I’ve joined Lemmy.ml. Someone sent me a link to a video posted on Feddit.nl - I thought I could log in and upvote/comment using my Lemmy.ml credentials. Wrong!
Why is this? Sorry for my ignorance, I’m relatively new to the fediverse. But I thought that they were all federated so you can interact with all instances??!
When instances become instruments of propaganda for Putin/Xi/Kim and ban people who expose such propaganda, they fully deserve to be blocked. They’ve become instruments of the enemies of civil society.
It’s the moderation practices of those instances that put them in the corner of “sectarian shit”. The rest of us don’t need to tolerate such toxicity.
But when instances become instruments of propaganda for NATO/US/EU and ban people who expose such propaganda, that’s fine.
I tolerate the toxicity of .world and other liberal instances, but maybe I shouldn’t. Maybe this is self harm. Maybe I should just join lemmygrad so I never have to get attacked again for disagreeing with the liberal consensus. I’d probably hit myself less.
