If someone thinks that Lemmy is “full of useless idiot communists”, they’re probably ignorant, argumentative, and more trouble than they’re worth. If/when they grow up, they’re welcome to join us!

It's worse: ignorance is humanity's curse and argumentativeness has its good signs, but assumptiveness is trash on both moral and epistemic levels. And the user in question is being assumptive, as he's vomiting certainty over a group of people who he really don't know.
Another character flaw (yup) that the user is showing is lack of basic reading comprehension. As OP hinted it's that kind of user who should be left behind.
some of my best friends are useless idiot communists!
just wait, reddit is 100% going to sunset old.reddit within the next year
I had déjà vu during spez's AMA stating that old Reddit will always exist. He stated the same thing a few years back with third party apps. I don't trust anything that slimy fuck says.
Spez said they wouldn't, so they probably will.
Well I'm not communist yet I am here. Not everyone on Lemmy is one.
Lemmy/Kbin user here. Hardcore Capitalist and absolutely hate Communism.
Yeah, here it totally works. Couldn't say that on Mastodon. Almost everything is left oriented there.
It's true. It's why I feel that Mastodon will never replace Twitter. It's too much of a left wing circlejerk / bubble, and they're actively hostile to even moderate viewpoints. much less actually conservative ones.
I'm probably in the minority in this, but I believe that even people I don't agree with should have a platform and be tolerated as long as they're reasonable and willing to compromise and show respect, as long as they're not racist nazi nutjobs.
The world isn't exclusively made up of one set of ideas, and you shouldn't shut out 75% of all viewpoints just because they don't agree with yours, imo.
