Defederation from Lemmygrad.ml

Hello World,

Today, after careful consideration and evaluation of recent events, we have decided to defederate from Lemmygrad.

Regrettably, we have observed a significant increase in hate speech and calls to violence originating from the Lemmygrad instance. Due to the severity of the posts and comments, we are not waiting for the next Lemmy update that will allow users to block instances.

At Lemmy.world, we have always strived to foster an inclusive and welcoming user environment. However, recent posts and comments from Lemmygrad have clearly violated our server rules and, more importantly, our core values. We firmly believe that hate speech and incitement of violence have no place in our community, regardless of personal beliefs or affiliations.

As always, we encourage all users to report any content they deem inappropriate or harmful. No matter one’s stance in any conflict, Lemmy.world will always take immediate action to remove and ban any posts or comments that incite violence or propagate hatred.

We encourage everyone to continue engaging in discussions within the boundaries of respect and understanding. As we move forward with this decision, we remain committed to providing all community members with a safe and welcoming space. We appreciate your continued support and cooperation in upholding our shared principles.

Thank you,

The Lemmy.World Team

Lost all respect for lemmygrad when they deleted a comment i made about voting for the lesser of 2 evils being the correct course of action to advance the interests of the Prolitariat in the United States. They care more about larping as revolutionaries than enacting change that actually helps the Working Class.

Leading the revolution from the $3,500 custom-built gaming rig their white upper middle class parents bought them, and while pursuing a degree that 99.99% of the working class would never end up in a job requiring it.

JokeDeity,

Good, are you defederated from hexbear as well? If not, please do.

tommysk87,

hexbear I am all in! That shit is a cancer.

sirdrakexviii,

Well this is a shock, anyone know what kind of stuff they’ve said exactly?

echodot,

Whatever the equivalent of a Chinese weeb is.

You can imagine the sort of stuff, capitalism is evil, the west is evil, tinneman Square never happened in fact there’s no place by that name / it was all a conspiracy by the evil West.

Basically what you get is a bunch of 12-year-olds decided that they were political commentators. They’ve looked at the world and they’re unhappy with it and clearly the solution is communism.

It would be funny, but they engage in brigading and it’s annoying. If you want to see it sign out of your account and go to the instance directly.

clutchmatic,

Good to see that instance go as it didn’t contribute to public discourse. Thanks for the practice work!

Finally. So sick of seeing their communist bullshit. No matter what I do.

This has made me to seriously consider leaving lemmy.world

Capitalism is a serious existantial threat to our ecosystem, rendering all our lives more meaningless with each passing day - all its enemies are my friends

But, however, just looking at the name… Lemmygrad, this rhetoric is just designed to hush everyone into the old trenches and that way keeping the capitalist death machine chugging along. To be the most effective, the truth of socialism has to rebranded and craftfully injected into new ideas. This is the only way forward.

So, good riddance I say!

TheBlue22,

About time.

Tolerating intolerance will only lead to intolerance.

DeriHunter,

Thank you good riddence

Destraight,

Lemmygrad literally has a community to hate on NATO. That makes them the bad guys

talos_the_true_god,

Free speech is important. Every opinion should be heard and considered. However, your freedom ends when it crosses over someone else’s. Good riddance, i had blocked most of lemmygrad’s communities anyways, since all they did was spread propaganda and hate.

Love the mod team (being ex-reddit, never thought I’d say that), the transparency and clarity of their communication with the community is great!

Epicurus0319,

Amen to the mod part! Shows just what forum admins actually caring about said forum’s community can do for it

DogMuffins,

Free speech is important. Every opinion should be heard and considered.

This is as good a place as any to point out that if we federate again after users have the ability to block instances, brigadeers with ill intent will ensure that some opinions are heard more than others.

Thank you so much, it’s like the Winter Solstice came early! They’re literally a bunch of sweaty, genocide-loving neckbeards who never outgrew the college commie phase crying about how hard and unfair their upper-class suburban lives are under (their idea of) capitalism and how North Korea is secretly a paradise because “something something healthcare that probably exists there”- all from the $3000 computer whose SSD made by abused children in Taiwan has 694.20 gigabytes of porn (shot by and starring filthy-rich adult content creators), in the comfort of their septuagenarian mothers’ basements on her personal, private property in Washington State- all made possible by capitalism. And they think they’d be better off under a system that would actually ship them off to die in Alaska on day one, instead of giving them a high rank and a state-issued bride. (But we Washingtonians don’t claim them)

I’m honestly surprised they had to cheer on the murder of innocent children in Israel for you guys to do this for us, when they’d spent months being all “ackchyually the Holodomor didn’t happen but I hope it happens again because daddy putin says all Ukrainians are nazis, therefore it must be true and they’d deserve it!!1

Most of their communities were already blocked, for months.

TheLurker,

Lemmygrad is a cesspool of pseudo intellectual unemployed neckbeards complaining about how oppressed they are under the yoke of capitalism, from their mother’s basement in Wisconsin.

Good riddance to it.

nbafantest,

Great call, kudos. Absolute trash.

I do wonder why we didn’t defederate from them long ago, it’s not like they recently started showing signs of who and what they really are, they’ve been very transparent about their motives since day 1. Still though good it was done now before they started spamming things here (not sure if they do that or if it’s just hexbear that spams).

steakmeout,

Hexbear next.

They have been defederated on Lemmy World for months: lemmy.world/post/2498330

But you are on aussie.zone so they might still be federated and will explain why you see their posts and communities.
