It may not be as bad here, but there are a shit ton of people who defend inherently destructive systems like capitalism, or who excuse systemic racism or transphobia. I’ve encountered them a lot, even here in the fediverse.
Yeah, I get it. Personally, I live in the US, but we’re not so great either.
Personally, I think all states and hierarchies are destructive, but I’m willing to talk to people online who at least agree that oppressive systems like capitalism and authoritarianism are bad, as a baseline. In real life, I’m more open to conversing with people and debating ideologies, but being online is my escape from this fascist hellscape where I live.
Wishing the best to you. I keep trying to make things better, and maybe at some point after I’m gone, they will. I like what I’m seeing and hearing from a lot of younger people, so at least there’s that.
