Obviously, the internet has always been a toxic place, (the phrase “flame war” has been around for decades,) but it seems to have gotten so much worse over the last few years. I used to think decentralization of the internet would fix the worst of it, but Lemmy seems to have gotten worse alongside the rest of internet culture, proving me wrong. How do we fix/improve this culture of toxicity?
No, it’s that you’re a thug who thinks they are a hero.
And like all thugs, you hide behind theoretical bullshit to justify your horrible actions and beliefs as for the ‘greater good’.
And if you found yourself on the receiving end of the violence you propose, I don’t think you’d be so eager about it.
That’s called self defense. And if you weren’t some hand-wringing liberal lickspittle, maybe you would have the backbone to stand up against fascists as well.
But you don’t, so you’ll die a nobody, just another in the long line of bootlicking centrists who followed orders and marched themselves into the noose the fascists eventually put around your neck. And as you’re about to die, your last thought will be a plaintive cry for a leftist is to come and save you.

We are at the receiving end of the violence right now
