i personally think it isn’t about ‘need’. there could be 100 mods already and your goodhearted nature and visible care of this community would still cause me to think you would fit perfectly as a mod. Anyway, just my personal feeling. meow :)
Can we have new drama please?
i think you should be a mod of this community

You didn’t declare absolute fealty to the ideology, news sources, and goals of the left. Nor did you even spew caustic hate at any other ideologies.
Therefore you are bad.
Downvoted.
ironically, this leftish area has caused me to go from thinking the right was terrible and the left was good to realizing there are really annoyingly aggressive people on both sides. I generally can’t stand oppression, so I am naturally on the side opposed to antiLGBTQ oppressors, racists, and sexists; which causes me to fall on the left side. But, now being in a leftish area a while, I dislike how the sheer vilifying and mob mentality disrupts calm logical thought. I will get downvotes for saying this (and that’s exactly my point), but, for example, if I were to think a policy of trump or elon was smart and good, you know there is no way i could mention it without 80 downvotes and constant personal attacks. If Trump liked gummi bears, saying ‘thats cool gummi bears are good’ would instantly result in 40 people yelling how terrible Gummi Bears are… because Trump likes them.
So lemmy caused me to go from leftist to instead having a distinction between respectful, nonaggressive people and those that aren’t. I would value a respectful, wellmeaning republican that I can have a meaningful conversation with (even if I disagree), over an aggressive lefty attacking any hint of an ideology other than their own.
I think the “jealous europeans” part shouldn’t have been said. advice: Don’t say you or your country are better than others.
I literally joined sh.itjust.works because aggressive people are my weakness. If I post something with good energy and someone attacks, I’m not a brawl enjoyer; I go straight to kill mode. I considered Canadians a peaceful species, so I made an account here.
In my own realms it’s the aggressive people who attack others that I remove. I do not want my new users interacting with them, old users having to interact with them, them to appear to be the face and persontype of my place… I also rule with an iron fist tho. I value diverse ideologies and viewpoints but do not tolerate aggression.
Maybe you are not assertive enough in preventing bullying among your flock and one just reached up and bit you. A clear warning first and to make the bullied person feel they are not in the wrong, then send the bully to another instance if they continue.
Reminds me of a post where someone was being viciously attacked for innocently sharing their view.
I actually felt I had to step in and reassure the poster they were ok after and it seemed to help.
I don’t know how people like that are allowed to roam the varying areas. Just make them reroll far away.
Seems like one of that type of person bit you and you lashed back and in so doing “overly defended” america in saying others are jealous; and then you got the downvotes.
I don’t see the hate of Americans issue as much as it being acceptable to viciously attack people if not personally sharing their viewpoint; and that shouldn’t actually be acceptable behavior. It should be highly looked down on and removed. Being civil isn’t just words; it’s the energy one conveys toward others.
edit: also people joining or initially starting in just any instance and eventually rerolling to one more fitting them is a natural thing which happened here.
