Lemmy.world still discussing if they want to defederate from an instance taken over by exploding-heads.
An instance that includes such gems as
CW Transphobia, Homophobia
Strange pattern emerging from lemmy.world with an admin advertising their business in the adhd community, allowing virulently Islamophobic atheistmemes community and now repeating the exploding-heads (we have to patiently discuss blocking the instance) course of action instead of a preemptive defederation, it is their last resort though.
The post on lemmy.world discussing it as well: https://lemmy.world/post/2680147
As of this post the blocked instances are here

Liberals continue to prove they are just fascism-light.
This is why anti-communism should always be treated with suspicion.
Reading those comments makes me realize what a special place we have here.
I wonder if we were to do another people be more trepidatious maybe? Just given how weird things have gotten around here recently (imo) and how much the inter-instance drama has already become so prevalent of a topic. And we haven’t even federated yet!
There are valid reasons to federate, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried about some of the potential ways it could change this community.
Hexbear: Our community has different opinions on the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, and we are not pro-NATO.
Lemmy.world: Don’t federate with these tankies!
Rammy.site: <Straight up transphobia, homophobia, and other bigoted fascist rhetoric>
Lemmy.world: Uhm… should we really defederate from them just for being offended?
Scratch a bleeds, indeed.
“Oh sure they may be literal nazis openly spreading hate against trans people, but do we know their stance on NATO?”
Curious
Did they ever try to reach the admins here?
So they’re openly admitting that they’re treating a transphobic nazi instance better than a trans inclusive leftist one. Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds, every single time.
From the LW admin:
Honestly those ultra right-wingers are pretty bad but the ultra left-wingers are worse.
And the redditors of lemmy.world will lap this shit up
“LW Admins must be Nazi lovers and transphobes” so that one is correct then
which group of admins is saying this, the lemmy.ml admins? or lemmy.world
why do they all keep choosing the same names
I’m having trouble finding it in the Matrix room. Do you happen to have screenshots or preferably a timestamp we can scroll up to in the official room?
Please don’t think it’s because I don’t trust you. But they seem to be doing a damn good job taking command of the narrative and I’m seeing if we can get an archive of public recorded interactions for the Hexbear vs Dotworld incident going. Something unbiased we can post that’s independently verifiable and can allow general Lemmy users to form their own conclusions.
