Some real joker shit happening in here.
I don’t really be on Lemmy but what the fuck is going on over there.
Ew. You want reddit? This is how you get reddit. Fash need to be hounded off with extreme zeal.
I’ve previously been against defederating, but seeing one of the main lemmy.ml admins defend fascists and actively promote a fascist instance has made me change my mind.
I genuinely don’t think there’s any way to salvage that instance.
I have one argument personally against de-federating, and that is we still dominate the all page, and if we can spread that message. I don’t think we can convert many people, but I do think that we can get some who stumble across Marxism Leninism, and that is something I think is valuable.
I think that one of the main goals of lemmy is getting people out of the claws of corporate, cia social media like reddit.
The less people on reddit, the weaker the usa mind control apparatus gets.
However, for this to work, there need to be instances for those kinds of people that are on reddit.
Most of them won’t know how federation works and will land on lemmy.ml. If they can’t be sent to an instance that fits them, they would probably go back to reddit, or something similar, which would go against that goal.
That said, the ban reason makes total sense.
