I’m a pleasant human but find myself often downvoted for what I consider an average social democratic view; taking the viewpoint that, in my country, cops are generally trustworthy, the market works when regulated by a well functioning democracy and it’s ok to be wealthy, but expect to be properly taxed.
You really need to stop saying “average” when you mean “well off, white, westerner”.
Hot take but I think people who spread misinformation should be downvoted.
Oh man, you must not deal with cops a lot.
I see you believe in fairytales
Or I live in a country with better cops than you?
In terms of delivering the highest proven outcomes for the broadest amount of people I’ve not seen evidence that anything beats a well regulated market. If new evidence is presented I shall gladly revise my opinion.
So you don’t live in the UK?
Not sure the country you are referring to exists. Maybe Japan?
Japanese cops do fuckall. Which is really nice coming from America.
those views are considered heinous on many lemmy instances, that’s why.
the lemmy hivemind is largely socialist/communist, or at least anti capitalist. it’s also intolerate of anyone with moderate or conservative viewpoints on social and/or economic issues.
just accept that and ignore the haters. most instances desperately need more diversity in their viewpoints.
the good thing is unlike reddit, you won’t be banned for having a different point of view.
