That isn’t nuance, it’s unhinged rambling about stuff I never said, at all. I especially didn’t “cast stones on the queers”. I’m gay, I wouldn’t do that. I cherish gay rights and gay marriage deeply.

I also don’t think sexual or gender identity, or religion, is a baseline for someone doing something that horrible.

Uhh what? You completely misunderstood me. I was referring to people that show up to protest pride with hateful signs and megaphones. I’m being genuine here.

That’s fair. At the time I was taking some of it personal but I shouldn’t. People are entitled to their opinions and I respect that.

Nah, didn’t say that. Wildly unpopular though, yes.

More bigotry huh? Yawn.

You must have never met any gay people here before then because I can’t think of anyone I know who supports DeSantis.

I don’t know why anyone would assume that living here automatically means you do. That’s not true for any state. My area is also incredibly diverse, I’m sorry but your experience sounds fictitious to me.

Calm down Audrey Hale.

May as well give up on these people, they aren’t capable of nuance.

The funniest part to me though is they’re saying all these wild things about how Christians feel about gay people yet I rarely experience it myself. But daaaaamn the moment I mention I’m also a Christian they full-on seethe.

It’s bigotry and they’ve fully embraced it.

Nice quote I’ve heard literally nobody say before this post. What’s your point? I’m speaking from experience when I say these views are wildly unpopular among Christians.

Southern Florida, Christian church. The only time I’ve encountered anyone like what your describing has been at pride parades, ironically.

I believe you’re greatly over-exaggerating their existence because you hate all religious people and are trying to convince yourself you’re not a bigot when you obviously are.

The majority of people on Earth are religious. You’ll find “replacing” their beliefs to be impossible. Perhaps you should consider being more tolerant instead of living in a hateful fantasy world.

No, this is all you projecting your persecution fetish onto people you most likely never interact with. Pretty bigoted take honestly.

The very opposite is in fact true. I’m gay and go to a Christian church, they speak of love and acceptance for all. If there are actually any who fit your explanation they’re an incredibly small minority that actual Christians disagree with.

There is none. However, implying that race effects your credit score is in fact a pretty racist thing to say. Classic Marxist mentality.

From a man that married his first cousin lmao that tracks.

Leaving an instance curated by and for tankies is a good call.

Yes, it’s always this ridiculous. It’s the polar opposite of Q level conspiracies except somehow democrats. The weird thing is you’d think they’d be cool with RFK Jr. but apparently he’s an antisemitic Nazi because vaccines or something.

Could have fooled me. Maybe it’s not as extreme as the others but the creators are still rumored to be tankies. It’s entirely possible that I’m wrong though.

I did see a comment in the politics community get tons of downvotes for saying something unpopular. A mod replied saying people were also reporting it but they’re allowing it to stay because it didn’t break any rules. I checked back later out of curiosity and sure enough it was removed.

Just to be fair to lemmy.world however it’s possible some mods are acting in good faith like the one that replied while others don’t have the same standards.

My head cannon is it’s because lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are tankie echo chambers trying to be the “default” instances. Lots of people aren’t down with simping for authoritarian regimes.

Other than that your reason may be most likely. Just people being unhinged. I doubt it’s Reddit revenge though, Reddit hate seems to be pretty universal; even among people still using it.
