I for one am in favor. I strongly dislike them and the hexbears. They talk all kinds of shit about being open to arguing and dunking on libs, they'll brigade other instances and communities, but ban you for having a different opinion in their instance. It's wild.

Yup. Got banned for telling an admin to stop throating putin's cock. Admittedly fairly charged language, but fucking accurate.
Fun fact they immediately whatabout'd the US working with nazis. Like, shit fam we can both agree that's bad, why the fuck do you only have a problem when I criticize you for licking authoritarian boots?
For real. Meanwhile they always seem to forget the thousands of Nazi scientists hired by the USSR after WW2. What coincidence π€ͺ
Edit:
I got banned from hexbear for saying something like it's "based that for free Biden's admin got the IMF to loan Pakistan money at the cost of sending weapons to Ukraine to fight our enemies for free."
I got banned from Lemmygrad for pointing out that China is a fasco-capitalst state that manipulates its currency to keep the party members rich and factory workers poor, which doesn't feel very socialist to me.
I wish getting banned by them would lead to me not seeing their posts, I'd run a ban% speed run in a heartbeat if it did.
Almost like a big bunch of trolls who were never interested in discussing shit.
Proper instance blocking needs to show up. Like... yesterday would be good.
The situation in the Middle East is very nuanced people with serious legitimate grievances on every side. Getting multiple view points we disagree with is healthy.
This issue is very emotional for a lot of people. As a community we're going to have to give some leeway to people reacting emotionally, before we de-federate.
You're absolutely correct, the thing I take issue with is no matter how nuanced the issue is, they are members of lemmygrad.ml cheering for the deaths of innocent civilians.
No matter what the situation is, that's really not ok and that's why the user was making the ask.
I just dislike that their collective emotional reaction always seems perfectly calculated to be to the benefit of the CCP or Russia, no matter the topic.
They're. Tankies.
This isn't the only issue they have genuinely brain damage level takes on.
Donβt know, but it did come across as a very one sided perspective.
It definitely did, but it didn't seem all that different from similar requests in the past. My experience has been that people will typically either agree or disagree and lay out reasons why.
