Everything I hate is now tankie. We must stop this by getting them to censor what we think is tankie
Hey, remember when some nerd got mad about tankies and wrote their own lemmy-alike, and it fell on its fucking ass and the primary instance had to be defederated because it was taken over by spammers? Maybe these nerds should stfu.
The reason I ended up on lemmygrad/hexbear is because I saw folks posting to .ml/.world
So keep up the praxis?
lemmy.world is a joke instance. They do not address bigotry properly and are so boot-lickers for big companies that they blocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com . Any serious user should’ve close their account there the moment that happened.
I wonder if Lemmy.world’s Red Scare will result in more leftists leaving .world, and more Liberals from Reddit replacing them, creating a schism between Lemmy.world and related instances, and Grad/Hexbear/.ml. a sort of Multipolar Lemmy.
any leftist that stayed in lemmy.world after they blocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com and defederated from hexbear.net is not that leftist
It’s already happening when lemmy.world defederated from Hexbear. In general, there’s no point in using Lemmy, which is still missing features from Reddit, unless you:
-
Subscribe to political ideology that’s against the Reddit mainstream (eg socialism and open fascism)
-
Are into TOS-violating activities (piracy, shoplifting, buying drugs online, depraved pedo shit)
The people doing it for FOSS reasons are few in number, and the people doing it because they hate spez have crawled back to Reddit.
By defederating from Hexbear and Lemmygrad as well as being intolerant of that piracy comm means that lemmy.world will eventually slide towards fascism as its way of growing. In general, other Lemmy instances will either fade into irrelevance or adopt one of the two. If a Lemmy instance isn’t spicy enough, it’ll either orient itself towards socialism or towards fascism. Look at an instance like beehaw. They are openly contemptuous of the socialist instances, but since they, to their credit, also refuse to slide towards fascism, they have become irrelevant.
