  In my personal opinion, yes.

    In all seriousness, can you elaborate? I’m genuinely curious.

      Nah. I’ve seen the witchhunts that Lemmy relishes. No offense to you though!

      But people will legit screenshot pieces of my conversations and follow me to other posts and other communities. Then they post those screenshots, out of context, and yell variations of “Don’t listen to him. He’s a troll! See?! See?!” Even in non-political posts and discussions.

      I’ve seen it happen over and over.

      So I just don’t get that detailed anymore. Not that I will ever be run off of Lemmy, but I just won’t get into deep detailed conversations. Which I’m totally fine with. :)

        I’m sorry that you feel that way. If you’re uncomfortable giving your opinion I can give mine and see if we have any middle ground. From my perspective, DOGE is an attempt to repeat what was done to Twitter on a much larger scale. The U.S economy is crashing hard as a result. I’m legitimately concerned the damage DOGE has done to the U.S government will be permanent. The cutting of research and government programs at this level will have lasting impacts that will reduce the quality of life of Americans for generations. I can elaborate further if you want. I understand others gut reactions to down vote your comments and your posts when they disagree but this is a conservative community. I’m clearly not conservative but respect that people have other political views. Perhaps I’m an optimist but I think if platforms like Lemmy don’t allow those on the other side of political spectrum to have conversations then it pushes people into their own echo chambers further polarizing the individual. I hope you feel more comfortable to share your personal opinion on what is happening in future. Given how extreme it is, I think its necessary to really understand what is happening.
