  • I’m just going to assume Left Wing Orthodoxy means not being a bigot, i.e. paying a minimum respect to minority groups and showing a little bit of empathy. Voat used to be a thing where shitheads flocked, that’s been gone for a while. The Fediverse edgelord troll habitats were Wolfballs and ExplodingHeads, those died years ago after being widely defederated there was no one left for them to troll.

    !conservative@lemm.ee used to be a lite version of Conservative echochamber news, but it turned into a satirical version of itself eventually and the instance is shutting down next week.

    So no, there’s currently no place for shitheads and trolls on the connected Fediverse, but we do have a growing selection of niche hobby communities, still small but they’re up and coming.





  • I mean as a Canadian, I knew that was coming since early last year if Trump would win. I couldn’t know where we would land on the spectrum between nothing changed and Armageddon. What I did know was that, without fail, I would hear what stupid thing Trump did just about every day in the news, and it would be overwhelmingly exhausting.

    I have three pieces of advice. First, connect with the people around you offline, reinforce your ground truth. Second is keep your eyes on the ball of what you want to be better in the world so that you can keep going after it. Lastly, don’t let right or left wing online propaganda, or the despair from crises the US, Israel, Russia, China or North Korea stir up paralyze you from taking action on those two things.
