      Idk if this is really true.

      People get their accounts banned on this site for wrongthink constantly

      This shit isn’t meaningfully different than reddit

        i have only heard the term “wrongthink” used by those who participate in pretty not cool places.

        edit: did I get downvoted for wrongthink? lol

            there’s too much stuff to keep track of, man. all I know is that when I see that term, it sets off a red flag in my brain.

          Banned from lemmy.world for telling a woman she was “Dumber than shit” for voting for trump and then defending him in a thread here.

            Well, that’s not called wrongthink, that’s just being an asshole.

                Tbf “dumb” is ableist. You’re shaming anyone who isnt “high iq”, and IQ, and measuring intelligence in general, is doing the nazi’s work for them.

                Tbf you can insult someone’s actions without resorting to personal attacks. “Voting for drumf is tantamount to shooting yourself through both feet and still managing to pierce your ear with the bullet…but hey at least it’ll match your furher’s ear” (See how i use the opportunity to be creative and provactive with a hint of dark humor?)

                Aaaaand tbf “wrongthink” absolutely gives off qanon/kekistan" vibes so dont be surprised when talking like this turns you into a person people dont want to be around.
