Why are most people here are negative and rude?

Just to be clear here, I am not talking about instance, rather I am asking about the whole community.

There is no one I seen here who even had expressed any passion towards anything really.

I cannot understand how did that happen?

    We’re negative doomscrollers, true. But most people seem pretty polite, at least in my experience.

      Your right about the doom scrollers part. Everyone on Lemmy atleast on the larger subs are always negative. Politics are dominating the main subs and explore page. It’s such a turn off. Politics needs to generally stay out if the lime light. Instead of doom posts thrown in your face. Non stop.

        We all have our reasons for being here. The politics is definitely depressing, but it’s something a lot of Lemmites have in common.

        You’re right that it’d be nice if there was more going on.

      I can be negative. But I love people and want the best for everyone. What I don’t like are the toxic systems of control that some people are under, and some people follow. Aand sometimes I can be swept up in the injustice, and lose my patience with extreme followers.

      I apologise in advance to this community if I make someone’s mood worse, instead of better. I can often fail, and yet we should all strive to be a healthy member of the communities we inhabit!
