Yeah the conservative community is a trainwreck. Thats every conservative community though not just the one on hc. I blocked it when they first announced it lmao because I knew exactly what it would turn into. Probably why I haven't seen any of the right wing extremism stuff people keep talking about lol
Yeah trolling is a whatever issue for me, I'm not bothered by it. I haven't seen any right wing extremism stuff. I am blatantly leftist and haven't been kicked out of hc. I think tolerance of leftism sorta disqualifies it from being extremist lmao. I didn't realise so many instances de-federated from hc. When I had my account deleted from lemm.ee with no warning for expressing my disapproval of moderators I joined hc. I'd had fun interactions with Alice before and the instance description stated they had a free speech policy (paraphrasing) so I joined up. There's a few things I dislike such as downvotes not being visible but when I brought that up the whole community actually had a discussion about it which I'd never experienced before and made me feel like I was actually part of a community. I'll think about trying out another instance to see if being de-federated from really bothers me. Ideally I want to be able to talk with as many people as possible.
Outsider perspective 2nd amendment is a joke, the only thing it guarantees is a disproportionate level of gun crime and perpetuates a police culture of kill or be killed.
The reality is there are more lazy people than mislead people. Getting rid of compulsory voting increases the fraction of mislead people voting. See American voter turnouts for reference.
I derive a sick pleasure from seeing people I dislike die. Hihehohohiho
