Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.
That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.
Anyone have any word on what’s up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?
**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee “It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required”)
Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it’s not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.
Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.
Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.
Don’t let them silence you, guys. We should just move–not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.
EDIT: I’m not defending Nazi’s or Nazi salutes. I didn’t see the post and I haven’t seen any describe it other than “it was a Nazi salute!” Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?
My favorite part might be that every comment wintermute ever left is GONE. Maybe it was a personal choice, maybe his tail is between his legs and he ran. Either way, Lemmy is a better place now. Thank you admins!
Wintermute changed his name to necromancer
He doesn’t show up with that name in Voyager. Whatever you want to call him, he’s gone.
So you think Lemmy is a better place without alternative views and opinions that you don’t like?
I think any place can be improved by the removal of Nazis and fascists.
Stop putting words in my mouth. This is the bad faith this community is known for.
I agree.
What words did I put in your mouth? Are you saying that you think there should be conservative communities allowed on Lemmy?
This type of circle talking is exactly what bad faith trolls engage in.
You know who that user is, right?
No. Why?
It’s not worth interacting with them.
I gathered that already haha
I know. I am seeing trolls doing it right now in this thread.
They aren’t alternative views. They’re Nazi/Fascist views, and I absolutely think they should be silenced. We fought a war about this.
Nope. So do you think that the US is suddenly majority Nazi/Fascist? Because the Democrats got their asses handed to them in the election.
And if that’s true in your eyes, then how the fuck did you all lose to a bunch of “Nazis and Fascists,” cuz that seems pretty easy to beat.
By having less people that hate Nazi fascists than there are people that love Nazi fascists voting during an election? Seriously… this should be UNIVERSAL knowledge. Only a MONK living in the mountains wouldn’t be able to put together something so simple.
Enjoy your day, friend! :)
So are you saying that the US is majority Nazi now? You planning to leave then? Or are you content living among Nazis?
Lol. Patriotic Americans don’t leave when Nazis show up.
We have another remedy for them. Patriotic Americans that came before us set an example for us.
Maybe we should look at the example of the people of Lincoln Heights chasing Nazis off and burning their Nazi flags. Lol, I think I can see you in this video running away with your tail between your legs.
LMAO
I’m not a Nazi though. And sure, chaste Nazi’s off. But republicans aren’t Nazi’s so…
No, but the majority of voting Americans just voted for a party whose leaders perform Nazi salutes at presidential inaugurations and don’t speak out against the literal Nazis that vote for them because they want their votes. So if you vote for a party with literal Nazis in leadership roles, I’m going to start wondering if you’re a Nazi. Associate with Nazis and you are a Nazi. Give power to Nazis and you might be a Nazi.
Again, do you know nothing of history? Hitler Nazis gained power by gaining public support. We already know it’s possible for a populace to be so stupid as to willingly give power to fascists. All the fascists have to do is target a desperate and under-educated populace by stoking fear and hatred. That’s exactly what Trump and Republicans have done. We know it’s possible, and it literally happened within living memory, yet here you are pretending it’s not.
Seek a better education. You desperately need it.
So sounds like you are leaning towards thinking that over half of the voting americans are Nazis.
So your party lost to Nazi’s and Fascists?! lol So are you gonna stay in a country of Nazis and Fascists?
Yes. And we’re going to handle them the way Americans handle Nazis and fascists. You might want to hide.
Why? I’m not a Nazi or a Fascist. And I’m sure as fuck not afraid of some random Lemmy poster who’s never left his house before. lmao
