@jf_718 It's unfortunate, IMO, but a lot of Fediverse users that I see really enjoy being in an echo chamber here, with some people actually openly calling for that.
And so if you don't sing exactly the same song as they do, all sorts of messages are projected onto you, all sorts of assumptions made.
I don't think that's good for society or for individuals, but not only is what you describe alive and well, but it's being celebrated and promoted here.
