Are you....

@freemo What's the point of this? "Very good people on both sides" or something? I have never even heard of alt-left or alt-center outside of alt-right gaslighting propaganda. As a newcomer, I watched the whole recent qoto drama with a lot of sympathy for you as an engaged but edgy free spirit who runs an excellent server and has his heart in the right place. But this alt-right dog-whistling is just eww, may be not intended, but still eww.

@herrsaalfeld the fact that altleft and alt center dont exist is the very joke this poll intends to point out. I woukd think the altcenter option made that obvious.

Why in the world woukd you assume bad faith with no context especially when in the comment threads i am seeing mocking the options? Come on you soubd like your better than that.

@freemo the context available to me is your understandable and loudly expressed anger about censorship overreach from various admins and what I've seen over the years from alt-right propaganda to normalize themselves through gaslighting and false equivalences. Into that comes a poll that seems to normalize alt-right by false equivalences "jokingly". So I am wondering WTF is that about? Probably just a bad joke? You will know.

@herrsaalfeld Yea your interpritation is **Way** off. No its not about normalizing alt-right.. its about laughing at the idea of a alt-center as an absurd idea... Literally the point of the poil is to agree with your stance of pointing out the absurdity of such things as an alt-center.

Whether it is a "bad joke" to mock ideas like alt-center I leave up to you to decide, but it is clear that is the intent from the comment thread.

@herrsaalfeld And to be fair censorship overreach isnt the issue.. defemation, lies, and the fediverse being manippulated by a nazi to pit LGBTQ allys against eachother is.
