    Except for elitism, I am and post none of those things. Elitism is great when applied properly and with humility. Surely the actually most capable people should be leading things.

    I’m all for seeing opinions that differ from mine, but outright ignorance that everybody is cheering is disgusting and indeed very anti-elitist in the worst way.

    I can and will fix this myself though. Some lemmy clients allow hiding the scores, just unfortunately not the default client of my instance.

      Elon, you’re an idiot.

      But go on, protect your own comfort by hiding scores rather than facing criticism head on. That’s real confidence in your ideology.

      Elitism has never, and will never, be applied fairly. Hierarchies create fascism. “Capability” is never assesed neutrally, it’s assessed by existing power structures and by those in power who look and think similarly. Hence, bigotry, hence fascism, hence authoritarianism. If you believe we live in a meritocracy right now you’re either a billionaire, politician, or just a useful idiot.

      Your ideology literally disgusts me.
