    And Republicans continue to say the Left is the ones responsible for fomenting political violence.

    That’s no contradiction. They say is with the expliciet intent to distort the discussion to support their violence.

      Sometimes I complain about how Lemmy folks don’t get jokes and argue about everything, but the reason I’m never leaving is probably related: people just get it around here.

        Being on Lemmy in the first place requires a certain sort of situational awareness. It’s full of people who looked at Facebook, and Reddit, and Xitter, and said “man something’s not right here” and then took actions about it.

        Statistically speaking, Lemmy users are more likely to be clued in about more things than your average internet user.
