  • Ah ok.

    Re Musk, it’s about intent. He’s been using “different opinions” under the pretence of “free speech” (and “democracy”) as an excuse to boost fascist content on Twitter. It’s cryptofash doublespeak.

    But even fascism aside “you should be more open to debating differing opinions” still comes across as tone-deaf centrism.

    In any case the implications aren’t pretty.

    As for defining fascism, with crap like “horseshoe theory” muddying the waters, as well as the general impression people have that fascism is some isolated evil from the past, there’s ample room for doubt in online interactions.


  • Lol the fact that you think leftism is small and unified enough to be at risk of becoming an “echo chamber” shows just how little you know about leftism.

    Liberalis generally are capitalists who think that capitalism is a “free”, “democratic” and “equal” system. Some liberals think its flaws can be ironed out with regulation and reform.

    Leftists aren’t just socially progressive. They’re also anti-capitalist. And no amount of “debating” is gonna change that.

    Btw

    Differing opinions are important and should be encouraged - hell this is one of the core principals of democracy.

    sounds a lot like Musk lol. But least you unambiguously stated you hate fascism, even though I’m not really sure what you would even define as ‘fascism’…
