So I’ve tried Mastodon, Pixelfed and didn’t like them. Mastodon is nice if you wanna ”tweet”, but that’s not for me. Pixelfed was dead.

I quit Meta because of tech bro fascism, and hated Twitter even before it was X because, let’s face it - nobody has ever changed their opinion on anything because of a Twitter conversation (I know I’m exaggerating, to get my point across). I was in Reddit for a few weeks, and the conversations there seem mostly friendly and constructive, but I decided I don’t want to have anything to do with social media corporations. Besides, I noticed I could scroll endlessly. And that’s not good for me.

Lemmy seems nice. There are still some topics I’m interested in that don’t have active communities, and I’m still learning on how to have my feed from multiple instances. But still, this is the way to go for me.

Against algorithms, against fascism, for free internet. Thanks for coming to my boring Ted talk and have a nice day.

Liberals are socially leftist. LGBTQ stuff, women empowerment, environment stuff, pro universal healthcare, …

Until the second it becomes evident that they might have to stand up for any of that.

Nah, America really spread a lot of information throughout the world on these things. So much even that people got sick of it.

America is all about branding, sure they might not structurally provide a good system for these people, but they do grant them a good brand to use.

The public opinion of these people have mooned quite a bit.

If your own child was on the LGBT+ spectrum and was right now in the US, your take would have been way different.
