Just curious what the hive mind over there is thinking. I used to lurk Reddit before I switched to Lemmy during the mass exodus.
I’ve really just been getting most of my news from Lemmy these days and not paying much attention to MSM. Obviously the things I’m reading here sounds like Isreal is commuting war crimes with their amped up response from the original attack.
Curious if there’s any kind of divide on Reddit regarding the conflict.
Well I think Lemmy World, at least before lemeegrad was defederated from world, had a lot more socialist/marxist types being very vocal in the discourse trying to spin it in that angle. Also weird news sources seemed to be popping up a bit more in lemmy from al jazeera, turkey state media, and other socialist web sites. But I’m not sure if that is just because of how lemmy has less content so lower traffic stuff gets put up on my feed faster than reddit where I still have a lot of subs and a lot more content flowing.
When it comes to comments, both are similar in that it’s hard to have a moderate take that:
Wait, you saw actual socialists on Lemmygrad? My experience with them leaving comments outside their instance was fascists masquerading as communists, and it left a sour taste in my mouth.
