I have been on Lemmy for a while now but never posted anything as a new post so please forgive me if I am doing anything wrong.
I see that I am part of lemmy.world and that this instance is frowned upon.
Is there a better instance I can join? I am not very clued up on Lemmy and as far as I can see it is made up of lots of different sites which are linked together.
I just want to be part of a healthy group and I am just getting into astronomy so are there any good groups for that please?
If it helps I am based in the UK.
Have a great weekend all.
Edit: sorry for the late response another 6 day week at work. Thank you all so much for the very useful advice!
Stop moving the political compass leftward
“Why don’t you communists try to be more conservative?”
That’s a wild suggestion that I’ve never seen before lol
Um, no? Stop centering your political compass around a new center, where to you current leftists look rightwing according to it
Your reply shows to me that you are unfamiliar with socialism/communism and don’t entirely know what you’re referring to.
I’m not pushing anything towards the left, the left has always been to the…well, left.
The only thing that has swifted is the fact that a lot more people now are unfamiliar with what constitute as “left” and their perception of what is “extreme left” has changed because of their unfamiliarity with it. And because of right wing propaganda scare tactics like “everything I don’t like is communist!”
The compass has never moved. Only your perception of it has
You are literally calling lemmy.world rightwing and lecturing me that I’m too conscious about communism, and no it’s not that I am uneducated about communism because I literally voted for the TIP in turkey
