Oddbean new post about login | logout Reading comments/posts from an average Mastodon degen who just calls anything a Nazi that doesn't perfectly match their own circle jerk ideology is so frustrating.
Alot of sick minds live on the internet
Mastodon is where leftists who are too extreme for Reddit hang out. You’d have more fun being waterboarded
Never checked out Mastodon, thankfully. I didn’t even hear about it until I got on Nostr. People waste a profound amount of time online being angry.
From my understanding, to seek out what is like one’s self, is one of the fundamental human impulses, like the fear of being buried alive. It’s where the collective thinking we tend to define as culture is manifested. To disagree peacefully, to put an objective grey filter on that which we are passionate about, takes a level of discernment that is often discouraged it seems. Possibly because ppl at odds tend to consume & destroy blindly.
