MODERATORS
Its such an empty criticism when they federate with the ml instances.
Lemmy.ml, Hexbear.net, and Lemmygrad.ml are all extremely anti-Zionist. Further, dbzer0 defederated from Lemmygrad.ml, and is only federated with Lemmy.ml and Hexbear.net. What are you trying to say?
Nobody would ever accuse you people of defending Jews so it can't be that you are Zionists. Its about the simping for authoritarian regimes.
Idk where you got that those sites don't defend Jews. I feel very supported in those places, and the moderation on Hexbear at least takes antisemitism seriously(I can't say for the other two because I'm on there less often, but I'm yet to hear anything that would make me doubt that they defend their Jewish users as well)
You're on a .ml account so I'm by default assuming you're untrustworthy. If you cant see why anyone might get that then you might be blind. I'm sure I could go dig up some examples but then you'd have won by wasting my time proving something that is already obvious.
Communists absolutely defend Jewish peoples, Zionism is anti-semitic, especially anti-Yiddish. We also don't "simp for authoritarian regimes," we support socialist systems where the working classes hold the authority in society, rather than capitalists. None of this is "simping," I support worker-run structures because it's more equitable and democratic.
I feel like, despite this being explained every time, people still think "dictatorship of the proletariat" is a bad thing because of the word "dictatorship"...
No its because this person is lying. They dont honestly believe in a worker run democracy. Its just a palatable phrase they use to appear less extreme.
They support a political class with total control benevolently dishing out to the working population.
Nope, not what I believe at all, and the fact that you have to invent my beliefs proves you can't actually argue against my real ones.
I don't get it. Huh? I find sentiment on .ml extremely anti-Zionist.
They're pretty anti zionist. Only because Israel represents the west in all its brutality. They fully support the Russian invasion and genocide of Ukraine though, hence the hypocrisy.
wut? Even lemmygrad.ml doesn't - their support of the Russian Federation's invasion has always been critical, not full. Just like their support for Hamas is critical - it's extremely obvious that neither the capitalist-run RF nor the Islamist Hamas are groups they agree with at all.
(I am not a campist, I'm simply explaining the campist concept of critical support)
So critical that we never ever hear them criticize Russia for it.
So critical you'll be instantly banned for saying anything critical of Russian imperialism.
I think they're talking about stuff like the holodomor or the uyghurs in china.
Yeah, probably the South African white genocide too, right?
they didn't say it was hypocritical, just empty criticism. They are implying that ml instances are no less egregious about the types of bad content they allow, even if the content itself is different
They are wrong.
You might be a little biased.
Unlike yourself and that other user, who are simply neutral observers? lmao
"B-b-but my side virtuous (in all ways, and can do no wrong), while their side ignoramus (everything they do is because they are poopy-heads)!"
I wish I could add /s here but a good half the population on earth seems to hold to this as an invariant position, solidarity in the face of all obstacles, i.e. the Nazi bar effect.
Case in point: who doesn't love it when a religious institution offers food and shelter and medical care to the needy, or counsels people to forgive, laying down their burdens and seek therapy to thereby travel lighter through the world? It is the diddling kids part that for some strange reason (/s on this one) people tend to get upset?
Since we were talking about Zionism here, I will mention that Deuteronomy 13:5 (in the Torah, part of the Old Testament for Christian and Muslim and offshoot religious branches such as Mormonism) provides an EXTREMELY stern warning about those who would misuse their authority to lead people astray.
TLDR: intolerance paradox - if you tolerate the intolerant, it corrupts the entire system, giving it a bad reputation when people see the worst excesses and extrapolate that to infer the properties of the whole. e.g. Reddit is fascist, hence we did not stay and put up with it but rather moved here.
Does the NZ in your username stand for NaZi? Fucc off colonizer
feels like brexit in that they will no longer have influence or discussion with their sworn enemies
they will just circle jerk on their marxist island
lmao
It just shows how some people know jack shit and still throw their opinions around LMAO
This thread in a nutshell, lmao.
"People supporting "Israel", the Zionist entity enacting genocide on Palestinians, are identical to people supporting the USSR, which eliminated Nazism and saved tens of millions of lives from extermination"
Nice try but the USSR sided with the Nazis remember. They dont get any credit.
Jesus Christ. Westerners really are the most propagandized people on earth.
Meaningless coming from someone whos entire ideology is to support a uniparty with complete narrative control that executes anyone who thinks different.
????
Least incoherent shitlib
Russia is, in fact, not enacting genocide on Ukrainians. It's carrying out an invasion which we can condemn, but calling every conflict a genocide is actually a form of genocide denial, because it minimizes the horrors of actual genocides.
If you want to see criticism of Russia in Hexbear (my main instance), yesterday there was a post asking for peoples' opinions on Putin. Here's mine so you can see how much we "love the Russian government". You may be surprised to see that most comments and upvotes are highly critical of the contemporary Russian government.
Russia is, in fact, enacting genocide in Ukraine.
What Russia is doing:
Definition of Genocide:
The source for the tens of thousands of Ukrainian children being abducted is, unsurprisingly, the Ukrainian government. The Russian government makes claims about Ethnic Russians being cleansed in Donbas and I don't take those accusations as true either, until confirmed by independent journalistic reports. You'd do well to do a more critical analysis of wartime propaganda by countries involved in wars. I've had this conversation before with several people, revisited the sources available, and there is no independent journalistic work proving tens of thousands of Ukrainian children being abducted.
"The source for the crime is, unsurprisingly, the victim, the criminal is denying any wrongdoing" hmmm
Do you really think States under war have no reason to do atrocity propaganda? And you're mischaracterizing what I said, I denied similar accusations made by Russia
The ICC has an arrest warrant on Putin for these abductions.
Putin has used a ukaz/presidential decree to streamline the process of Ukrainian children being made Russian.
Here's your Independent Journalistic Report:
But sure, keep telling the world it's only Ukrainian propaganda. I'm ending this conversation here to log off, I've got better things to do than deal with a debatebro hexbear user trying to excuse genocide.
