Defederation from Lemmygrad.ml - Lemmy.world
lemmy.worldHello World, Today, after careful consideration and evaluation of recent events,
we have decided to defederate from Lemmygrad [https://lemmygrad.ml].
Regrettably, we have observed a significant increase in hate speech and calls to
violence originating from the Lemmygrad instance. Due to the severity of the
posts and comments, we are not waiting for the next Lemmy update that will allow
users to block instances. At Lemmy.world, we have always strived to foster an
inclusive and welcoming user environment. However, recent posts and comments
from Lemmygrad have clearly violated our server rules and, more importantly, our
core values. We firmly believe that hate speech and incitement of violence have
no place in our community, regardless of personal beliefs or affiliations. As
always, we encourage all users to report any content they deem inappropriate or
harmful. No matter one’s stance in any conflict, Lemmy.world will always take
immediate action to remove and ban any posts or comments that incite violence or
propagate hatred. We encourage everyone to continue engaging in discussions
within the boundaries of respect and understanding. As we move forward with this
decision, we remain committed to providing all community members with a safe and
welcoming space. We appreciate your continued support and cooperation in
upholding our shared principles. Thank you, The Lemmy.World Team
As someone whose main instance is .world, I kinda expected this was coming ever since Hexbear got insta-defederated but I’m still disappointed. Anyway, that’s why I signed up here.
That said, I noticed a massive disconnect between the ridiculous claims people make about ther interactions with Lemmygrad users and my own experience. They really will consider themselves as the most reasonable progressives ever and then claim harassment when their lib bullshit is called out.
Glad to have you!
Welcome over! It is legitimately baffling to see the things people make up.
No kidding. I binged the entire thread and nowhere in there do they provide any concrete proof of the “”“hate speech”“” they’re claiming, not even the admin. And it’s not like they’d rather avoid coming here and taking screenshots because they did screenshot this one post. But the people asking for example get hit with a “iT’s sO oBvIoUs”, “iF yOu wEnT tO LeMmYgRaD aNd dIdN’t sEe ThE pRoBlEm, yOu ShOuLd StAy ThErE 🤪”.
But hey, I did see people claiming that they saw Lemmygrad users justifying the indigenous genocide by the US (!) and calling the working class “subhuman trash” (!!). Of course, no links or screenshots provided despite tht fact that other commenters ask for them.
Some commenters in the thread say that this might be politically motivated and, I mean, it obviously is, but they were downvoted to oblivion lmao
What a bunch of sad losers lol. Here I am waiting for Lemmy to implement actual account migration to move my memes/general purpose account out of there.
