.ml is fucking cancer.

[-] Green_Mouse@piefed.social 55 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

They even ban people for saying “Slava Ukraini”? I wonder what rules this breaks... I guess for them, supporting the victims of genocide is supporting the Nazis.

"Everything I don't like breaks rule 1."

[-] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Vibe moderation.

[-] Luci@lemmy.ca 42 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The fuck part of rule 1 did they break? The .ml admins must be fun at parties.

Rule 1 according to .ml sidebar: No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 36 points 2 months ago

"Supporting Ukraine is supporting NAZIS! Only supporting civilians having their hands tied behind their backs and shot in the head by Russian invaders for the crime of being Ukrainian is the True Anti-Bigot Position."

[-] Green_Mouse@piefed.social 24 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Looks like they don't give a shit about rule 1 themselves... very hypocritical.

[-] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 11 points 2 months ago

That's always the rule cited. Tis bigotrous against the enlightened (Eastern European) imperialists.

[-] AMillionNames@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago

Well informed and respectful response? Bigot, out with you! But calling Ukraine "the empire's Nazi regime", totally not racism or bigotry.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 6 points 2 months ago

against russia or ccp, reading between the lines.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago

Russia propaganda is that Ukraine is occupied by Nazis and they liberate them. .ml admin can still be liberal minded if they don't have access to other sources. Not that they are, i don't know if they are.

[-] Lyra_Lycan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

Nationalism is free game?! Rip

[-] bob_lemon@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago

Ukraine is xenophobic against Russian citizens in their country!

[-] BroBot9000@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

What a shit felching Nazi fuck.

[-] AMillionNames@sh.itjust.works 23 points 2 months ago

It's so ridiculous to claim to have a modlog for transparency, then just slap a no-reason number or flat out lie. Kudos to the admins and mods that don't do that.

The real problem is, the main Lemmy developers actively peddle Russian and Chinese propaganda, and they know it. It really de-legitimizes Lemmy as a platform.

[-] TRAHR@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Haven't .ml/devs literally been caught removing content from the modlogs entirely?

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 months ago

liberate

🙄

[-] match@pawb.social 2 points 2 months ago

instance boycotting is weird why not petition your admin to defederate or move to an instance that is

[-] cm0002@lemmy.cafe 26 points 2 months ago

We've been trying, very few of the Lemmy instances defederate from .ml even if many defederate from the rest of the Triad because of support and the devs would take it personally (which I mean, fair, given dessalines behavior that has been documented thus far I wouldn't put it past him at all to refuse to help on things for an instance that had the gall to defederate from his)

So it's either boycott or move to PieFed

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 8 points 2 months ago

i made a piefed social acct just in case, some people moved to piefed world

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

As soon as I'm back on my meds, I'm moving to Piefed, myself.

[-] AMillionNames@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Or mbin.

[-] Rose@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Is that actively supported and developed?

[-] FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago

i think so. kbin was abandoned. mbin is the successor.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Individuals can also just block instances. I've had .ml blocked for a while now.

[-] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 1 points 2 months ago

I never think about .ml unless someone (who isn't from .ml) complains about .ml.

[-] caboose2006@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Man, I've said a lot more in that thread and haven't been banned.

[-] cm0002@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 months ago

They are aware of what goes on here, so I suspect for larger threads they let some things that they can "live with" go so there isn't comment after comment with "Removed by moderator", or you just got lucky and it was missed.

"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"

Welcome to MoG!

Meanwhile On Grad

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!

What is a Tankie?

Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)

Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in unrelated arguments.

Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting or manipulating the post in any way, this includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be permanently banned.

You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
