As an outsider, I find American obsession over Jan 6th to be absolutely bizarre. At worst it was a riot. How exactly is a riot at the capital going to cause a coup? I’m guessing you too probably have overblown Jan 6th concerns but peoples response to your comment only confirms my thoughts. People are so entrenched in maintaining the “most dangerous thing since the civil war” that they are willing to consume their own over the smallest disagreements.

Also, these people claiming Trump would be worse in Gaza, but it’s not clear the US would be worse in Gaza if Trump won, the US has put up zero road blocks currently and with Trump in the Whitehouse the democrats would actually push back against the genocide because Trump is now president. Plus more negative press from the corporate media, again, because Trump is in charge. Not saying it’s the most likely case, but it can be argued.

The main post would be shared but then in the comment section you can swipe left or right to scroll through the different instances (comment section). Most comment sections don’t have such unique requirements anyways, usually on Reddit I just assume “don’t be an asshole” and on the few occasions where that is not sufficient, I get deleted and the mod notifies me of the error, then I learn. Generally people won’t familiarize themselves with the community rules before posting.

Was the most upvoted comment on “how to get started with Lemmy”. Also, some of these other places have super strange names, I get that it doesn’t matter but when you know nothing it gives bad vibes.
