I am seeing this pattern a lot lately, whenever a person disagrees strongly or expresses conservative/right wing views, they are told to go back to reddit.
You can say ‘Don’t bring these bullshit views to the fediverse,’ or something of that sort. I am a reddit refugee myself, and part of the Reddit API exodus. Being told to go someplace I just left due to ethical reasons feels bad. So, I want to understand why it is being used as a retort. Is it really rude, or am I making a fuss out of nothing?
Edit 1: I am NOT defending conservative views, I think that they should not be given a platform in the fediverse. I am questioning how telling them to go back to reddit is a valid response.
Edit2 : Edited the the title to better represent my question.
“Agree with me or leave.”
No. All Nazis should be shot.
You people like crying “nazi!” every time someone disagrees with you on a political issue so you can silence them.
Eh-hem.
NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF.
The statement you replied to was specifically about Nazi punks a well documented issue? Are you fucking illiterate?
The problem is that people like you will lie about who is a nazi in order to silence them. This, in turn, devolves into a culture of “agree with me or leave.”
Lol, irony.
Who is people like me? Non whites? Who have I called a nazi? You replied to a post about nazi punks (a hyper well documented phenomenon) and how punks have to make it clear they are not welcome much like bars to avoid becoming nazi bars. What is your point? Nazis should be welcome? Because your spiel about mislabeling isn’t relevant.
Except it is. If people didn’t regularly do what I’m accusing them of, then you’d have a point.
So what’s your solution? Just accept all the Nazis for fear of it really being a mistake? That’s how you get a nazi bar.
Solution to what? I said his stance amounts to agree with him or leave and explained why.
A better question would be, what’s your problem?
