Sure, but some places do have more influence on the public discourse than others. Lemmy will remain relatively uninfluential until it becomes more user-friendly, and/or more well-known. So any left wing stuff here is going to have less of an effect than it did on Reddit or other such places, for now.
I feel like once good Lemmy apps exit betas and go to the App Store it’ll be bigger. Memmy is great, super user friendly. Once people can get access to it without jumping through hoops (TestFlight, not that complicated but maybe more than what the average user is willing to do), and once the app is ironed out (already most of the way there), it’ll be a much easier shift for a lot of people
