npub1jflcdvljl0n8hlz27798d0044rxwkqz69gapvcctt4p4gdt4kasqjgfmdd (npub1jfl…fmdd) Blocked here on non-nazi Mastodon? If so, two theories:
It has not been an expiernce limited to mastodon in any way. I would think you run into very few righties.
Both here and in general I probably run into at least as many if more righties. The reason for it here is that the left is so quick to block people that myself not being an extreme lefty but a moderate has me blocked by the majority of the left and triggered pretty much the whole of the right. So I hear from the right quite often. For various historical reasons, culturally this place is dominated, politically, by the identarian left.
Overall I’d tend to agree there is somewhat more left than right on the fedi. But that means little when it comes to my view of it which is clearly tinted by my personality. One of my least favorite things about the id-left is they sorta don’t tolerate dissent. In US politics it’s probably the most significant anti-free-speech group. (speech is violence, etc, etc)
Agreed, which is why we have such extreme polarization, if you are even remotely moderate you will be attacked. Second: we righties here on Mastodon can’t really afford to block anyone, we’re getting blocked so much that if we did we’d have nothing in our feeds.
I mean there are plenty of right-wing instances, explicitly so.. The problem i find is that the right is complete garbage on here just like the left is.. so you probably dont want to hang out with that crowd as it constitutes some of the most obnoxious instances, most of the free speech instances where hatespeech is the norm.
