I’ve been on lemmy for over a year now, and I just realized I used to read all those HackerNews articles + their comments, I haven’t done that in probably 6 months because the discussion here has gotten much better. What’s changed for you with Lemmy over the last year?

All of the "a vote for Kamala is a vote for genocide" spammers mysteriously disappeared

Edit: my point is that they seem awfully quiet about Trump

I mean, the vote happened and she's not running anymore, sooooooo not really a reason for them to keep talking about that issue?

Also, I remember a couple usernames from some of the most vocal and I just went and looked and it's not like they up and deleted their accounts or stopped using Lemmy. They're still active, so they didn't "disappear."

@queermunist@lemmy.ml was pretty loud about that opinion and they're still here, for example.

I know reddit being flooded with bots for 10 years has made y'all jaded but real people with real opinions that differ from ours shockingly still exist.

Idk if you maybe missed the news but the election ended. Like awhile ago.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 12 points 6 days ago

The election ended, the Leftists are still here. What were you expecting to happen?

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 11 points 6 days ago

Is this a joke? They didn’t leave, the election cycle did.

I'm still here posting about the flaws of the voting system that gives us two shit options to choose from.

Are you working to replace First past the post voting in your state? Now is that so venerated time to push for these changes at the state and local level.

Don't you care that your country men/women/and more are under represented by their options at the polls?

Upset over 3rd party voters? Best get back to passing electoral reform in your state then.

You wouldn't tell people how to vote and then do nothing to fix the voting system that is the source of the problem would you?

You shitlibs are still whining that leftists didn't want to vote for your genocidal ghoul?

The liberals are desperate to blame anything and everything they can to justify not changing a single damn thing about the democratic party.

Because they know the blue conservatives won't change. Their donors will not allow it.

"No, it's the voters who are wrong"

Same reason people aren't still discussing who will win Euro '24
