    I used to be a right-libertarian when I was a teenager. I could have seen myself going down the fascist pipeline if I hadn’t been exposed to critiques of capitalism. It’s undeniable that there are problems with society now. We’re a capitalist society that’s been deregulating for decades and things have gotten worse. It’s obvious the problem wasn’t “lack of free-markets”. At this point you either have to reject social progressiveism as the problem or capitalism. Many of my friends chose the former I chose the later. Now everyone here on Lemmy is beating me up.

    I just want people to have control over their own lives and a big part of people’s lives are their place of work.

      They won’t win. They can’t get a corporate sponsored mod to control Lemmy as it’s decentralized. Just keep calling these losers like OP out and eventually they’ll pick up their toys and go back to their corporate controlled hellscapes like reddit and threads.
