Lemmy loves to pretend itâs superior to reddit, but now weâve just concentrated the elitists and political extremists into a smaller pool of users.

No, neither reddit or lemmy are anti-American. Not even unamerican. Itâs much, much worse: Theyâre non-American. Reddit by I think a small majority, lemmy much more so.
If, then, a random jingoist Seppo comes along and considers themselves and their dysfunctional country godâs gift to humanity, well, itâs easy to predict how much people will cheer that on.
Add to that another, equally exceptionalist, breed of Seppos, just that those donât think the US is the greatest thing to ever grace humankind, but the worst. Thatâs not anti-American either, theyâre still exceptionalist and theyâre still Seppos. Hexbear and lemmygrad are full of them.
Also yâall donât get what taking the piss entails.
