What’s with all the downvotes?

Saw a few threads get blasted, and a de-federation post - did I miss the drama?

That, I suppose.

But, they’re manuputing content, posting propaganda, brigading the votes in every thread.

Go read their comments, it’s a real classy group.

Ha, here’s a reply I got from their moderator:

Go and eat shit fed to you by your US masters as Europe crumbles, you pathetic eunuch.

Their most active user also posts “news” and “politics” all over Lemmy, all day, every day.

Users from lemmygrad asking what’s wrong with their instance are just outing themselves as unhealthy users, as far as I’m concerned…

It’s a toxic echo-chamer full of misinformation and propaganda, akin to the donald on reddit with it’s hateful and delusional rhetoric in one massive circle-jerk.

Fuck that cesspool.

To be fair, I think a lot of us would be confused when we just straight up have never seen a comment from them before.

Seeing that, yeah…that’s pretty bad…

I meant users from lemmygrad asking what’s wrong with the instance. Not users from other instances. I edited my comment to be more clear.

I stumbled into that instance from all a few times when I first joined Lemmy 4 weeks ago. There were not nearly as many users on lemmy at that time, so there were a lot of posts from that instance showing up in my feed…

But as reddit’s 3rd party apps have ended and we’ve had a huge increase in active users, it has really drowned out that toxic instance from my feed. It’s a good thing to me hearing you say most users now are unaware of them. I hope they stay in obscurity or are defederated.

Yeah.

I’m not a ML; I more-or-less lean toward anarcho-communist ideals, and am generally sympathetic to anti-capitalists, though, and have wandered into Lemmygrad on more than a few occasions, especially before everyone else showed up and they were one of the more active corners of the space.

It’s always like that. They’re just angry trolls, riling each other up.

You may want to pass a screenshot of that message to your instance admins. Lemmy.world defederated from exploding heads after screenshots of messages by their admins like yours.

I had never heard of them before, but then after the hack yesterday I saw a HUGE influx of their stuff and whatever the right-wing crap was too (something ‘explode’ or whatever). My whole feed was just filled with obvious propaganda crap that I would’ve expected from facebook.

Careful, they’ll shit BRICS if you keep up those kinds of comments. Just need to defederate and move on, leave them with the other idiots like the libertarians and flat earthers.

nobody here gives a shit if anything is newsworthy. Or true. Or propaganda. This place is a shit show.

I mean what did you expect, you came to their place and insulted them.

This tankie right there is especially not very bright. But, in other places, he’s invoking “dialectical materialism” like it’s some sort of Holy Grail that resolves “any of life’s issues”. Caesar on a cross… he reminds me of Edward Sallow’s poor understanding of “hegelian dialectics”
