    I’m posting a link to a news article. Calm down. I’m not even conservative. I think all points of view should be allowed. Lemmy is mostly left-leaning and posts from left news orgs, so I think it’s totally fine to post articles from central- and right-leaning news orgs.

    I’m independent, third party supporter. And if you think a point of view from a news org shouldn’t be allowed, just because it’s a right-learning news org, then I think that’s a form of censorship.

    So stop with the “ohr my gawd, ur defending!” crap. I’m posting a fucking link to a news article.

    Also I just wanna point out: Lemmy has NO influence in the real world. No one even fucking knows about us. So stop thinking this is some propaganda thing too. The news orgs i am posting from have way way more hits/views/clicks than Lemmy ever will. lol

    Having said that, fuck the duopoly! Dems and Repubs suck capitalist cock. And if you post a news article from a left-leaning news org, would it be fair for me to say you are supporting the duopoly and the dems?!

    Wake the fuck up.

      I think we both actually support the same thing, I just get mad when people try to give conservative shit any views at all anywhere. They are very clearly the greater of the two evils. If the Republican party fell, the Democrats would just capitulate to whoever took over.

      The way you talk and posts just reaks of conservative brainwashing. If you really hate the two party system, you’d be dismantling and censoring every Republican thing you can, cause the Democrats are weak, they’d capitulate to whoever comes into power after the Republicans fell. I’ve seen all your post history and comment history, you just seem like a sock pretending to hate the two party system after you get pushed.

        censoring every Republican thing you can,

        I don’t believe in censorship though. You know, people don’t have to actually click on the links. You’re not being forced to read them. Do you realize how few people are even on Lemmy? You act like posting a link to a news article is poison to the mind or something.

        No one who is on Lemmy is gonna suddently turn conservative and be brainwashed because hey see some conservative views on Lemmy! Lemmy is the nerdier, incel-er, anti-social-er, MUCH SMALLER version of Reddit. lol

        you just seem like a sock pretending to hate the two party system after you get pushed.

        But why would I do that? What would I possibly get out of pretending. Why would I post views (including anti-republican) from all parties if I were just conservative?

        There’s no reason to “pretend” to hate the two party system. What is the total user count of Lemmy? Isn’t it something like 50K total active user or something?

        Lemmy’s active community of about 50K to 70K active users is well under 1% of Reddit’s user base. Less than 1%. lol So why would I lie, and why would you be upset about what I post. There is no one here! lmao

        If I wanted to be a Republican, I’d just say so. There’s no payoff in pretending. A person who’s secretly conservative wouldn’t spend time posting criticism of Republicans or sharing viewpoints from every side. That makes no sense on its face.

        There’s no incentive to run some long con for a crowd this size. I post what I believe in the moment. I don’t need a disguise and I don’t get anything from faking a position.

        Both major parties look the same to me in how they act and how they treat people. The only real difference I notice on Lemmy is that some of the loudest Democrat-aligned users come off more aggressive than the Republican ones.

        I’ll keep saying what I want to say. If someone doesn’t like it, they can block me. Nothing I’m doing requires lies, tricks, or a hidden agenda, especially not on fucking Lemmy. LMAO
