I remember before the election, there were polls that said Trump was rising. Lemmy said “fake polls!” and “No way! This is propaganda!” And um, look what happened…
EDIT: Then Trump gets elected, Lemmy has shocked face, and can’t understand how it was possible. Because there are a lot of people on Lemmy who refuse to listen to outside information if it doesn’t fit their narrative. And they’re outright hostile to anyone who talks against that narrative as well. So I believe the polls.
And you do realize that Lemmy has a very very large majority of people who are anti-conservative, right? So when people talk about Lemmy in the scenario I noted, it’s taken to mean the majority. And in this case, I mean the vast vast vast majority.
And regardless of your server, the vast vast majority of Lemmy swings left. I wasn’t talking about individual servers, I was talking about the vast majority of Lemmy. That’s my point.
You guys always ask for evidence for something that cannot be proven without data nobody has access to.
The main conservative sub was recently taken over and remade into a yet another sub to mock conservatives. In the thread about doin that many people said they didn’t want anyone even slightly conservative to even be allowed on the website. Some people arrested to argue they should be allowed to have a space and those people were heavily down voted.
Lemmy has an extremely far left bias. One might even call it radical.
You aren’t the brightest sandwich in the toolshed are you?
I said Lemmy could be considered radical. Not you asking for evidence.
The evidence you ask for is quite literally impossible to prove with data since that data isn’t available to anyone. The best we can do is observe and when observing the users of Lemmy and the content that is allowed on here vs what is not allowed on here it is very clear that Lemmy skews extremely far left. Some communities are so far left they have completely lost sight of the center whatsoever.

You do realize Lemmy is not a monolithic entity, right?

I don’t know and I don’t care. I’m not on the same server as you are. That’s my point.

What’s your evidence?

What’s so “radical” about asking for evidence?
