I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.
Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.
The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as “we’ll just handle it”) plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.
Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
I wish there was an option to judge the content independently of form. A 2 types of karma kind of system.
There are times I strongly disagree with the idea behind the post, but it’s really nicely written. And then there are other times when I agree with the general gist of a post, but OP is still a dick and deserves a slap.
It wouldn’t matter. You could have 20 different metrics to rate a post and people would use all 20 to bury things they didn’t like.
