He is a far leftist person who wishes to stamp out conservative content and edgy humor on lemmy, after blocking him on my instance cz he forced me (which is very hard on EH) too he keeps coming back to harass the instance, this will be my only post here on this subject and sorry for intruding
Uh so i slightly misunderstood it. Seemed to me that you wanted to say that user was an alt of a sjw inhabitant. Yes i’m also quite annoyed by those campaigners. Hope you will still enjoy your favourite niche communities here, even if they get the mob to defederate from your server. Campaigning for the rights of marginalised people within their respective societal environment – all good. Carrying their fighting spirit onto a global platform, thereby disrupting the experience of all people … well, all i can do is see through some of the psychology in it. I see the basic need for personal security not fulfilled, on either side. Followed by a subliminal anxiety, followed by aggression, put together with a generally aggressive societal norm.
What can we do but try to understand, ban the assholes. And notice i’m doing quite a funny thing here – advocating compassion and reasonability in the example of US-american rightwingers. Guess that’s my job.
You think that’s what Wigglehard is doing? Are you ok?
With “campaigners” i don’t mean @wigglehard. I’m also not advocating for hate speech, if that would be the next thing to come. Instead i see a likely minority group of segregationists infesting this place with their hatred. I’m not interested in joining anyone’s divisiveness, i can do better. If US people want to do their internal warfare online, then please have them do it in their exclusive space. This comes from someone who sees all people as human beings, regardless of how ill-minded they may seem.
It would help a lot if everyone would get a bit into psychology. The basic human requirements in social structures, different needs in security, differences in self-perception, and not least why do we get aggressive. All the energy you use for fighting could go into actual understanding. – What are the opponents actual needs and fears? What are your needs and fears? Where did this originate, in which way were we traumatised, in which way were we mistreated as children? What natural social structures do we miss? Look a bit deeper and find that humans are actually inherently compassionate and good-willed.
Maybe i’m unbearably progressive with this. Take me as a prophet then. For humanity to have a future, the paradigm of separatedness will have to end.
An interesting book perhaps: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humankind:_A_Hopeful_History
I’m sorry for all of the drama and I just want to stop talking about the whole scenario and just get back to normal posting and proper etiquette
