Is it just me, or have the comments on Lemmy become extra aggressive over the past 3 months? (lemmy.world)

I feel like things on Lemmy were pretty chill several months ago, and that’s started to change.

People used to talk each other like they would talk to a neighbor. Now I get the sense that people have become quick to be negative, attack, and not be constructive.

Am I crazy in feeling like the vibe has changed?

Considering a lot of them are anti-Semitic, defend USSR invading Poland, some even homophobic. They're literally just larping fascist pigs

Still conflating anti-Zionism with antisemitism, I see. First of all, anti-Zionist Jews and non-Zoinist Jews exist.

There is no fediverse instance more queer-friendly and than Hexbear; what are you even talking about?

I can think of a few.

Not a pro Zionist. But thanks for putting words in my mouth

You obviously don't know what fascist means. You should probably stop using the word until you go read the definition.

Cool 👍

Redfashes do exist, but not on Hexbear or Lemmygrad.
