Lemmy users decry this while almost constantly demonizing all right-wingers as soulless racist misogynists. Anytime I suggest that right wingers might be more complex than a caricature of a 1960s villain, it goes over like a lead balloon.
The rhetoric is exactly as divisive on both sides and leads directly to politicians feeling comfortable calling for a civil war. It all feeds into the frenzy.
Lol I’m sure that will change your mind, and it won’t devolve into me saying “people that vote for the GOP aren’t a monolithic group of evil tyrants” and you saying “all right wingers are vermin that should be extinguished”, I definitely haven’t had that same conversation 10 times on lemmy

They have yet to display any complexity other than “fuck the libs.”
Yep, their only goals in life are to destroy the planet and kill liberals.
Perhaps you would like to share some of these goals?

Cool, so you don’t have any.
Lol sure buddy, until I prove otherwise, 50% of voters have no goals other than to kill and destroy. Totally reasonable viewpoint to have.
