Anytime I see a ~~trash~~ post that’s where it comes from 9/10.
It's 40% of the whole Lemmy userbase and activity. They've got their fair share of trolls but come on, the worst? Have you forgotten about redditors?
It's hard to be the biggest, and I think their admins are doing a pretty good job.
I saw a fellow mod outright nazi-ing about ( not “saying things I disagree with” but actual nazi fanboy-ing)

I see your point, but I would argue that in a world with nuclear weapons, climate change, and all sorts of shit that seems to be an existential risk, plus the media barrage, people today aren't exactly feeling safe or comfortable. Hence the desperate hoarding of resources and brutal competition.
Agreed. It just seems more absurd now because of the contrast between our advanced technology and our primitive sociopolitical structures.
Primitive metallurgy was used to create weapons for millennia before it became commonly used for cookware. Technology has always been primarily used as vector for human beings to control and dominate one another, rather than to assist/improve society.
You could also try the Scaled algorithm, which was recently added with the new update. It's supposed to adjust for the size of the community so that the posts from large communities don't overwhelm your feed

I meant what I said. Most people disagree with the comment, but probably for a wide variety of reasons. It's not a singular reaction, it's multiple reactions to multiple insinuations that all happen to be questionable.
Pretty sure the person you're responding to is referring to Saruman infiltrating the Shire at the end of the series, not Gandalf.
That comment somehow manages to be more divisive than the Palestinian conflict. A truly remarkable sequence of specious assertions that is guaranteed to piss off vast swathes of the population. Almost brings a tear to my eye
Why not provide it to everyone else?
