    This is reddit all over again. Who are the mods over there?

      Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s the same State Department bots off Reddit tbh. I’m expecting to wind up banned from there within the month based on how little I’m willing to coddle those settlers’ feelings when I’m talkin my shit-- you can’t expect logic or reason to work on a nazi collaborator, after all.

      .world ended up becoming the big general purpose instance that’s the defacto reddit alternative. If the feds are gonna try to weasel into a lemmy instance’s admin team, its the most obvious instance to target.

      The question is, once they reddit all over .world and ruin it, what website will they turn to as the reddit alternative alternative?

      Ukrainian anticommunists want everybody to believe that the Soviet era was the worst period in all of history and that therefore there is no such thing as a communist Ukrainian. The moderators might have adopted that misconception and assumed that everybody else is just as naïve as they are.

      Oh how I wish common sense was as common as it seems… Not for your generic liberals I guess…

        I think there is more to this than just that. Lenins2ndCat is well known for being quite patient and very good at reaching out to libs to educate them. They’re easily a threat to the status quo on world news, as they can successfully educate people and get them to change their mind.

    I mean, that was just plain wrong.

    It is “Sieg Heil” not “Zieg Heil”.

    I see that even bothsiding the war, quoting Israeli source and displaying nuance didn’t saved them from the righteous wrath of scratched liberal 😔

    Hell, displaying nuance is exactly what brings the reddit logo scratchwrath

    Note what was not removed (aimed at 2ndcat):

    All the World News communities I have seen (minus ours) seem to be desperate to be exactly like /r/worldnews , and that is obviously not a good thing. I see all the same talking points and memes propagating around there. Makes sense, as I imagine that is exactly where their recent influx of users migrated from.

    well, you can’t expect liberals to pay attention to historical instances of fascism. 🙄
