    I’m saying we are on the same side.

    I know you’re saying that, and I’m saying it shows how foundational nationalism is to your mindset that you think you can just declare it to be true even though I do not consider you on my side

    Nazis and fascists are unilaterally not tolerated as far as I have seen.

    I’ve seen Lemmy liberals tolerate them plenty so long as they’re aligned with the democrats (who themselves are largely fascist) or against the Wests enemies.

    We’ve got so much more in common than what divides us

    Again, shows just how foundational nationalism is to you that you think you can just assert we have “so much more in common” just because we share a national affinity even though we have different values and ideologies.

    but if this how some people on Lemmy want to spend their time, then I’m not going to stop them.

    How magnanimous of you… I know liberals are used to being able to unilaterally shut down leftists in most spaces, but you don’t actually have the power to do that here.

    Every person in this thread who either responded or downvoted has assumed my points of view just because of my instance

    Or we can just read your posts.

    I don’t think that’s a smart way to try and grow an actually revolutionary new internet platform.

    Good. We don’t want to grow another Reddit
