You can block it for yourself if that works for you. You don't have to limit other people's options.
It doesn't work, on Lemmy block is nothing more than a mute, and the instance "block" (mute) does not even affect the individual users of an instance, just hides the comms of that instance from your view
Lemmy's "block" still leaves you open to all manner of brigading that they've been known to do
And it still allows conspiracy theories, propaganda and misinformation to spread and fester and affect users who are unaware
They literally have articles over there spreading the Russian propaganda that Putin is justified in invading Ukraine because it's "full of Nazis"
Besides this is the Threadiverse, there will always be an instance with wide federation if you as an individual choose to open yourself up to that kind of "content"
I can block .ml communities in my GUI. But I can't block its users, unless I go 1 by 1. Blocking the communities is big, but not enough.
I think you can block the entire instance, not community by community or user by user.
After lemm.ee went down I joined ml because it was the largest instance π
I didn't know the backstory
.world is Shitlibia so you did fine.
Lol it's ok, they do things purposefully like that to an extent to get that result. Like if you go to Lemmygrad or Hex's homepage its quite clear you're somewhere weird that needs further investigation.
You go-to lemmy.mls homepage and it looks like a normal "privacy focused" instance. Until you innocently comment in support of Ukraine or something and find yourself being dunked on and banned for supporting a "Nazi regime"
Just like how NATO is a defensive alliance
If you could be so kind as to list the number of times NATO has gone on an offensive war, I'll be waiting.
Russia has a history of invading its neighbors, with several notable examples including the Soviet invasions of Hungary in 1956, Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Afghanistan in 1979. More recently, Russia invaded and occupied Crimea in 2014 and has been involved in conflicts in Georgia and Ukraine.
.world needs .ml else it would just become Reddit 2.0, just as boring and asinine, but without the traffic. .world is the kiddie pool... but not everyone knows how to swim, so it fills an important role!
But your logic supports .world defederating .ml so that when a user is ready to "leave the kiddie pool" they do so by moving to a wider instance, like .zip
Everyone needs a taste of anti-imperialist and non-Western takes, either for their sanity or just for their ideological development. I know Americans are gonna need them since the empire is coming home with full force, for instance. Without them, without 'radicals' like those in .ml, the folks will just be fed a new narrative to curtail their cognitive dissonance (it's the most imperceptible of buzzes for the least cerebral among us but it's still there) and they'll eat it up because that's all they're exposed to. So, no, they should be connected, for the sake of exposure. It's important too for those more .ml-coded to read, post and quickly check the downvote/upvote ratio in .world just like it was/is on big subreddits to get a feel of what the average literate Westerner, who at least considers discussion important (better than your average American, for instance), is thinking/has been fed recently.
By that 'logic' everyone needs a taste of white supremacy, Christian nationalism, Nazis, and so on.
Certain opinions aren't worth giving any consideration to because they're so stupidly, pig-headedly wrong. The street corner preacher frothing at the mouth over LGBTQ people is one, .ml and the former hexbear (world's smallest violin plays a sad song for their passing) instances being prime examples.
Lol, Tankies just simp for authoritarian regimes like Russia and NK that claim to be communistic.
If you want to pull people to your political side, then you can do so without relying on misinformation and conspiracy theories. Which is unfortunately not what the admins of .ml have chosen to do.
I think they are saying it's important that ML people see more nuanced takes. Though without a coherent paragraph structure it's difficult to tell.
They're not here to see "more nuanced takes" nor they care about them. They are here to brigade posts, spread propaganda and make any discussion a pain. You can't even imagine how often tankies tried to tell me the history of my country is fake and they know the ultimate truth about it all, way better than the people who actually lived that history.
I'm not agreeing with them. I'm just trying to do a translation
Silly comes in different shapes, but the imperial narrative will almost always be untrue and always serve immoral interests!
What would you guys even talk about?
Idk memes n stuff
bicker* :D
Hah! Do you really believe this would make things better? (X) Doubt
A lot of the people giving ML a bad reputation came over from Hexbear after they were defederated by almost everyone, I suspect the angry commies would just create a new account on another instance.
And? Better to let them have to engage as a normie instead of having an entire instance astroturfing their BS.
I'd rather they stay on ML, that way I can block the instance and never hear from them.
Thank you for being the voice of reason. You may not want to hear from socialists because you're a fake CIA liberal, but other people deserve to hear our message and to be banned by our great admins
Honestly .ml and .world deserve each other. Sh.it.just.works too, most common in my blocked user list.
What did we do?
We exist.
Nah, probably because some people find the url funny and annoy people with that account.
Be bigger than them. Probably sees your instance as some sort of threat. They always shit on the big instances, I've seen Hex users refer to SJW as "Shit Just Stinks" before and they were celebrating the .ee shutdown. They consider .world some sort of right-wing instance run as a CIA/fed psyop
But they're a dbzero user, not an ML
Edit: I guess those aren't mutually exclusive
Grad, Hex and .ml users have been known to have many alts to help spread their "message"
Do these people not ever talk to anyone in real life? How do you arrive at thinking all real humans are Marxists/Leninists?
You mean Marxist-Leninists. Marxists/Leninists would be people who are either Marxists or Leninists, and as a Marxist-Leninist, I'm opposed to both. Marx was an idiot, he said "workers of the world unite" like he'd never heard of Communism In One Country. And Lenin was a counterrevolutionary who wanted the vanguard to work with the support of the workers. Marxism-Leninism, a political philosophy invented by our great leader Joseph Stalin, is far better than either Marxism or Leninism.
came here to make the exact same 1st statement. .world is quite a bully friendly instance.
Just look at my modlogs from them. Feds through and through.
I know nothing irt sh.itjust.works
sky traffic? wow so cool
Yeah, Hexbear and Lemmygrad are instant blocks. For .ml, you either joined on the wrong instance or are too deep into communist dreams
