This is from page 26 of A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin.

Anyone can be sexually abused, not just underage people.

Why reply if you have nothing to add?

It's sad that you're getting down voted for this, because you're absolutely right. These lemmy communities are already turning out to be a left-leaning echo chamber, this thread is a perfect example. Any opinion that differs from the left is blocked or downvoted or argued against endlessly.

OP asks a completely reasonable question in good faith, and hundreds of people come to attack him for thinking differently than they do.

People straight up mock him for no reason. The left loves to paint the right as being hateful, but I'm only seeing the left being hateful on here.

With all due respect, you're very condescending and snobby. You act like you know his beliefs better than he does, that superiority complex looks ugly on you.

You think insulting people for having certain views is going to be helpful in this dialogue? You think mocking someone who's having a conversation with you in good faith is productive?

Grow up, quit being so smug and childish.

Check the "All" page on the big Lemmy instances, it's undoubtedly very left-leaning. This whole thread is a testament to that.

Yeah, it's a shame that people can't be more civil and respectful to each other.

Then I guess you should avoid most Lemmy instances too. They're already very political, and it feels more like a left-wing echo chamber every day.

The exact same thing can be said for liberal communities. It becomes a hivemind where dissenting opinions are not allowed.

Take the Hunter Biden laptop story for instance. So many websites and communities outright banned it from being discussed or posted because they didn't like the optics of it. Facebook banned it, the top subs on reddit banned it.

Only very recently has CNN decided to treat it as news, after lying about it constantly on air for months saying it was fake. That's censorship of information. The left regularly spread misinformation like "the laptop story is a Russian hoax".

Both sides do this.
