Gonna be real with you:
I think it's a bit wild that we're still federated with instances that engage in censorship like this and have ideals that run counter to ours in so many ways. We literally have "No tankie shit" as an instance rule, yet we still let people like this spread their echo chamber nonsense through federation. You do realize that if they're allowed to spread their ideology freely when we aren't, that they have an advantage? “Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth” and all that good stuff.
They have decided we aren't worth listening to and their only reason they keep us around is to evangelize to. The fact I got an instance ban for this should be all the proof you need that discourse with these people is dead.
It's funny how you picture this authoritarianism, and then this very thread is exactly about that : either you defederate from hexbear or you defederate from lemmy.world is the request here.
I've seen far far more fascists on lemmy than I've seen tankies BTW.
So you know maybe it's lemmy.world that turned fascist and not lemmy.ml. Just food for thought here.
