There is the old cliche that during holiday dinner there is always that one right-wing uncle who never shuts the fuck about politics (these days being during Thanksgiving and how great Trump is). Everyone finds what this uncle is saying is cringe as hell.
Well, that’s kind of what Lemmy is becoming, but for the far-left.
If it is in a political community, it is one thing. And to a large degree, I might even agree with most left-of-center views.
But there is an endless stream of edgy pro-commie and similar posts and a dearth of other light-hearted posts to counter balance it. Almost all communities outside the ones listed above get no traffic, so there’s no point in trying to start a conversation about cars or DIY projects or electronics. Hell, even the NSFW communities on Lemmy are rather lame.
