    I’ve noticed that if you’re center or center-right here you get downvoted to oblivion or outright have your comments deleted by mods. It’s not really advertised, people have to find out the hard way. At least reddit has TrueUnpopularOpinion for people across the political spectrum to discuss with each other, and there’s nothing similar here at all.

      according to other commenters, it’s different across instances. I personally don’t like to talk about politics, except how it affects me, so I think I’ll be fine. also reddit is weird no matter what sub you go, and according to others, the mods tend to be more chill here, so if comments get removed, chances are (ACCORDING TO OTHERS)

      A) You’re not adding to discussion

      B) You’re being rude

      C) You’re on an instance that doesn’t like your opinion, swap instances possibly?

      I don’t know much about lemmy though, I’m new to it. Correct me where I’m wrong.

      Other users have also said if someone is not worth talking to, they downvote them. If you come across as toxic, mean, etc, to me, I will not interact with you.

      Complaining about “violent antifa psychos” isn’t really constructive discussion, it’s just open admission to being against antifascism.
