God I fucking hope not. There are plenty of other servers that take this stance that you can sign up on. Don't try to change this instance when there's a million out there that already do what you're looking for
Sounds like the admins removed that community, so I guess this instance is just another one of the millions 😄 Best of luck to you in your search for a new instance!
Allows federating with them, not allowing it to be posted on their server.
From the very brief statement admins made about the removal, it sounds like those users might have been creating multiple accounts and manipulating the platform more than once. I never saw any comments from admins on their stance towards right wing disinformation communities.
You...you want to be on a server that allows the intentional dissemination of harmful disinformation? There are lots of instances that allow that for you to sign up on.
Yes, and that's why I signed up for it. Feel free to not join lol. I don't want to defederate from anyone (except illegal instances), so I want access even to the porn ones. Most ban these so I don't want them to decide what I see.
Remember, this is a global general-purpose instance with a wide variety of backgrounds and worldviews.
With that in mind, I think I should have the choice to see information if I want to—even if someone else determines that it is incorrect, right?
From my perspective, you can learn extremely valuable things from the corrupt (the horrific history of my country for example) just as much as the good. Removing information like this effectively removes my ability to see the full picture. By definition, this is censorship. It is removing content based on someone’s opinion of the content itself.
If your going to tell me that your definition of disinformation is 100% truth, I’d love to hear how you got to that conclusion.
The amount of idiots sitting here defending right wing propaganda trolls is fucking incredible. No one wants them, and they ruin everything they come in contact with, ban them. It's not the end of the world, and if they wanna spread their bullshit let them pay for their own server to host it on. ThE fAr LeFt nEoLiBeRaL eLiTe ArE SiLeNcInG uS. Get real, no one buys your bullshit, and no one wants to pretend to have a conversation with you
They suggested to me that I block their community but I will not because that is how you get a cesspit of an instance
Who cares? Just block it and carry on as normal. What other people do doesn't effect your enjoyment of lemmy at all.
