I swear all the winners are messaging me from sh.itsjust.fascism

It's an instance that doesn't require an interview and mostly has an absent admin so .world admins can't pressure them to ban accounts 'for the good if the fediverse'. Of course some sh.it heels use it but I plays an important roll.

I really disagree that any role sh.itjust.works plays is positive, though. It hosts MWoG and NCD, some of the most right-wing communities on the Fediverse, and moreover the admin thinks China and Russia are pushing "gender politics" to radicalize western youths against the US. The fact that there's no interview is by design, it serves as a foothold for right-wingers and fascists who would be banned elsewhere.

That use of "transgender ideology" without a hint of irony

[–] [email protected] 11 points 12 hours ago

Yep, and that it's highly upvoted tells you a lot about that community in general.

Would you recognize irony if you sat on it?
