Is there a "normie" or more mainstream instance for Lemmy?

Roughly speaking, Lemm.ee is more libertarian some libright. Slrpnk is libleft but is home to pleasant politics community. Dbzer0 is anarchy leftist. World is closest to US centrist. Lemmy.ca is kind of Reddit's onguardforthee vibe, Left/NDP wing.

Thing is that influences from other more ideological instances will make it onto All threads. "Lib-shaming" is something some folks at lemmy.ml, hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml like to do frequently, which is where those experiences might have come from.

I mean, if you don't want to dismantle capitalism, I'm not sure I want you around, anyway.

And you shouldn't feel "nervous". If someone is unable to defend themselves against ideals they don't subscribe to, they should work on their defense instead of running to an echo chamber. Debate us s crucial part of human nature.

Agreed. I got lost at 'Reddit is left...'
Huh?

Lemmy world left???? Lol they’re milquetoast liberals and capitalism is garbage. Your friend needs to grow up.

Uuh, I don't have any good instances to recommend. But my advice is to skip the politics and news communities. I mean it's difficult these days anyways. But also here on Lemmy, they're not very good.

I've found that for those moving from reddit, sh.itjust.works seems to be pretty accessible

Actually that was my instinctual thought as well. Though, I might be primed as a result of some of the responses.

Lib shaming is for good reason as the US and most of the western world falls to fascism thanks to libs creating the material conditions for it.

Much appreciated!

Yeah, I think .world is the biggest and so I'd love that to be the "base" but even responses here go to "if you ain't against capitalism, I don't want you here."

Thanks, I'll take a look!

You'd have to show who specifically was yelling. You see everyone from all instances they're federated with. They might not have even been from Lemmy.world.

are they really anti-capitalism?

or just calling for properly regulated capitalism?

Not everyone wants to spend social media arguing with people. We have things to do. It's not a particularly pleasant environment sometimes abd believe it or not, that bothers people.

Check the various compatible kbin and mbin servers as well. I'm posting from fedia.io, an mbin server

Yeah, this is exactly the childish annoyances and unpleasantness I'm talking about.

To my American eyes and English speaking self, I assumed it was associated with communism. (I don't think it's bad or anything.)

[email protected]

Sorry, it wasn't clear to me. Are you saying that your first association of the name Communick is with "Communism"?

^Damn, I might need to get a new domain...^

I'm not American.

Lemmy is much farther left than any of our national discourse.

I get that American parties are farther Right than most but the discourse here is much farther Left than almost all political discourse. (Show me a serious party in a position of power in a Western democracy committed to ending capitalism.)

I have to say it again:

Fascists promise to do fascist things
Americans elect fascists
Fascists do fascist things
HOW COULD DEMOCRATS DO THIS???
