there are right wing instances?

[-] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 30 points 1 week ago

I'm not entirely shocked. They get kicked off mainstream sites regularly, they need somewhere for their echo chamber to exist.

Ah, so hilarious chaos IS a right wing instance?

[-] Squorlple@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Let’s take a look at HC’s local front page right now:

• First post is pro-Elon, uses “woke” as a derogatory term

• Second post is anti-science transphobia

• Third post is the same story as the first post, says a “hate crime” was committed by the “woke” person, article is on Breitbart [EDIT: fixed a typo I made here]

• Fourth post is ok, fairly normal, but posted by an avid poster for the site named Donald Musk

• Fifth post follows the suit of the fourth post

• Sixth post is transphobia for sports, article is on Breitbart

• Seventh post follows the suit of the fourth and fifth post

• Eighth post is by a news bot, headline says Israel is gonna keep doing what they do

• Ninth post is ok, just a banal joke

• Tenth post paints Tesla as a victim of violence, article is on Breitbart

• Eleventh post is saying most voters prefer moderate Democrats over “radical” AOC & Sanders, article is on Breitbart

• Twelfth post is anti-science transphobia

• Thirteenth post is by a news bot about Canada’s Carney’s plan (I don’t know enough about Canada’s politics to know where this guy stands on things)

• Fourteenth post is by a news bot about Anti-Trump rallies, headline seems politically neutral

• Fifteenth post is anti-science, pro-Trump, COVID conspiracy theories, article is on Breitbart

• Sixteenth post is ok, just a joke

• Seventeenth post is by an admin trying to save face by soliciting mods for a token leftwing community on their site, the only volunteer is one of the above posters of anti-science transphobia

• Eighteenth post is in German about some technology?

• Nineteenth post is by news bot about US attacking Yemen

Thank you for doing the dirty work

[-] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Yep, sounds about right. Thank you for your service!

[-] ModestCrab@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 week ago

Seems like a bot could do this job efficiently. Kinda like Reddit’s N-word bot

[-] felsiq@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 week ago

I’ve been completely unable to tell if they’re right wing or just a bunch of edgy 14 year olds, and I’ve been kinda reluctant to block them till I figure out which

[-] PDFuego@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Does it matter? If the edgy 14 year olds aren't contributing anything you consider worth your time then block them anyway.

The first "couple"? I see the porn subs that we defederate because the admin doesn't want to risk legal liability. There's the one tanky instance that they defederated before later deciding not to defederate tanky instances. There's the spam Reddit resharing instance. There's the two instances mentioned in this LW post, which seems to indicate it's about illegal content, not political alignment. That just leaves exploding heads, which was right-wing, but gave up hosting at all after everyone defedded them, and hilariouschaos.com. That one, I don't know, so I'll take your word that it's right-wing. But that only leaves one, not a couple.

[-] Squorlple@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

EH & HC (considered by many to be EH under a new name) are the two I was referring to. Tanky subs were an afterthought on my part.

[-] Gronk@aussie.zone 15 points 1 week ago

Im surprised the stupid fucks can still operate a computer/phone let a lone running an instance.

[-] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Tech bros are majority magats...

[-] BillyTheKid@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

I've worked at FAANGs. Most of the people I worked with there didn't subscribe to western politics. Just my experience.

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

People are still afraid to publicly (internally?) support Republicans, even though our CEO has endorsed them and we've hired some right-wing politicians for various roles

(That or truly very few people are Republican at FAANG)

The fact that you don't know about them says the system is working.

[-] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I couldn't take it anymore. I've had this alt for so many days now. I just got banned from a bunch of heir drumpfkins fluffer conservative communities today. I needed some entertainment to lift my spirits.

I watched a documentary about their ancestors while I commented freely. It's called Deliverance. You should check it out.

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

You got a purdy mouth

HilariousChaos’s conservative community is a safe space for thin skinned snowflakes you’re not missing much.

[-] KMAMURI@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Oh I know. I've been fucking with them for a while now. On various alts. Just some days you know...

[-] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 week ago

I think it's important to downvote them and even make them feel unwelcome. You can't let Nazis and white supremacists in your communities because any community that doesn't kick out Nazis will eventually find itself overrun by Nazis fleeing communities that kick them out.

You don't need to argue or make a fuss, but make sure to downvote anyone who doesn't believe all people are born equal and that people have a right to choose what to do and who to love.

The fastest block in the west 🤠

[-] ModestCrab@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 week ago

How about having to hug a relative with a right wing shirt?

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago

"ha ha funny shirt! But can you imagine people BELIEVE that lie?!? Classic Uncle Morty!"

[-] Psythik@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

Wouldn't happen because I cut those people out of my life.

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago

I'd jump in acid.

[-] CypherBorz@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

what are some right wing instances?

[-] amon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

truth social

[-] TheThrillOfTime@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I do think anyone on Lemmy is probably smarter than anyone on Reddit. I was browsing a conservative sub today and while they were very few comments, most of them disagreed with the general direction of the Trump administration.

[-] besselj@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago

I don't think user intelligence has as much to to with it as foreign interference and astroturfing campaigns, since its a larger platform

[-] floo@retrolemmy.com 5 points 1 week ago

And the bots. Don’t forget the bots.

[-] arakhis_@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago

at least there are some of them here, i havent seen them yet whatsoever

(I even feel like its way more progressive but also more "radical/chaotics" here and there since the communities are still more niche and therefore weighting feels off)

would love to read some "frustration" every now and then to see how my facebook grandparents would argue for example, lol

[-] Hegar@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago

Because obduration is just a much less useful school than evocation.
