I feel like things on Lemmy were pretty chill several months ago, and that’s started to change.

People used to talk each other like they would talk to a neighbor. Now I get the sense that people have become quick to be negative, attack, and not be constructive.

Am I crazy in feeling like the vibe has changed?

    My god. I sit here couching my thinly veiled calls for civil disobedience in “in minecraft” and “this is satire,” and here’s someone openly calling for a murder. Maybe next time I want to make a joke about billboard burning being a fun pastime for the whole family, I won’t be as afraid of getting a visit from the fun police

      You can just say whatever you want on the internet. Watch this:

      People who eat meat are murderers and deserve to be killed. It’ll reduce the number of murders overall.

      See? It’s easy.

        I don’t think people thought about it too much. But it shouldn’t be allowed, even if it’s a joke
