It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.
I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.
It’s ironic that one of the main points of Marxist communist theory is that communists shouldn’t actually need to do anything to make communism come about, that it will just be a natural evolution of a capitalist economy over time. And now it’s wound up being used as a synonym for totalitarianism.
