  • I think any large platform will need to moderate, and moderation is gonna be biased and human.

    Saying American’s on Lemmy hate the vales America stands for is quite an assertion. That means your idea of what ‘America sands for’ isn’t sensetive to everyone in America. I’d think on what that means about how you construct your idea of the nation.

    A nations vales are necessarily diverse. Even if founding documents or what not says otherwise. Those documents don’t represent everyone and they are not infallible.

    I don’t think you can hate a countries values because a country doesn’t value as one entity. My values are American values even if we disagree.

    Maybe try and join things in your local community. They likely think more like ya want, and may have just the mix of opinions you disagree with that ya want.

    Maybe you need to make your own community? I’m also pretty sure there are some right leaning Lemmy instances, so I feel like a middle ground may exist for you somewhere.


  • I’m pretty sure neurodivergence and learning disabilities are nearly synonyms. I know it’s a square-rectangle relationship but I think most can parse what ya mean with context. Fair if you can’t. Seeing as ya stated you have some learning disability and idk what it is.

    My girlfriend has pretty intense ADHD and has had lots of intense ups and downs with school. If you want me to ask her anything I’d be happy to.



  • Oofers looks like this didn’t turn out so well. The phrasing is a bit harsh, but it seems like you were trying to learn and get new perspectives. The backlash seems a bit too strong here.

    I’d be curious for folks to express their experiences, or maybe help explain why they are so angry. I see that the title is not a very neutral description of neurodivergence but it’s also a very regular way to describe it at least from where I’m from.
