When scrolling Lemmy (compared to reddit in the past), all I see is doom and gloom / news. I don't see interesting conversations or comments to read.

Occasionally I'll find something, and I've been contributing more, but there's just so much doom that it fills my feed.

I've had to unsubscribe from many communities bc it's just doom news reposts..

Is it just me?

My comment was completely neutral in tone, why are you so angry?

I also stated plenty of opinions which are exactly that, opinions, not facts, and was curious what you would say about them.

I asked if you are Chinese or Russian because your English and typing style reminds me of Eastern European friends I have in Lithuania, Russia, and Ukraine. They all tend to type in a very similar way but with differences in word choice and varying degrees of English skill. I offered the choice of Chinese because you seem to be using Russian/Chinese/Indian anti-NATO talking points, but you don't speak as the latter two.

Now I'm curious, what country have you spent the most living time in?

I'm also curious, would you say that along with Putin being a despot, he is an authoritarian dictator tyrant who frequently has those murdered who go against his policies in order to stay in power, and has rigged the past few elections and has also rigged the current election?

I was actually bit too angry. I just can't stand ppl who ask without bothering to read previous messages. I believe your nationality curiousity is genuine, but don't u think that trivializes a rational discussion? U know ppl discredit ideas based in origin.

I spent my whole life 50/50 in two western european countries that are very far away from each other. What about u?

I advocate for peace of mankind. If I was born in China I would support Tibet and uygurs. But as european I first criticise our own evil acts, Nato expansionism, selective intervention in Africa and Middle East as well as the original goal to fight russians.

Putin would be the person I would hate the most if I was born in Russia. All your statements are proved true. That's just how it works in those countries. Instead in the west big business and banks literally buy political agenda.

Instead of slaughtering opposition at home we get foreign opposition killed, like when our big old ally Gadafi threatened the dollar with a new gold-based african currency. Like when our other old ally Hussein rejected western agenda. Like when Yugoslavia was deciding if it would perhaps embrace communism. Like when 'Al Qaeda is in Yemen', in other words houthis are close to control Yemen with it's critical implications in the trade route. Never intervene but support palestinian or african genocides. Those are some million war deads, all thanks to Nato selective intervention.

Numbers (of dead ppl, including non western lives) is what I put in the balance when judging what evil means. I prefer to criticise first home evil before facing foreign.
