browsing through All has so much pro-fascist posts coming from lemmygrad that it drowns out all the other instances. I’m surprised they’re even federated by default but we should have an option to block instances from All if lemmy is deadset on federating with them just because they are fascists with a red and yellow flag…

(before the Tankies start posting about how they aren’t pro-fascism “Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy” which all describe the Z movement in Russia they gleefully support in multiple posts)

    The views on lemmygrad are very much outside the general acceptable norms for the English speaking internet.

    Sorry, what? Why should that matter?

    Even if you agree with their views, you must admit that it is very off putting for most people who come to Lemmy.ml.

    We target a specific niche. You’re entirely free to use an instance that better suits your views, and introduce other instances to your friends that better suit their views.

    Have no default instance.

    There is already no default instance. Lemmy.ml has a lot of users, but that’s it. We have been explicitly saying that it’s not the default instance for a while now.
