Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I kind of wish there weren't so many extreme leftists on Lemmy. It's not even that I'm far away from them, politically speaking, but there's no way you can bring up Capitalism and not have angry people commenting AT you and downvotes galore.
I'm not even pro-captialism, I'm just not nearly as anti as they are and it is still nothing but hostility.
I said something positive about the USA a couple days ago and a moderator deleted my comment. The comment didn't violate any rules, he just didn't like it. The platform is what it is because it has been curated to be that way, not necessarily because everyone here feels that way. Comments that don't align with the hive mind get deleted.
