It seems like the Fediverse has some very awesome people. Most of the conservatives are reasonable, havent seen any of the extremist conservatives I tend to see more often on facebook.

However while there are may wonderful neo-liberals on here (left leaning) it seems like all the worst, most vile and toxic examples of neo-liberals have chosen the fediverse as their home. Its like gab for the left.

I think there are enough quality people to make it ok, most of the extremists will block me the first time I try to have an adult conversation with them anyway so the problem solves itself quickly. It just makes me wonder what has made the fediverse so attractive to them in the first place.

My ideal social network would have rational scholars ready to debate differences of an opinion every chance they get. With extremists (particularly politically speaking) no where to be found. A boy can dream...
