I do. It's not enough.
No-discussion downvoters are a massive problem here moreso than any other site I've ever used.

Oh man... you're basically speaking directly to why I made our small community (consider this a personal invite). As I said elsewhere, I find Lemmy actively hostile.
The number of indignant replies and comment-free downvotes we get inundated with continually is… disheartening.
People want content, but actively detract from any content that doesn’t explicitly cater to them. It’s hard to take.
Nope. Originally her party was elected when somebody else was at the helm, and then when Jason Kenney retired, she was just kind of put there.
Literally no one in the public voted for her originally.
I'm in Alberta but I vote NDP.
Before he left, Kenney was actually warning that the crazies were trying to take over. Hell, we thought Kenney was crazy. Turns out he was right about this one thing.
Literally nobody in the public voted for her in the first term at least.
Edit: WTF, Lemmy. I'm factually correct. Look at her Wikipedia page if you don't believe me.
She was appointed when Jason Kenney resigned. She won in the second term, not the first term. In the first term, the public was not given a chance to vote for her or not.

We frequently get one-time posters coming in and flaming (or downvoting without reading) on any thread that may not agree with them, then when challenged with sources, they vanish. It's brutal. I wish we could disable certain behaviours on our instance or in the Community itself.

As someone who started and is extremely active in a small community, I find Lemmy actively hostile to the point where I'm considering closing up after less than a month.

As someone who runs a community, the ability to disable downvotes and have more customization within that Community would help a great deal.
I also wouldn't mind the ability to post something like a Delta on a comment to show a changed view or something.
despite that being a dictionary definition of bigotry
Well, here is the dictionary definition of bigotry.
It fits both Alito and anyone who dislikes his views. I wasn't aware the definition was so broad but it basically applies to everyone who dislikes anyone else's view on anything.
There would be no way for them to gain that knowledge. I could believe that they potentially lost their primary language and spoke a mild amount of other languages that they had picked up by osmosis...
But I am doubtful that they would be able to have a full conversation with a native speaker.
There's no way the human brain could just conjure up a fully functioning secondary language that the person had no exposure to.
Huh. Reading the article now that I have time, they cite massive immigration as an issue, not to mention training people from other countries who then go home.
I know people in hospitals that retired when COVID hit, but not GPs. Not to say it isn't the case, but I'd like to see a large study showing WTF is going on.
That's called being a centrist or an independent. Lemmy hates those.
