Let's treat eachother better; this isn't Reddit 2.0 (lemmy.world)

I'm already seeing a small but distressing increase in behaviors that are frankly embarrassing.

There's no need to make what seems like an extra effort to treat each other poorly. Being "casually" antagonistic, dismissive, and instigatory for its own sake is miserably sad.

We don't have to migrate the crummy reddit culture, too. Let's leave it back on the dumpster fire?

I believe the point is that there's literally no reason to bring it up. The post is about being better than the place that some users are currently trying to leave behind. Reddit is very big on identity politics. You could just not mention your political leanings in a reply to a post about doing better. If you didn't bring it up, no one would know and you wouldn't have to "prove" anything to anyone. It's pretty simple to avoid. I wrote all this without saying any specific political alignments including my own.
