I always felt that lemm.ee was more conservative (and capilistic). They seem less progressive, more modernist. The issue is it’s hard to tell since it federates with other instances, so I mostly have to go by usernames made off that instance.
I see what you mean now. I meant I see many of the lemm.ee accounts as conservative compared to other instances (more Democrat than progressive). Of course I haven’t done a scientific aanalysis, it’s just an observation I made as I post and look at usernames. Obviously, it’s not going to be everyone as Lemmy leans toward the progressive left.
I mean, I dont hate Landlords, so I guess I count as MORE conservative than the average lemmite… Lemming? Still not conservative enough to not take that as slightly insulting though xD
I joined lemm.ee during the migration and picked it because they didn’t defederate too much with other instances. When they refused to federate with Threads, my choice to use lemm.ee was reaffirmed.
That’s as political as my choice ever got. I personally lean fairly left.
Searching for radical democrat brings up Republican propaganda. Would you be able to explain what you mean by being philosophically “radical Democrat?”
To me it boils down to the great quote, of John Dewey, “The solution to the ills of democracy is more democracy.”
I want the institution of mass multi-seat electoral offices and the mass expansion of elected offices and the election of those offices via Multi-Seat STAR voting (rate your enthusiasm for all the candidates, the two highest average candidates go to a runoff that seats whoever is rated higher on more ballots, repeat with the two highest rated remaining candidates until all seats are filled)

I joined this instance because .world made joining harder during the migration, I mean I’m not HARD left, but I doubt I count as conservative

As a Radical Democrat (the philosophy not the party, although I am registered and vote dem) I am offended
