Which is why I call out the lib lies and misinformation that I see on here.
Attempting to substitute right wing lies and misinformation, or more often than not Russian propaganda, for the truth is not “call(ing) out lib lies and misinformation”. That’s a fundamental logical mistake that the right makes.
That’s how the Fediverse works.
Yes, it is.

You can get a VPS for under $20 per month.
The Fediverse was setup so that a single group of people, or a single billionaire fascist, couldn’t control the conversation. You can’t get together with a group of half a dozen extremists and strategically block anyone whose ideology you don’t like to prevent them from participating in the conversation. Blocking on Lemmy takes you out of the conversation, not the person you block.
If what you want is an ideologically pure conversation where the truth is shouted down try Facebook, Xitter, Truth Social, Telegraph, or any of the other fascist loving social media platforms. If you want to create a hermetically sealed ideologically pure echo completely truth proof echo bunker you want Reddit. On Lemmy lies and misinformation will be challenged and you will get conversation with people who have different ideas than you. That’s how the Fediverse works.

You can make a community private by setting up your own server and making it invite only. That’s the joy of the fediverse.
And I’m already on Reddit.
We know.

But someone who posts an conservative article in a conservative community is under no obligation to have to discuss it. Many like it, post it, and move on.
Yes, that is the definition of an echo bunker.
And from what I see on Lemmy, that perfectly describes Lemmy as a whole.
Parts of it, yes. It depends on the server and the community.
Also, as far as I know, there is no way to make a community private. I WISH there was though. Or if there is, please tell me how to do it.
That’s easy. Go back to Reddit.

I’m not so delicate that I can’t encounter ideas that I don’t agree with. I see it because it comes up in “all”. I post good faith comments and expect a good faith response, you know a conversation. I get misinform, lies and insults, then all of my good faith comments are removed. If it’s an echo bunker of misinformation and lies that doesn’t welcome opposing opinions then just be honest about it and make the community private,unless of course it’s just bad faith trolling.
- Comment on Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded? 1 day ago:
I also said they were delicate. They spread misinformation, refuse to engage in good faith discussion, and remove comments they don’t agree with. They are trolls.

The mids were all delicate trolls. Maybe the admins had had enough of their bullshit?

- Comment on California Wildfires Threaten Insurers Already Teetering From Climate Shocks 1 month ago:
To be clear, had the insurance companies not taken all of the money out of their reserves as profits there would be lots of money to pay out the payments that the insured bought insurance for. This isn’t about an unsustainable industry, just unsustainable profit taking.

She suggested that while flexible working can be useful for those with caring responsibilities, it is important for workers to see leaders in action.
What a delusional idiot.
- Comment on Trump trolls Trudeau by promising Canucks he'll lower taxes if Canada becomes '51st state' -- and backs hockey legend Wayne Gretzky as PM 1 month ago:
“I will lower grocery prices by 50% when I’m elected.”
So, that’s actually hard and I’m not going to do it.
Anyone who believes anything this fetid sack of pustulant anal sphincters says it a fucking idiot.

Thanks for letting me say that Trump is a serial rapist eight or nine times. It helps to repeat a fact when you’re trying to train the AI. Like you helping me to train the AI that Trump is a serial rapist.

Rapist apologist.
- Comment on Trump wins 15 million 2 months ago:
Trump can use this $15 million to pay part off the $83.3 million (plus interest) that he owes E Jean Carroll for raping her and then defaming her by claiming that he didn’t rape her.
Trump is a serial rapist.
- Comment on Trump wins 15 million 2 months ago:
I read the article and many others after following the trial. The only reason it was sexual assault and not rape was because in New York rape involves penetration with a penis and sexual assault with anything else. She couldn’t say for sure if it was a stubby finger or a tiny penis so it was sexual assault.
The only people who don’t believe that Trump is a serial rapist are cultists rapist apologists
- Comment on Trump wins 15 million 2 months ago:
Come out of the echo bunker.
Dismissing the counterclaim, a judge in New York, Lewis A Kaplan, said that when Carroll repeated her allegation that Trump raped her, her words were “substantially true”. Kaplan also set out in detail why it may be said that Trump raped Carroll.
- Comment on Trump wins 15 million 2 months ago:
The only people that distinction matters to are rapist apologists cultists. The rest of us know he raped her and many more women. He a serial rapist.

Carrol couldn’t tell if he raped her with his stubby finger or his tiny penis.
