Im becoming unsettled. Maybe a few memes total on first two pages. How could things go so bad? Where are the yester beans gone?

    Yeah that’s unfortunate. I joined that community to listen to concerns of my compatriots.

      The amount of polarization right now is pretty concerning. People can’t imagine how someone could possibly have a different view. Conservatives and progressives both see the other as dumb and extreme. I don’t need to agree with someone to understand where there beliefs come from.

        Whoop! There it is. I’ve definitely been guilty, up until very recently. It’s time to wake up, now. I’d wager we’ve all been asleep at the wheel, for decades, now.

        No, I will stay and hope our conservative brothers and sisters return and we can welcome them with healthy dialogue. It’s a multilane two-way information superhighway. We can visit each others ’ spaces and stay in our lanes, unless we use turn signals, like responsible, respectable drivers.

          With the mod team driving the current environment you’re very likely better off building somewhere new. It’s the main benefit of the fediverse after all

            Easier isn’t necessity better. Let’s wait and see if “left” can stop behaving like ultraright*.
