Well that's some thorny insight.
It's true tho. Calling for violence or people's death is normal here, no nuance in the discussion, it feels like very few people are there to discuss, rather than validate their own, cemented opinions.
Define "here". The acceptance for that sort of thing can vary wildly between communities and, IMHO more significantly, instances.
If you see such posts, stop and see which instance they're posted from. You might see some patterns.
Well, it wasn't hexbear or the other one if you are asking about that. It was one on the Blahaj zone, which supposedly is a chill instance, and yet plenty of hate.
I agree, the amount of "This person needs to die" is crazy here.
There is even less room for a nuanced discussion of anything.
