    You can post anything and it will get down voted. Lemmy is as toxic as reddit and people use downvote as a tool to suppress what they don’t like, regardless of the merit of the comment.

      Downvoting doesn’t really suppress anything.

      Also you can effectivly disable it by switching to a frontend that hides votes and sorting by new. I think that’s even the default for some instances.

        This, and moreover some instances don’t dederate downvotes.

        I’m on Kbin so I only see downvotes from other people on kbin.

        People on Beehaw don’t see downvotes from anyone because it’s not a thing there.

    I’m currently commenting on all the Linux communities - “I don’t have this problem because I use Windows” and they’re not seeing the irony

    All the failed examples of communism that people say “that’s only because it wasn’t really communism” are really proof of why communism can’t work at all. If a system is what it does, then communism always creates facism.

    Edit: autocorrect originally changed it to “racism”. Still got upvote lol

      Every country that called itself communist claims to be working towards this, none have achieved it, most seem to have given up and instead settled on some form of authoritarianism and/or capitalism while claiming they are still working towards this goal.

    Anywhere on lemmy? That should be easy. Basically go to any niche community and shit on their central theme.

    For example explain how windows is the superior OS on a linux instance. Or say you use chrome on a privacy instance.
