I'm hearing Lemmy itself, the .ml instance and some others are ran by Tankies that censor criticism of russia and china. What are your thoughts on this?

Looking at lemmy.world/instances, it explicitly federates with lemmygrad.ml

Kinda worrying to me that the two biggest instances link to the biggest tankie instances.

You can just block all lemmygrad's community, and if their users bothering other instance's community, let the mod block them. lemmyworld is free to choose which instances to federate like you are free to block all user/community you dislike. That is the beauty of federation. cheers.

The instance federates with pretty much all other instances as far as I understand.. If you have a problem with that, simply join another instance that blocks instances you don't like. Or better yet, create your own instances with your own rules and block any instance you don't like..

There is no reason to cry and do nothing when the entire point of lemmy is about giving you the power..

You can block subs yourself, right?

I see lemmy.world as the most unrestricted and neutral instance now.

This place federates with a bunch of Nazi instances, strange how you weren't bothered by that 🤔

It's interesting how the tankies and the neocons always immediately run screaming to calling everyone who disagrees with them a pedophile. It's almost like y'all have a lot in common.

It's interesting how the libs are in hysterics over t-t-t-tankies, but are totally fine with anime child porn and Nazis.

Please post proof of nazi's. I see no Nazi's here

I didn't say there are Nazis here. Some of the instances this places federates with are Nazi, such are freespeechextremist (a Mastodon instance), where the first thing I saw was someone using the N and K words. I also didn't mean to say that the person I initially responded to is a pedophile, but I did mean to say that they have screwed up priorities if they'd rather whine about "tankies" than even mention an instance that has "lolicon" in the name.

Everything's federated after any user tries looking at something there, and only gets defederated after the admin adds it to a block list. If the admin's not aware of the noncery, they won't have defederated it yet. If it's not defederated relatively quickly, I imagine most people here will switch to an instance that gets rid of things like that more quickly.

As for why it's not been noticed but the tankies have, it'll be because it's really easy to accidentally run into lemmygrad.ml posts, as they're getting upvoted and commented on faster.

Oh, is that why lemmy.world has such a long list of federated instances? That would explain it. I'll fully admit, I just Ctrl-F'd for lemmygrad on the instance list after noticing that it's not on the blocklist when it's blocked on most other instances.

What's are lolicon rocks, and what differentiates them from regular rocks? 🤔

They are geologically young: under 1 million years old.
