White, the CEO of UFC, was among the thousands in attendance at the Washington Hilton hotel when authorities say 31-year-old Cole Tomas Allen, armed with a shotgun, handgun and “multiple knives,” attempted to storm the event
Agreed. Lemmy users claiming that every assassination attempt is fake is just as cringeworthy and bizarre as when some Republicans used to insist school shootings were fake or staged.
I’m watching Lemmy posters slowly morph into the very people they claim to hate. They just vote D instead of R. That’s the only real difference. It’s crazy to see it happening in real time. In this very thread there is a guy saying it was “staged.” lolol (Hi @SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world )
it’s not. it’s called horseshoe theory. the more extreme ends of the political spectrum have far more common than they do with the people in the middle.
often the far left and the far right are basically only talking to each other, and they do not acknowledge the 80% of people who are neither, or they are extremely hostile to them, seeking them as being part of the other side.

See, this is the disingenuous part they are talking about. Lemmy and fediverse as a whole is by nature not aligned with either end of the political spectrum.
It’s how tankie and western propaganda are being dismantled by the community every fucking day.
You disingenuous fucks try to frame it as polarizing ends because your bubble are being burst, influence fading and your programming is to cope.
We have extreme left on ml, hexbear and zionist platforms that are more or less hated and demonified, unlike places where one rules over the other.
And yes we love safe spaces for minorities where they can be themselves away from wannabe nazis and neoliberals who don’t give a fuck as long as they are not affected.
Take your pathetic attempt at discouraging people from fediverse somewhere else.
We’re in a bad place when both sides refuse to believe anything

most of them don’t vote at all. they just day-dream about the glorious future of communism and UBI.
voting is too much real-world effort for them.
And don’t forget they want the UBI so they can smoke weed and play video games all day. LMAO
this kind of attitude seems disingenuous

Great explanation! That sums up what I was trying to point out perfectly. Thank you!
How so?
