i dont mean those who are paid to do so

their motivation is obvious but i mean people who are productive out of their own motivation and represent untenable points of view i mean are they really serious about this because whats the point

i mean it cant all be the deep state

because what would be the point of trying that with lemmy right who is paid for it listen with AI i can still understand that it could be done very economically but even here there are real people who do it so i have a few questions

  • why
  • and how did they come up with that
  • and what is the goal
  • and what drives them to do it

i dont get that at all

a certain amount of leftyness seems perfectly appropriate to me if you can believe it i even believe that there are people who can hardly be dealt with in any other way but im talking about leftyness on this platform where in my opinion there are lots of absurd opinions that cannot be countered with arguments now of course there are also views here that run counter to rational thinking but after a year here it seems to me that most users despite perhaps productive views are still somewhat reasonably willing to accept arguments and if not in my opinion its best to simply ignore them

i mean unfortunately were still quite a long way from facebook or even reddit or truth social here so it seems to me that there is at least a willingness to discuss things here which is why i cant really understand why anyone would want to undermine that and im not referring to you at all of course and i very much appreciate your response

im just trying to understand why even here there are apparently people who are bent on pointless progress i just dont get that

    Bro, again

    You're gonna have to be specific. You can't ask people to explain the motives behind "lefty thought" on lemmy when it encompasses everything on the left. We've got Marxists, Leninists, anarchists, Stalinists, anticapitalists, tankies, anti-authoritarian socialists, democratic socialists, syndicalists, liberals, etc, etc, etc

    Not to mention people whose political goals align with leftist thought. Feminists, LGBTQIA people, people of color, immigrants, people who want to help the poor / homeless / mentally ill.

    Are you saying they're all wrong?

    Which of them hold which specific views that you consider "untenable"?

    that sounds like a lot of fancy words to avoid saying democrat

    the whole lefty agenda seems untenable what with having minorities be in charge of law enforcement and companies and things and also putting ai in my gmail and making me to use pronouns

    Aaaaand there we go.

    Not interested in even learning the difference in the things that people you claim to know are wrong believe, but I bet you'd be able to tell me all about how you're not a KKK or National Front member, and how their policies and ideas are so much different from what you believe.

    Staggering lack of self-awareness. Have fun in your fascist circlejerk instance. I won't be back.

    How is anyone supposed to read this? Lots of jumbled words, not a single punctuation mark to separate your points (which you don't seem to have, as others have pointed out).
