    You can post anything and it will get down voted. Lemmy is as toxic as reddit and people use downvote as a tool to suppress what they don’t like, regardless of the merit of the comment.

    Tbh I’d just say some racist shit. I’m not gonna write the racist things I would say I legitimately believed it would save my wife’s life. I am from the deep south. I have all that shit in a neglected shed in the backlot of my brain. Not thoughts and opinions, just hurtful words. And I can’t forget them because I was an elementary school vocab whiz when I first heard most of them.

      In my experience just questioning whether “genocide” is the right word to describe Israel’s current operation in Gaza will get you piled on with downvotes. You’ll basically be called a baby killer no matter how carefully you try to qualify what you’re saying.

    My partner/mom/cat has been kidnapped, and the only way to save them is to “write a comment that is guaranteed to get downvoted on Lemmy.”
    Please guys downvote this comment to save her!

    Windows is better.
    Linux is way too complicated and gaming is impossible.
    And don’t get me started on the whole CLI with Linux.

    If Trump wins the GOP primary, Im voting for him.

    Im voting GOP regardless, but god damn sometimes they make it hard. At least Biden makes it a no brainer, also that AWB they want to pass.

    Abortion is murder.

    Everyone should be able to own any gun they want, until proven guilty a terrible crime in a court of law.

    Immigration is not sustainable, its just importing cheap labor, and crying racism is just deflecting.

    The Pentagon should only have the budget they were able to account for last year, no more failing audits with no consequences.

    Fuck blahag.

        Yes, because fascists want the people to be armed. Do you even read what you write?

          Fascists want what gets them power.

          Maybe you should go back to your safe space that you created where people can’t call you what you are.

          … and yet gun control laws in the US were written by fascists to keep guns out of the hands of people who weren’t “white enough” …

    I’m on Kbin, which doesn’t federate downvotes, so I don’t actually see what Lemmy users normally downvote.

    For that reason to be on the safe side I will write a spam ad for Cia1is or something and add some bigotry.
