Well, for one there's the constant love of the MIC (no criticism allowed), then there's the ever present transphobia and homophobia (exhibit A, exhibit B, exhibit C, exhibit D), then the anti-immigrant/xenophobic stuff (example, you can see a lot of "they're erasing our identity blablabla" bullshit there). Most threads have some right wing idiots.

No, they're solidly right wing, perhaps the mods aren't as much, but the people there definitely are.

Yes, that's one of the restrictions. I also think you can't see your users' comments. (perhaps posts too, I am uncertain)

If you're not interested in following something there or it's not a topic you're interested in, it's alright. You could always create another account somewhere else or browse their instance anonymously.

The good thing about Lemmy is that you can always switch to another instance in the future. I started for a few months on .world and then moved to lemmy.blahaj.zone.

Welcome! I hope you have a great time here and I'm glad people are moving :)

Well it's 20ish% for Gen Z, so the acceptance likely plays a part there

Zero purpose in society since women fill their role now

If people being more equal than before rids you of your purpose there's quite a problem there, there's no reason for that.

Don't get me wrong, the suicides are a problem, obviously, but suicide attempts are actually multiple times more frequent among women (around 3x last I checked), so I don't think this is a reasonable hypothesis (losing purpose because women are empowered more) as to why the suicide rates are higher.

No, I tried, they don't comply, and tell you to make a complaint to your DPA and the Irish DPA or go to court if you have a problem with that.

Impose their views on people who disagree with them? Damn that's crazy, people want others to treat people with respect and not be bigoted? How political

Maybe it's just a popular opinion on here, so when people click on the thread and see their opinions being mentioned they don't add more comments saying the same stuff as there's no point.

But then when they see someone else say something that differs from their own opinions, it's not unlikely that people tend to reply more to try and express themselves if they feel their opinions are no longer in the majority.

I completely switched to Mastodon and here, I'd rather not use platforms that are locked down by corporations and will inevitably enshittify without leaving me a simple way to migrate

Yeah, you subscribe to hashtags to start, find people you agree with/find interesting, follow them, and then as they boost stuff you'll find more and more people to follow.

They're not obligated to date men though, if they want to participate in 4B then I don't see what's wrong with that. They are allowed to assert their bodily autonomy, it's a form of protest against how they are treated

a female supremacist movement

Thanks for confirming exactly the type of person you are, it's really helpful for people that want to be certain that they won't lose anything of worth by blocking you.
