Why are peole hating on .world?
Why are peole hating on .world?
I've seen around 3 occasions of that this week, altho I have never seen anything like it before.
if I remember correctly they were:
- smack talking a mod (FlyingSquid) for saying not to report the same comment twice, when they were different comments, and the report was spam
- someone comparing .world with .ml in politics (as in there was a comment saying "this post will be overrun with .ml people, and then a comment going "but you are from .world") (Maybe Im part of the problem? I have been called out for being a fascist because I questioned the "puching nazis" theme)
- one more which I can't remember.
Anyways, what is all that about? Are people really starting to hate on 50% of the lemmy population because of their instance?
You're viewing a single thread.
I usually beef with sh.it.just.works users because by far I've met the most wrong takes there, especially in WPT, and it's quite funny considering the instance name conveys a sort of desperation in not being able to get Lemmy to work, which just makes it seem like it's an instance for the less intellectualy gifted of us, but it's all in good fun really. Some communities there are also quite nice.
I'm pretty aligned with hexbears/MLs but their Russia simping is too much, whether it's critical support or trying to get a reaction out of folks to post the pig it just feels like a nazi bar type situation.
Ironically db0 and slrpnk feel far more legit to me as an anarchist though neither are explicitly anarchist or based around being leftist in any other way.
Blahaj.zone banned me for transphobia on my first post I think. Or one of the communities did. No idea what I said there but I totally get them not messing around with bans.
World is just the largest instance, so naturally has the most trolls, spam, dodgy mods with weird rules and so on and so forth.
That's the beauty of the fediverse though, if they ever became a real problem for me I'd just block em all. I kind of love this instance culture. Makes the place feel more human than the cold masto bullshit.
Lemmy.dbzer0.com is literally anarchist though. It's run by anarchists and has an anarchist coc. It's just not only for anarchists.
Woops. I fowgot >.<
My wrong take of sh.it.just.works’s name is that it’s for people who neither care nor know how the fediverse works or what it even is - people who just want to consume and occasionally randomly interact.
Hey, I primarily consume and very randomly interact!
Thanks for taking your time to interact here. I appreciate it. Enjoy your scrolling…
hello fellow millenial-feels anarchist, what's WPT?
personally i only beef with hexbear. justworks seems about the same as world
Justworks has some dedicated anti-leftism communities. Essentially folks dedicated to having a problem with Lemmy existing as long as it is made and maintained by communists.
Which communities?
MeanwhileOnGrad is a 'just making lists' community. The quality and credibility is closer to ToiletPaperUSA for the most part since they had users misrepresenting interactions for a while. Dunno if that's still the case but it has been back with a vengeance the last month or so.
Shitting on tankies is pro leftism though. Tankies are not leftists, they are fascists with a bad paint job. Enumerating how their ideals diverge from modern leftist philosophy is both common sense and good praxis.
I've yet to see someone actually mean anything other than "Marxist" when they describe what a tankie is, it's similar to the word "woke." It's nebulous and ill-defined, so now it just means "Marxist," and thus is a left-punching term.
Hello,
This might not be the best place of all, but what do you think about this example of instance-level banning for pointing out removal of comments critical to the CCP?

It's mostly that behavior I have in mind when I think about "tankies"
The best place to have that convo certainly isn't a .world thread. The least spicy way of putting it is that Marxists defend AES.
It might be if there was much effort to establish any tankie ideal beyond a user being registered on .ml. It's a lot of 'so you hate waffles' level of reaction and discourse unfortunately.
Having a problem with ML communist (communities) is not the same as having a problem with Lemmy
Hey there! WPT is WhitePeopleTwitter. Yeah you're right it's not too different from world really. I think my experience is just more happenstance haha
