Lemmy folks don’t even read the article or watch the video in the title, they just react. Several of my anti-casteist news articles posted on /c/india@lemmy.ml, were down-voted to oblivion.
Right, but this kinda has nothing to do with Linux. So I can understand why he didn’t want it here. I’m for openly discussing topics, but it should be on topic. Even if he talks a little bit about Linux, I feel like it’s just an excuse to post it everywhere about Linux, which is pretty much everywhere.
Because political discussions on the internet are usually performed without proper seriousness of the action and have hidden negative (usually minor though) and destructive consequences to the members’ and the viewers’ psychological health. They also make the world overall more aggressive and separated which has never caused anything good. Therefore, spreading political discussions like this is a contribution to aggression and general evilness which is a questionable move. It’s not like I’m judging you though. I know most of the people that do it just don’t know about it and want to have fun or get popular. Doing this in questionable ways is not great but that’s another topic. I don’t wanna write a speech here lol (and it’s not like I can either)
I mean, we’re in the Linux community not a gun rights community. Downvotes should be used when the post doesn’t match the community, which applies here.
