It's a tiny fringe, just here on Lemmy they can be quite noisy ๐คท
This goes for almost any obnoxious behavior on the internet. It's about 5-10% of people who are just assholes (of whatever description), and everyone else is fine. It only seems like the whole place is jerks because of how noisy the jerks are, and how skilled they are at amping up the normal people into noisy arguments that go nowhere.
Any time you're in one of those comments sections, take a step back and look at the number of people who are actually initiating the dickishness and you'll see that it's a tiny tiny minority.
not really my experience now that they have legitimate fash instances. getting Sybil downvoted is pretty hilarious though.

I rest my case
.worldis fascistโฆthe jerks also go around... harassing and insulting people. and like take a personal quest to ban/report you because you upset them.
normal people who disagree with you don't do that. like i read internet comments i don't like, laugh, and move on with my life. and if i engage in reply I'm not insulting/harassing the person, going into their comment history to report old comments, etc.
commies are eternal protesters
nice to have something to do i guess
