Proof? Or is disagreement with you enough?

I don't know where you got that opinion from. An echo chamber is an echo chamber and I think it's a shame regardless of which flavour it is.

I'm here for open debate and freedom of expression, knowing that will mean having to see and read things I don't like every now and again.

If other people want to block other users up to the point there's no one else that has a different opinion to them, then they absolutely can do that but I thinks it's just being an ostrich that sticks it's head in the sand.

I don't like Trump or Musk, I just keep my head when all else about are losing theirs. Enjoy your echo chamber, must be nice when there's no-one that has a different opinion or disagrees with you.

Genius.

Enlightened centrist?

I consider my self a lefty, but I think it's important to consider all points of view, especially when I disagree with them.

If people have been previously calling other people nazis excessively (i have seen people call a huge part of lemmy fascists), it doesnt mean anything the next time someone says there is a nazi

[email protected]

What about people calling anyone who disagrees with them or any mod that bans them nazis?

Moving towards nazisn?

Someone who got dangerously close to winning an election claimed the founder of a fascist party and a fascist dictator (both helped cause the Holocaust in Romania ) were national heroes

A nazi salute would be a step backwards. We are already there

You can consider the nazi point of view (do you really need to though?) without defending nazis' right to spew their bullshit.

And let's face it, even if lemmy was 100% leftists, the rest of the world is fascist as fuck so it'll never be an echo chamber.

The only speech I don't defend is hate speech. Everything else must be fair game, not matter how much I personally don't like it or how much I disagree.

[email protected]

Fascism implies hate speech, and that's what the "right" is all about in most countries right now.

I think that's a broad brush to paint with and that the majority of people identifying with right wing politics are in reality rather moderate.

You could argue that the moderate right enable the extreme right but that's a different debate.

[email protected]

That is good, but what value do they bring?

[email protected]

The nazi's what?

[email protected]

that's what

[email protected]

No no no you don't understand. It's the cult of people who call anybody who does a weird salute or mildly dislikes Jewish people or brown people and wants to declassify women as people with rights as a Nazi. Don't you see it's both sides that are extremist. You're just giving in to left wing propaganda...

Who amongst us hasn't mistakenly made what looks like a Nazi salute, twice, in front of a crowd whilst doing a speech, been wrongfully interpreted as an AfD supporter after having said "I support the AfD" or made posts claiming that Jews do bad things which were unfairly seen as antisemitic?

It could happen to anybody!
