Imagine my surprise reading this on the LA Times this morning (emphasis mine):

“I would not acknowledge reproduction as a human right, but instead as a form of rape,” IndictEvolution wrote on Lemmy.World in July 2023. “I am also not bothered by infanticide as long as it is done humanely...”

Here is an archive of the article.

Here is his account.

It looks like he only stayed on Lemmy for about a month, most likely a temporary Reddit exile with the earliest exodus on June 2023. The article mentions threads on Reddit but doesn't provide any quotes from there. User IndictEvolution on Reddit deleted their account, and the article makes it sound like they are referring to a different username that they don't specify.

Lemmy.world? The instance of misanthropic baby killing terrorists?

[-] PanArab@lemmy.ml 15 points 3 hours ago

It is not called stormfront.world for nothing

[-] Alsephina@lemmy.ml 28 points 7 hours ago

Least fascist lemmy.world user 💀

[-] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I think I am a world user, it was just the top of a drop down menu when I created my lemmy. God damn it.

In that same period, Bartkus’ rhetoric on alternative social media sites was dark.

I'm just proud they know we exist.

[-] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 11 hours ago

Of course he was a .worlder lmao. That instance is really never beating the allegations.

[-] daggermoon@lemmy.world 7 points 4 hours ago

People fighting over instances is fucking stupid.

[-] Grapho@lemmy.ml 11 points 4 hours ago

Not really tho. Some instances talk a big game about their cOnCeRnS when defederating from the explicitly leftist instances but then let fascists of every ilk say the wildest shit as long as it's directed to whomever is the villain of the month for libs.

Holy shit the jokes just write themselves. It'll be amazing if .world doesn't try to censor this.

Man I am just glad I never made an account there.

[-] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Where should I go?? I thought .ml was bad

[-] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago

If you want my personal opinion, it depends on how you want lemmy.

.ml is held by Marxist-Leninists. Most users there aren't, but if you care about that, its either for you or aren't for you.

.world is held by centrist liberals. Most users don't care about that, but if it matters to you, there ya go.

My instance is for anarchists. There's ones for queer people. Or people who speak German. Or Italian. Or French. Some are made for being NSFW, some are made to shitpost, some are isolated by choice or massively de-federated.

But most instances don't care who you are or why you're on it, just don't break the rules.

So far lemmy.cafe lemmy.zip sopuli.xyz all seem fine, I don't recall a constant issue with the userbase.

[-] Grapho@lemmy.ml 10 points 6 hours ago

Truly the /pol/ of the fediverse

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 9 points 8 hours ago

I signed up for it when leaving reddit just because it was the biggest, what’s wrong with .world?

[-] Sagittarii@lemm.ee 14 points 7 hours ago

...That it's no better than reddit and doesn't ban right wingers? Like that IndictEvolution account is still up lmfao

[-] Alsephina@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 hours ago

So is the !antinatalism@lemmy.world community he was a mod of

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 3 points 6 hours ago

So what? I don't think we need to worry about his future posts.

[-] Grapho@lemmy.ml 6 points 4 hours ago

Spouting blatantly ecofascist rhetoric should have had him banned and his comments removed. Instead the community he modded is still up and still posting ecofascist shit with zero pushback from admins.

[-] Nojustice@lemmy.ml 10 points 9 hours ago

Truly the cesspit of Lemmy

[-] shiroininja@lemmy.world 28 points 11 hours ago

Oh fuck they’re going to call us all extremists

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 65 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

The next terrorist to come from lemmy better not be another edgy fash loser. Do better.

Implying any of us go outside

I've finally got my ultra minimalist system set up and I am going to bask in it's soothing glow.

[-] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 18 points 11 hours ago

I'm unaware of this stereotype.

lmao, the only mod action on his account was removing him as the mod of !antinatalism@lemmy.world three days ago, after he was already dead.

Which was the day after the bombing, FBI must have been up LW’s ass pretty quick.

[-] Sagittarii@lemm.ee 7 points 7 hours ago

LW still not banning that comm is disgusting
