    Honestly, as a centrist I’ve thought about leaving Lemmy multiple times and this is by far the biggest reason. I know I can’t have an intelligent discussion with someone if I don’t agree with them and god forbid I bring up anything positive about religion, they will crucify me every time. It’s the equivalent of them putting their fingers in their ears and just yelling. No thanks.

      Just send it man. Post and ignore the replies. If everyone who thought like you was to scared to post then you’d never know there were others.

      There is no consequence to getting down voted on Lemmy. Its fine to go against the grain as long as you aren’t breaking rules.

        That’s fair and appreciate the support. A reason I don’t sometimes is that I want to engage in discussion when I don’t have time or the energy. If I could turn off reply notifications for each post that would be helpful.
