I’ve not heard of it before but a problematic lemmy user who got banned multiple times for sinophobia and other bigotry/harassment has became a mod of a Political Compass Memes sub on there (they haven’t it’s a lemmy thing, my bad) and the posts on that sub are already rolling out the sinophobia.

This isn’t meant to be a brigade against one user or platform, it’s more I’m shocked that sub has being allowed given the abject shit takes and bigotry that meme sub reddit generates and I find that concern tracks when past problematic users are being made mods for it.

Or is that just another lemmy instance? Ngl it all gets a bit confusing for me trapped here on lemmygrad.

Edit: I think it’s a lemmy.perthchat sub not a beehaw sub, apologies for any confusion. Still PCM is a disgrace regardless and the fact there’s one connected to lemmy now is a bit 🤮

    That’s why Lemmy being open-source and distributed is so nice. Lemmygrad is not part of lemmy.ml or any other instance. It is hosted separately, and only federates (connects) to other lemmy instances. If at any point, things get out of hand, we can always defederate from other instances and become completely separate, with no fascists or libs.
