    Wow. I consider myself a pretty frequent user of Lemmy, and I have no idea what they’re talking about here. Any of it. And if it doesn’t concern me, then it sure as fuck doesn’t concern any “normies”. Normies aren’t doing deep dives into Lemmy politics. They don’t know, and they don’t care—just like I don’t. It’s a classic case of taking a personal vendetta and pretending it’s some grand crusade for decency and normality.

    This is the worst case of needing to touch grass I’ve ever seen. Maybe before posting something like that, go take a walk first? Get some fresh air.
