worldnews at .ml is a dumpster fire. First community I had to completely scrub from my instance because it was just so toxic from top to bottom.

Edit: Also, will share my last comment there before I self-banned and purged that cesspit from my instance. This is in reply to someone making a fat joke about Kim Jong Un:

Good 'ol ambiguous Rule 1 lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What you didn't realize is that Kim Jong II is actually the mod

I tried to give that instance the benefit of the doubt at first, but I just block all lemmy.ml communities when I see them now. There's just too much user and ideology overlap with lemmygrad and hexbear. The worldnews sub was especially bad though. Disinformation & insults everywhere, but they're never removed despite reports, because they're part of their side & agenda. It's basically lemmygrad in disguise.

I was also banned from [email protected] and had comments removed for "Re-enforcing neo-liberal cultural hegemony" and "Believes in objectivity in media lmao".

My offense? Saying that a report sourced solely from an eye-witness account via Al-Jazeera regarding another massacre of civilians and aid workers in Gaza needed to be corroborated by further evidence before we regard it as hard fact. The irony is I'm very much pro-Palestinan.

According to the mods, however, that apparently means I have to throw all media literacy out of the window and blindly accept any anti-Israel claims without question.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I start almost every comment I make on those instances with

I know this will net me a ban

to play a bit of reverse psychology with the mods there, who don't touch my comments when the denizens there inevitablely say

Oh yeah you think you're so smart well we don't ban opposing opinions unlike some places

And the mods there have their hands tied because banning me would prove their own guys wrong.

It's worked pretty well so far.

There's such a polarization and paranoia that any comment that's not 100% unwavering support is considered an attack.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That community is wild, but the discussion over Gaza over there is fucking crazy. Al Jazeera is one of their more credible sources, you can find articles from websites nobody every heard of, small blogs that state IDF soldiers are eating babies. And that is no exaggeration, that was the last thing I read before I left that community...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Exactly what prompted me to comment, since the blog that sourced Al-Jazeera also added certain details that didn't seem based on anything like actual evidence. Although I admit it wasn't anything near as extreme as the IDF canibalizing babies.

If we must call out pro-Israel propaganda that makes outrageous, unsubstantiated claims like that, we must do the same for pro-Palestinian propaganda, regardless of how we personally feel about the conflict.

This is the comment and of course toothy banned me for 3 days too.

Just like they did for "sinophobia" when I expressed misgivings about Chinese and Hungarian cops joining forces 🀦

All of the .ml instances are absolutely Russian psyops and you can’t change my mind

(I jest… mostly…)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Doubt. More than likely just useful idiots.

I'm convinced they're US psyops to make communists look like idiots. I don't agree with most of communism, but I can respect people with different views. But the tankies on Lemmy are doing such a hard double dutch rudder on China and Russia they can't be real. Nobody is that stupid, right? And then I remember how many people are going to vote for trump. Yes, the world really is this stupid all around. Idiots are taking over. The stupid people are breeding. Nationalists that feel it's their duty to populate the homeland.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

You're right that they aren't real communists, that's a mask they wear to spread Kremlin and CCP propaganda.

The idea that they're run by the US government is ridiculous, they're full of hateful anti-Western content.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Yeah, its the stark advocating of minority rights/protection on one hand and the intense jerking off of dictators with the other that breaks my brain with Tankies
