    The all caps things, people on Lemmy are definitely saying.

    If it’s happening at all, I haven’t seen it. But people who want the left to shut the fuck up sure love imagining they see it everywhere. Just like everyone who doesn’t toe the line must be some combination of Russian/tankie/bot/shill/Chinese/child/Republican/etc. There’s no truth to it and there doesn’t have to be. The goal is just to heap abuse and false accusations leftward until there’s silence.

    I’m not sure why you would assert that no one is saying that, but sure.

    Because no one fucking is. Least of all in sufficient numbers to be representative of the platform as a whole as you indicated. Meanwhile, there’s genocide apologia elsewhere on this very thread.

      Last comment I will make on the topic:

      This is the top thread on my display

      This was the first comment I landed on scrolling randomly around

      If you don’t accept the equivalence between those things and my all caps statements, then sure.

      Best of luck with you on everything

        If you’re seeing your all-caps strawman in that comment, my first reply applies to you.
