Most lemmy instances are overwhelmingly leftist. If you're a leftist, democrats and republicans are to the right of you. So, it's less "both sides" and more "these two things are on the same side, which is to the right of me."
That makes a lot of sense. It’s deeply misguided and dangerous, but it makes sense.
"it's misguided and dangerous to recognize that the good cop and the bad cop are both cops and both want the same thing from you" bruh wat
In what way is it misguided? Why are you on an anticapitalist platform instead of the Capitalist one, Reddit, if you don't agree with leftist structures?
Surely the thought occurred to you that Reddit went to shit because it's a Capitalist structure, and the things that protect Lemmy from that are the rejections of Capitalism?
