I wouldn't say it's leftist, though there's a lot of leftists here. Lemmy is more like how internet discussion boards used to be. There's a lot of people with weird opinions on things, and there's no Reddit Karma pushing people to conform to the consensus. So people are going to have weird takes on things, and there's not 1000 comments upvoted above the weird ones, so you're going to see comments like that. So reply to with you your weird opinions on those weird comments.

Welcome to the version internet that's not pre-packaged and filtered to be bland!

Exactly. It's not "Leftist", it's just NOT fully of Nazis, and that's how far our standards have slipped.

Thats a huge downplay of what the actual Nazis did if you refer to right-leaning people as that.

The Republicans attempted a coup in the US and have spent the years since revoking minority rights all over the country. It took 2 tries to get Hitler into office, too, and they came for the immigrants first as well.
