Two Minnesota state lawmakers who are members of the Democratic-Farm-Labor Party were shot early Saturday by a person posing as a law enforcement officer just north of Minneapolis.

I’ve noticed stuff like that too. I think it’s because republicans use to be so quick to judge based on emotion, and not facts. And they got called out for it. So now they are more inclined to be more informed so they don’t look like dumbasses.
Even in this comm. When the iran-israel bombing thing happened I came here expecting a bunch of links and thoughtful comment. Nope. This sub stayed basically quiet while it was happening. Fox news lit up tho. Same with this shooting. Why is it taking so long to be in this sub?
Is this place censoring stuff like that or what? Why isn’t stuff like that reported here anymore?
And as we can see in this thread, Lemmy is starting to do the exact same things that republicans used to be guilty of–acting on emotion rather than facts. I knew as soon as I said violence is never the answer, people were just gonna jump in and say whatabbout hitler bro!
Again, showing their lack of context and facts. I think (hope!) that Lemmy as a whole is smarter than this, but the ones who seem to comment the most aren’t giving me much hope.
Lemmy, you won’t win with violence. I promise. You don’t have the numbers or the skills. You couldn’t even enough people to vote, they aren’t gonna joined you in some armed resistance.
Use your brains, not our fists. You fist are just gonna get you stomped down faster. It’s exactly what the people in power want you to do. They want you to not use your brain, and immediately jump to violence. Downvoting me doesn’t mean I’m wrong, it just means you’re upset. It doesn’t change anything though.
