    It was crazy the amount of red scare shit circling when I started on Lemmy. It was like they were trying to radicalize people by pitting them against the “crazy leftists.”

    God, please never let McCarthyism make a come back. What a waste of our time and energy.

      The problem is there are crazy “leftists” on lemmy. Your instance defederated from the instances home to the worst of them, so you probably didn’t get to experience it.

      Imagine people the adhere to some of the worst parts of right-wing fascism, but with “leftist” branding.
