    Nah Lemmy in particular is a worse dump than Miyazaki’s poison swamps. The level of zeal on lemmy is staggering (I mean, it’s already resulted in one terrorist attack)

    I feel like this is because it’s much smaller than alternatives. It starts to feel like you’re circlejerking the same dicks every day.

      Source?

      And I don’t think it’s necessarily worse, but it really depends on the community and instance. Hexbear, ml, and lemmygrad are absolute dumpster fires, but the other instances are a lot more chill. But each has its own form of group think.

        The anti natalist dude who attacked a fertilization center was a lemmy radical.

        Want a source? Look at the SS Headquarters (also known as lemmy.world)

          OK, here’s the best source I could find. According to one of the comments there, he was active for a month in 2023 when the Reddit API thing happened, and that’s it.

          So yes, he technically was on Lemmy, but “a Lemmy radical” doesn’t really fit since he was only here for a short time along with a bunch of other protesters. If anything, he’s probably a Reddit radical.
