For even more context, this specific post has to be seen with other posts and comments made by the administration.

For example, the deportation ASMR video I also linked. Or Trump’s statement “they’re poisoning the blood of our country.” Or his statement “they're not humans, they're animals.” There are many others.

The larger trend of these instances is to dehumanize a specific group of people. So while this specific instance in isolation may not be sufficient to infer their larger message, when it is seen in the larger context then it becomes clear.

Source for anyone

Also let’s never forget the deportation ASMR video

The cruelty is the point

And in fact, if someone doesn’t care about the suffering of animals, I want nothing to do with them.

You shouldn’t make fun of those people either…

It’s absolutely wild how the first time around, everyone left of center was against Trump, even if it was only posturing. This time around, he’s even worse and the same people are literally supporting him.

 

I know I can go to /instances to see a list of blocked instances but is there a log or something that lists why an instance was blocked?

For example xrs.cx is on the blocklist. I’ve never even heard of this instance and just picked this one from the list at random. When I go there it just seems like a tiny, run-of-the-mill instance. Not saying I don’t trust lemm.ee admins but I’m just curious.

I love this instance and am definitely not trying to create more work for anyone! I just didn’t know if this already existed or where to look.
