Greetings gamers and those who wisely abstain,

It has become clear to us that even in the short while we’ve federated, the situation with sh.itholefor.nazis is entirely untenable and we will be defederating immediately. Multiple instances of ableist and homophobic slurs directed at our users, overwhelming litigiousness against even the most innocuous comments by our users, and just a general ethos of reactionary behavior. We’re done and out.

One of the concerns with embracing TC69 thought on site bans with federation is that the user would basically be just hexbear-side hidden and blocked from our comms, free to post reactionary content without the fear of Lenin behind them. That was a silly concern. We will resume our pre-federation policies regarding site bans.

      The best is when they claim China is pro LGBT and has marriage equality and all sorts of insane shit. China disappears people who talk openly about LGBT rights. If they’re too visible they silence them at minimum.

      It's cool when you're a lemmy.world poster bashing China, because you can just make up whatever while ignoring posts with actual sources.

        These libs are so smug.

        Western nations weren't any better (and we're now getting worse because we're seeing a rise in fascists) for LGBT+ rights, but they intentionally ignore that point.

          Luckily in the most democratic capitalist nation, the USA there is no trans person who fears for repercussions of the state and their community. /s

        China's restrictions on speech suck but the idea that people are just being black-bagged and shot left and right is ridiculous.

      I love that smug self-congratulatory thing where they pretend "the tankies" are all just edgy teenagers who just haven't grown up and seen the real world yet. That's a fun thought-terminator, I recommend trying it yourself sometimes.

      Even I'm probably older than the majority of those reddit refugees, and I guarantee many people on this site are older than me.
