I haven’t checked Lemmy for a long time but I wanna get off Reddit again, yet I still need to know how many users are on here. Which lemmy instances are suitable to me, the most popular, and which ones to avoid? For context, im queer, anarchist with DemSoc leaning, and environmentalist. Is there a comprehensive list of all the instances and their main functions? Is the instance I’m on still workable? Any feedback would help, thx. <3

    @SkaveRat you show how much you don’t know shit.

    Whites are not genocided in South Africa, you naive boy.

    This is a alt right claim, much like “the great replacement” and other MAGA, extreme right shit.

      Sure. But denying a happening genocide can be as right wing as claiming a fake one

      Just because nazis use the same words, doesn’t invalidate all cases where these words are used

              I’d advise the same to you. Because I think that we are agreeing

              Stop being contrarian for the sake of being contrarian

                You’re taking the side of nazis on specific lies they’re telling under the smug dipshit armchair logic “just because they’re saying something doesn’t mean it’s untrue”

                So since you’re existing purely in an abstract realm of logic completely disconnected from reality just to argue (again, on behalf of nazis), I think it’s more appropriate for you to hear that last line instead of say it.

        No one said it does. Either you’re still missing the point or you’re intentionally straw manning.

        Edit to add: As to whether the genocide claim holds water, I covered that separately in the “Previously” of the same comment above, as well as elsewhere before[1][2][3][4]. The burden of proof isn’t on genocide deniers but genocide accusers, which is why I say that it isn’t a “cheat code,” as the absurd allegations of South African “white genocide” show.
