The minute you tolerate ONE neo-Nazi in an internet forum is the minute they all flood in, these motherfuckers talk to each other, they have a siege mentality like you wouldn't believe, and when one of them finds a safe space they all rush in and poison everything, next thing you know some piece of shit is comparing the persecution of mass murderers to genocide
I am normally looking at a few different instances but had to come hexbear to refresh my mind after seeing some maddening takes about protesting on lemmy.ml just a minute ago...
You ever think about how 4chan was this place where you'd spam boxy, do random humor, prank call pizza places, etc because they had this super lax moderation style? Now it's a bastion for white supremacy. It's unusable with pornography and slurs.
Really showed their priorities when the only things modded away from the "anything goes" 4ch!n boards were, like... furry art. All that gore/snuff porn and nazi shit was fine.

I migrated instances yesterday for this exact reason, lemmy.ml is a bit better than some others like world but it still gets pretty bad

Here's the now kind of classic twitter story about a surly bartender bodying a nazi out of his bar.
