      Most of Lemmy: EAT THE RICH!!!

      Me: Idk, liberal democracy with reasonable social safety nets, some wealth anti-accumulation, and a robust education system? We should get there by showing up to city council meetings.

      Most of Lemmy: LINUX!!!

      Me: but I want a computer where I don’t have to troubleshoot the wifi driver every 3 months…

        I think you’re reading the room accurately. Nothing flops here like exposing childish extreme views to reality. If you’re not an extremist for their side, you’re worse than a monster.

          I don’t think anyone here is an extremist I think they’re all so pigeonholed in their respective flavors of progressiveness that they forget other people have slightly different views.

            Anyone who supports communism is an extremist relative to the rest of society. At least this is the case in the whole of USA and Europe.
