@danie10 @danie10 Fediverse is a predominantly left-wing network that takes pride in silencing their oposition and Mastodon is the worst of all. Caucasians only make 10% of world's population and white people are somehow always the problem. It's very common to see left-wingers trashing Christianity and the conservatives on the Fediverse but none of them dares to talk the same way about Islam. I know we talked about this already but I can't stand hypocrisy.
@flav it may be that is how the initial instances started up, but there is no policy about who can start an an instance and anyone can can have their own rules. The issue is how they affect other instances who have different rules. The same goes for far left and right - should be no difference. No-one should be trashing anything.
@danie10 For me free speech is more important than the Fediverse and not everyone have the skills setup his own server. I agree nobody should be trashing anything but it happens on the Fediverse all the time, and It's not the right wingers. Just last night I was on Diaspora and I saw a person posting crap about Christianity. I'm not even religious but it's part of my heritage and I don't see them talking the same about Islam. That would be Islamophobic of course.
@flav I tend to deal with issues and people on what they say or do, not a label attached to a belief. All politics and religion is subjective and there is no convincing anyone otherwise. It's wasted effort. But freedom of speech is balanced with a freedom to hear, and should never be inciting harm or hatred - politics and religion follows the mantra tho of "I'm right for no reason and you are wrong". So let me say I hate politics and religion. I judge anyone by deeds.
@danie10 My fiancee is from Philippines so I'm not a racist, but I'm tired of being called white supremacist or white privileged or right-wing extremist for my political views. Yes I vote conservative and I support the Republican Party but that's how democracy works. But now many left wingers are saying openly they want communism, so they prefer one party system.
@flav again I don't like labels like Communism as it has emotions and issues attched. It's about how it affects people's lives. Communism differs from communism in many places, and seriously Democracy looks like it has big issues right now. Both Communism in the past, and Democracy today are being abused. The fault of all politicians. It's humans I have an issue with really I suppose.
@danie10 I was born during Communism in Romania and we had the bloodiest revolution in 1989. For most Eastern Europeans is terrifying to see Westerners praising Communism. I agree Capitalism's has failed but I don't think communism/socialism is the solution.
@flav I don't think any are the solution as-is. We need to look at human failing in politics especially. Many individuals the world around do not practice their politics true to whatever label they have adopted. And I suppose we have to start at the basics of human rights. But countries imply borders, control, and power. It's just all a bad mix. It also sets us all against each other, which is precisley what politicians want - nothing better than a "us vs them".
