Dbzero Governance Vote Post https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/63525728

Ahoy mateys!

A few of our users have recently pointed out that a lot of the pro-Zionist accounts on the fediverse nowadays seem to come from the feddit.org instance.

But whatever the excuse happens to be, they need to do better imo. Israel is currently the most violent, fascist and genocidal nation state in the Middle East (if you exclude the US military bases there). And yet feddit.org seems to regard the Palestinians fighting against Israel’s ongoing illegal occupation of their land as the real terrorists. ....

More context

Our instance already voted to ban pro-Zionist accounts (see https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/60585441 for reference) and the rule that was implemented is here: Golden Rule #8.

As further context, you can find relevant comments and discussion in this post by a banned feddit admin in MoG (that fact they chose to post in MoG is in itself quite telling), and this post about their defederation from quokk.au over anti-semitism allegations has recently become active again. ...

Note 2: If you think feddit.org deserves a full instance ban instead, or have alternative suggestions, then please leave your comments below. If enough people think that’s the better option, then we’ll do that instead.

In the end the Post had around 70% of support by dbzer0 users, who in the comments also called for defederation.

Here is a Link to Dbzer0 instances tab https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/instances where if you go to blocked instances you can see fedddit.org is now defederated

i dont think feddit has made a post now, but when they do i will add it

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.

They fully support the Russian invasion

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)

[-] Loco_Mex@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

So critical that we never ever hear them criticize Russia for it.

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

So critical you'll be instantly banned for saying anything critical of Russian imperialism.

There is no genocide in Ukraine. Ukranians are Russians.

[-] CybranM@feddit.nu 2 points 1 month ago

Truly a .ml stance haha. Do you think the people in Ukraine consider themselves Russian? Is that why they're fighting tooth and nail to avoid the Russian oppressors?

[-] FranklyIGiveADarn@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 month ago

They're fighting because the US made them. They would be perfectly happy Russians if not for NATO.

[-] CybranM@feddit.nu 2 points 1 month ago

And this is why normal users look at .ml with disdain haha

They fully support the Russian invasion and genocide of Ukraine though, hence the hypocrisy.

Did you know that inventing "genocides" based on perceived vibes and presenting them as equivalent to extremely real, well-documented, and universally agreed upon actual genocides is a form of genocide denial? Liberals such as yourself have been doing the work of fascists like this for a long time, this type of Holocaust denial is called "double genocide theory".

What Russia is doing:

Tens of thousands of children are being abducted, stripped of their identity, and taught to hate their homeland

Definition of Genocide:

Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

Everything is a cia color revolution to them.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 month ago

And everything is a genocide to you

[-] LeninWeave@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No, this one is just a self-serving fabrication by a few nazi-supporting governments.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 month ago

Do you know what the word "allegation" means?

Do you also insist there's a genocide in South Africa?

[-] pilferjinx@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

Is that the word used to describe Trump's pedophilia?

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 month ago

It's also the word to describe Hilary Clinton's baby eating

Allegations of genocide

International recognition

Map showing that very few countries recognize this as a genocide.

As I said, by treating this as equivalent to the near universally recognized genocide in Gaza, you are engaging in a form of genocide denial. Funny, the map of (the very few) countries that recognize this has a large overlap with the map of countries that do the same form of denial with the Holocaust.

Is your name Lenin Weave after the way you dodge criticism?

[-] agentant@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

I don't see how highlighting Khurbn denial is dodging criticism.

[-] LeninWeave@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

accuses me of dodging criticism for making a very specific argument about how treating substantiated and unsubstantiated accusations of genocide as equivalent is a form of genocide denial without addressing the argument at all

Somehow, you don't see the irony.

[-] hobovision@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

You weren't criticizing me, I am just watching you dodge theirs.

[-] LeninWeave@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I didn't dodge theirs, I directly addressed it. Their "criticism" is a form of genocide denial. They are fabricating "equivalent" atrocities to a real genocide. Similarly, your "neutral observer" trick here is a cheap way to pretend you're not taking a side in an argument so that you can dodge criticism of the side you are picking. See the irony?

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 month ago

They directly addressed it, ya lying freak
