Also, if you have doubts about brigading, Discuit have a brigading post on their meta community: https://discuit.net/DiscuitMeta/post/pTyw2MZw

You are on an instance running Mbin, which iirc sorts things entirely differently, using Mbin (& Kbin)-only "Boosts" that ignore the external upvotes that Lemmy uses.

But more importantly, it looks like a lot of the most extremist content is being removed from your instance even before you have to make that call on your own. e.g. without an account I can see that the last post from https://fedia.io/u/@[email protected] was a month ago, wheres if you follow the link you'll see that they made two posts and two more comments within the last hour. They are extremely prolific!!!

So e.g. you can read posts about those posts - like this one: https://fedia.io/m/[email protected]/t/1454997/Tankie-believes-women-s-rights-in-Afghanistan-are-the-same-as - but if you search for the title you won't see the actual post, as your instance seems to have banned it. The rest of the community is there (https://fedia.io/m/[email protected]), minus this account. I don't see anything about this in a Lemmy modlog, but I don't know how to check that for Mbin (especially without an account?).

This is one of those times where how the Fediverse works is not just like email:-) - unless like Google would refuse to send or receive emails to/from Tim Cook of Apple ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ:-).
