accept it or leave.

    It’s tough, I don’t find much value in the decentralisation of a link aggregator, but there’s no reddit alternative and the ones that were made before were filled to the brim with right wing nutters.

    This place is on the side, far too left wing progressive for my liking but I’m relying on it and the whirlpool forums until something better comes along.
