Over the past few days, @MrKaplan@lemmy.world/@MrKaplan@piefed.world has banned multiple users, blocked entire comms, and now defederated from Anarchist.Nexus over their anti-Zionist stance.

This extreme overreaction and general power trippin' bastard behavior stems from Lemmy.world's history of pro-Zionist views. And now MrKaplan is seeking out the flimsiest pretext to to enact his own personal vendetta.

Free Palestine, Death to Israel, Death to Zionism.

Lemmy.world is a ZioNazi instance. Avoid it like the plague.

Do y'all remember when you were like, 14 or 15, and you had your first big political opinion. That moment where you realized that there was something going on that was bad or didn't make a lot of sense, and appealed to your sense of injustice. And then, for the next few years it was all you talked about with people because, like, how is it possible that they didn't get it, you know? And you were just so informed on the issue that it couldn't even be possible that there was any nuance, because you were so clearly and obviously right?

I feel like that's what lemmy.ml is every time it comes into my feed.

This is projection

[-] Diva@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

I had strong convictions as a teenager, then learned to rationalize injustice as an adult. You should too.

way to self-report

some of us just never 'grow out' of finding genocide abhorrent

[-] testfactor@lemmy.world -1 points 1 week ago

Putting words in my mouth man. I still find genocide abhorrent. What I learned was to not make it my entire personality.

You're allowed to enjoy your life. Advocacy is important. Standing up for what you believe in is important. But when you let arguing with randos on the Internet become who you are, you're not making a difference, you're just being an ass. And, in my experience with lemmy.ml, that's what it reminds me of. Being that guy who was trawling the Internet, looking for a debate.

And to be clear, when I was 15/16, the current Israeli situation wasn't in the zeitgeist. I was obnoxious about a completely different set of issues, lol.

Fuck these pathetic incels parasites. Death to Israel.

[-] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

Hell yea brother

[-] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 0 points 1 week ago

I’m all for freeing Palestine, but you shouldn’t call for the death of people.

[-] mochisuki@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

Israel is not a people. It is a colonial government enterprise. So yes calling for the death of that political system is entirely within the bounds of peaceful and polite conversation. You shouldn’t call for the support of a genocidal government by equating it with the people inhabiting the land.

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago

What other deaths have you recently called for?

It’s a perfectly reasonable way to moderate a community.

[-] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

Deaths of racists, deaths of sexists, deaths of homophobes, deaths of transphobes, death of Donald Trump, etc.

What other terrible people have you defended recently?

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 week ago

It’s possible for people to learn and change their minds. If your murder them for thought crimes and opinions, you are the bad guy.

[-] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 week ago

Does that happen before or after they kill your family?

These are not thought crimes, these are literal war crimes and crimes against humanity being carried out.

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago

You are the one who wants to kill millions.

[-] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

To stop them killing millions of innocent people. Do you understand who is the at-fault party here?

You're the one who wants to do nothing to stop zionazism.

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago

The literal Nazis were stopped without killing all of them.

Your bloodlust is completely unhinged.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

Were they stopped, though?

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 week ago

If they don't want to die they can always leave

[-] Grainne@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 week ago

And the Zionists can stop being Zionists if they don’t want to die.

Your Nazi love is unhinged.

[-] mech@feddit.org 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Which commenters or posters on the Fediverse have killed your family?

[-] FranklyIGiveADarn@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 week ago

Oh look a nazi.org user defending vile shit, what a surprise.

[-] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago

Where did they outline that demographic as what they were referring to by saying racists, sexists, etc.?

[-] Samskara@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 week ago

Banned for posting swastika.

You are the problem. Perfectly reasonable way to moderate.

[-] FranklyIGiveADarn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago


Yet this is your DP?

Hmmmmm

[-] vk6flab@lemmy.radio -3 points 1 week ago

Uhm, the whole point of the fediverse is that you can change instance and move on with your life and never be beholden to an admin whom you disagree with.

What makes this particular event any different?
