No surprises there.
Weird how lemmy.world gets a sudden influx of cryptofascists after defederating all the filthy commies, huh?
Isn't it just the overall biggest instance?
Sure, but they got yelled at before, not upvoted the moment they figured out how to get the dogwhistles sneaky enough.
Granted, often by unhinged types, but if Crazy Greg wants to yell at Nazis I'll offer him critical support regardless.
Fascists can't stand up to the combined posting power of hexbear and lemmygrad and that's why they needed to be defederated from .world
I would say .world is more in the infiltration stage of taking over a liberal space rn, but the community is still largely populated by actual liberals-by-default.
The kind where they'll have "democratic socialists" posting butthurt memes about getting banned from here when they know damn well "The commies are literally spreading national socialism" only appeals to people who have heard those words before in passing and therefore think they know what they mean.
After all, the kind of socialist they don't have to genocide is saying something bad about their political opponents, that means it's correct and they're not lying about their own beliefs, right?
