Rules

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

More posts discussing the fallout:

Dbzer0 admin claiming Uyghur genocide is 'overblown and misrepresented'

Dbzer0 admin casually defending Uyghur genocide denial because "libs worse", yikes

Banned from meanwhileongrad for "No db0 allowed".

On Dbzer0, 'harassing mods' is when you criticize the top admin of .ml for responding to a Wiki link with a Lemmy search

Does lemmy.ml own db0? db0 denies the Uyghur genocide, begins to backtrack that maybe there are human rights abuses, and then immediately backs off as soon as lemmy.ml admin, Davel, steps in.

Tankie bar, db0, will remove your comments and ban you if you criticise lemmy.ml admin, Davel, for denying the Uyghur genocide

When the tankie bar, db0, is pushed about communists purging peasants, Davels swoops in with dehumanisation. Also, if you bring up the Holodomor then you're a nazi.

Removed false allegations against goat from a post on db0

An anarchist ~~tankie~~ did a write-up of the constant use of 'degenerate' as an insult specifically in the MoG comm

Another anarchist ~~tankie~~ did a write-up of the situation

Is this the left-wing infighting the memes have forewarned about?

I knew from the beginning that being able to see who votes how on what will cause some shit.

But like @givesomefucks@lemmy.world already said: block that skynet instance and be done with it.

It does seem like an obvious drama factory for people that don't have the proper mentality of laughing at someone for bringing up votes, calling them a loser that needs to touch grass and blocking them so they don't waste any more of your life

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

Its still extremely visible, that does just about nothing, FYI.

I think cm0002, the deeply scratched anti-authoritarian-communist liberal, had the political savviness to stay out of these !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com conversations. He isn’t banned from that community or instance, and he was otherwise active, so I think this was a conscious choice. Let goat & pg take the heat.

I haven't seen any takes from that person to imply they're a fascist. I think there's enough beef going around without throwing more into this bonfire.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah he's just a dick about stealing memes, which is weird, because you can just say you're "seizing the memes" from .ml and they won't mind

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"stealing memes" is not a thing lol.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's my understanding the user posts .ml memes to other communities not to spread the meme per se, but to discourage others from engaging with them on .ml.

The efficacy or righteousness of that is beyond my scope as a passive consumer.

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

He explicitly states that as his goal in reposting lemmy.ml content, and he frequently encourages people & instances to boycott/ban/defederate not only the “tankie triad” (a term that AFAIK I he coined himself), but also the entire Lemmy platform.

And he hangs out in the Nazi bar a lot.
