I got banned from there when they made a stickied post saying, basically, “this is not an echo chamber, it’s just a place where we only want to hear what we like” and I replied “you just described an echo chamber.”
I’m sure that got removed, as you had no flair, so they couldn’t confirm you had the correct opinions for their not-an-echochamber.
An echo chamber technically needs to amplify and distort input to meet the criticism.
Yeah exactly! I totally agree with you! Isn’t it awesome being so awesome!!
The rabble agreeing with everything is basically that. To be completely honest lemmy is very echo-ey as well. Except most of us are just agreeing that these lunatics are indeed irrational and completely brainwashed to the point of literally harming themselves, their families and society.
I don’t like this definition of echo chamber as any group with similar opinions. If those opinions are based on facts and expert advice I don’t think it applies anymore. To me an echo chamber in the dangerous sense is when people have a dangerous or uninformed consensus because they don’t let facts or advice from outside reach them. That’s very different than people with similar opinions finding each other. The latter is just how humans are.
This post should be pinned on some Wall of Shame.

Reality is hostile to conservative opinions.
I love when conservatives pull the “you’re not being very tolerant” to me. BITCH I NEVER SAID I TOLERATED STUPID also tolerance of nazis is how you get more nazis.

Anonymous
why censor the usernames? they posted it to the Internet or their own volition
And it’s pseudo anon anyway/unreliable info anyway
Pussy liberals is why. “Oh no! We must not dox these people! That would not be fair!”
Fuck. Them. I’m done playing fair. Go after every one of them, tooth and nail, every way you can.
You got downvoted but I agree, problem with ppl like this is that they never get a reality check to the head so they keep on being retards lol
Not to mention that this is Reddit, none of them have their real names as profile names
Nazis gonna not see.
NOT SEE, Carl!
r/Conservative delenda est
And now they’re apparently starting to set up shop on Lemmy too. Before I blocked it, I saw they’re on their best behaviour too. But mark my words, once the dating and flirting period is over, their shoes are going to come off and their feet are going to be up on the table.
I would’ve hoped that by now everyone would’ve learnt their lesson to never trust or listen to these people again. They flat out lie when they’re talking about things like ‘freedom’ and once they’re in power, they serve themselves and fuck over everyone else in society. And their leaders, that they don’t mind associating with and supporting are a bunch of inbred kiddie fiddlers and have been since long before Trump. And yet here we are again, letting them have a seat at the table.
These people cannot be fucking trusted. And I’m willing to bet that they’re going to be a source of a lot of downvote trolling too, in queer communities and women-centric communities.
Relax. This is just the internet. You’re taking trolls for real persons.
Which community? One of them is now under new management and turned satirical
Could be one of those that I saw this morning, I guess. In world. It was a ‘reasonable’ post complaining about Trump. I just block them as I see them now tbh. Even the_donald started as satire.
The whole idea is that it does not turn into another the_Donald, but I perfectly understand your caution. There’s still users trying to post “in earnest” (according to them at least), but they get ratio’d so it’s not as bad as you might think.
Anyway, not here to tell you what to block and what not, but I figured you might be interested in the story that it went from a snowflake safe space to a satirical meme community :)
i blocked conservative instance on lemmy and on reddit,b ecause i keep seeing it, dont want to see it or engage it. and reddit was actively pushing the sub to the front. i suspect on lemmy , without russian bots riling them out, they will have less of an impact than on reddit, its well known the trolls from the farms control the subs there.
Why would you have your default as sort by controversial?
It’s the juiciest content. But not recommended for people susceptible to rageboners or rage bait as fun as it can be. It’s like a hard drug, gotta keep usage in check.
The mods set it as the default for the subreddit in an attempt to combat brigading.
it seems all the large subs are doing that now, conservative is just banning any dissenting opinion, full stop. but ive seen an increase in filtering from other subs.
Ultimate freedom
