Hello. Can I please make my internet experience both echoier and chamberier than it already is because it makes me sad when I encounter someone online who has different thoughts to me.
I too would prefer an Internet flooded with ~~different thoughts~~ bad faith trolls.
Like .ml admins cracking down on people suggesting that Mao's "Great Leap Forward" was catastrophe because it forced a political will ignorant of economic reality on a society violently robbed of the ability to resist, even terrorised into meeting their quotas at any cost? Or the fact that purging and suppressing all dissidents in the first place was cruel and authoritarian, a brutal abuse of power of the same kind as Stalin's and (in this one aspect, at least) Hitler's?
I'm a leftist to the bone, I recognise that a revolution without bloodshed wouldn't have been possible at the time (and maybe never will be) and that a hard hand forcing fundamental changes to the political and educational system may well be required, but .ml has a well-known Tankie problem and they're all too eager to follow in the steps of the boots they so love to lick.
Good point, that's why they ban you on their instance when you write a counter argument.
That's another reason of becoming independent.
i dont watch shows i know i wont like on netflix. guess im in a echo chamber there too.
Sure, just spend all your time on lemmy.ml and that's exactly what you'll get.
Every community is an echo chamber except for mine!
Have you actually been to lemmy.ml? They enforce vague rules to maintain their echo chamber
