I use Arch based distros btw.
Well afaik far right movements are supposed to be aggressive. That’s a part of their views.
Non aggressive leftists may exist but from my experience most of them are either aggressive or look nice only on the outside and are easy to make show their true personality. I guess that’s the kind of leftism that’s by far the most popular now.
I’m not very sure about that. I don’t get banned on literally every community for being right wing (even when I talk about it) but I do feel hostility coming from everyone. I understand that their opinion is way different to mine but if they act passively/actively aggressive towards other opinions (not just me), doesn’t it make them tankies automatically?
It’s just terrifying when you see a friend of yours imbibe that bullshit and suddenly call everyone they don’t like a commie…are they fascist now?
Nah it’s just far right and far left movements are similar. They do the same things to those with a different opinion. What makes leftists way more successful is their disguise. They claim to support very nice things and people believe them. But ultimately both of them want a dictatorship of their opinion. After all they’re on the ends of the political spectrum for a reason.
Honestly the entirety of Lemmy is far left so for them anything not far left is nazi. If you’re not far left, switch to a different platform or don’t talk about anything even remotely connected to politics.
Well in “far left” I mean “aggressively behaving left”. I’m not really up to date with the classification.
