Tldr lemmy mods apologising for fash on lemmy and the mods/admins/users defending the bigot as they recruit others to their dogshit instance.
Oh also one user calling lgbtq+ user a pedophile pushing that same vile rhetoric used by fascists to dehumanised lgbtq+ people and they didn’t get banned immediately. So criticalresist gets banned for telling users to fuck off but using dehumanising homophobia to bully a Comrade is a-ok by lemmy mod standards.
Leftist social media? What a laugh. They stand for nothing and fall for everything.
Update: the wolfballs admin seems to have fled while deleting their comments and the abjectly homophobic comment by another user was removed but further comments continuing the bs idea that a user here is a groomer because she is part of the lgbtq+ community persist further legitimising that assumption that the two (lgbtq+ and noncing) are somehow linked.
Do better lemmy.
I tried and they rejected me purely because I was coming from lemmygrad (as I was pretty open about it using a similar user name) under some bs justification for “lack of information”.
Honestly it just seems like a shithole of reactionary idiocy and it would just annoy me so I’m kinda glad I didn’t in the end.
I made my account on Lemmy many months ago and would always browse all, but recently I’ve been browsing exclusively lemmygrad. Lemmy is hardly better than my old reddit homepage. Just slightly less overt bigotry.
I’m getting a “we think we are better than reddit” vibe from lemmy which is ironic given what I’ve seen.
