No, not “too left wing”, just not far right enough for them. The US left wing is the equivalent to right of center in actual developed countries, to put that in to perspective. In other words, the crazy people weren’t crazy enough for the ultra crazies.
Of course there is.

Lemmy will never truly take off until we can have active communities this granular
ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 months ago
As easy as it is to block & defederate, I doubt most lemmy users would see this stuff even it it existed here.
Tired8281@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
You can never have a meth community here.

Tell that to a meth head, watch em set up their own instance
HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
There really is a theme to meth use over the years, isn’t there.
Gonna start calling it fascidust

I mean, how else are you going to try and march across the damn Soviet Union?
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah and it’s not even a stims thing. I’ve seen progressives down Adderall between shots and do coke. But the one meth user I’ve known was a queer republican who tried to lie her way into relationships with people.

there’s a joke i’m struggling to find that ends with “the intolerant meth”

Is “So much for the intolerant meth” not already perfect?

Way way more then here. Don’t be dumb.

I have a pet theory that amphetamines are inherently fascist. I’d be surprised if the “normal” meth sub is commie, but knowing what chuds consider communist, it’s not surprising that they’d make an even more hard-line sub.
BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
“Amphetamines are inherently fascist”???
What does that even mean?
Fuckfuckmyfuckingass@lemmy.world 2 months ago
When you use them they put you in a fascist mental state.
Broadfern@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I mean, I had (prescribed) adderall for a few months that had me borderline tweaky at my given dosage, but I still remained decidedly not right wing/fascist.
Fuckfuckmyfuckingass@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I think smoking meth is a little harder of a deal. Mostly a joke more than anything.
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Maybe you would’ve been even lefter by now!

Hey, Adderall isn’t like that at least for people with adhd
MTZ@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I never thought about it but I had a friend many years back that went on a several months long crystal meth and heroin bender, fell into deep psychosis, was hospitalized, and got clean after a while. He remained much, much more conservative, right wing, and libertarian than he was before he went on the bender. Before he was basically a militant anarchist.
lectricleopard@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Fetterman became conservative after his stroke, too.
I think it may be possible to damage the brain in a way that makes empathy harder.
FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
I’m on a forum for weed users and I’m surprised by how many right wingers are on it. Maybe I’m naive, but I would have thought most right-wingers are against drugs. I guess I tend to forget right-wingers are hypocrites.

Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
Libertarians are kind of just right wing but with weed smoking. Could be some of them.

Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
It is unfortunate that a great part of the internet enshittified so intensely and rapidly. Spez appears to be a bad person, it is also unfortunate that so many people refuse to migrate to better platforms. Let’s not make our whole identities being mad about it.

lol. let’s hope lemmy never becomes truly mainstream then.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 months ago
MAGA Tweakers? A lot of things are starting to make total sense. The Nazis were really into it, too.
It’s even more perfect that the Nazis called it Pervitin, making it the perfect drug of choice for PedoCons.

Cheer up tweakers, only one more sleep till Christmas.

Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 months ago
I’ve never known a meth user who was also a leftist.
People on the left tend to use fancier drugs.

bearboiblake@pawb.social 2 months ago
Actually, it’s stupider, the original meth subreddit made rules against posting images of drug use because reddit admins were breathing down their necks, some of the userbase deemed that censorship to be communist because something something 1984. Except, obviously, it was done because advertisers don’t want to advertise next to drug use. So it’s literally classic Americans calling the negative consequences of capitalism communism
N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Everything conservatives don’t like is “communism”.
a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 2 months ago
That isn’t true. They also don’t like socialism, which they also define as communism.
someguy3@lemmy.world 2 months ago
That makes more sense.
Reflect@quokk.au 2 months ago
And way less. It’s still a meth community. If I head to a mushroom community, I’ll see mushroom identification and cooking. If I stroll down to the clothing store, I’ll find clothes and accessories.
That Reddit is demanding the ability to advertise to meth addicts but only when they make their space more visually palatable, effectively gentrifying a corrosive community, is just peak capitalism.
Hobo@lemmy.world 2 months ago
How do you know this crap? Like my head is also full of useless internet drama, but this specific drama I feel like requires some origination explanation.
Anivia@feddit.org 2 months ago
Well, if you browse any of the drug related subreddits on reddit you can’t really miss it. Heck, I browse almost only /r/steroids and I knew about it
Anivia@feddit.org 2 months ago
Isn’t that what the “quarantined subreddit” feature was added for? Advertisers that don’t want their ad next to a picture of meth use most likely don’t want their ads in a methamphetamine subreddit in general
titanicx@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
The cigar sub used to be over of the best communities, then Reddit banned us from trading or even mentioning it. Many users went over to places like slack. In the mean time an idiot became a mod and trashed the community that was left. So a second cigar community was created for the ability to even post pictures and discussions. Neither sub is anything like what made the community so greata few years ago.
