Some communities there are literally calling for the annihilation of Ukraine

edit: Since people are either willfully or otherwose are missing my point, this is a pro-russia, pro-fascist hate group, therefore we shouldn’t give them the platform to spread their shit. this is not about me seeing their community or then causing issues accross other communities, it’s about de-platforming fascists.

    The better question is why can’t you moderate yourself and block what you don’t want to see? Although with the above screenshot it’s like you’re looking for it.

      it showed up on my feed against my will and I dislike spreading fascism and genocide apologism.

      a better question is, why are you okay with it?

        How this was shown to you against your will? You had blocked it and it was shown anyway? How would lemmy know what’s every users will?

          so what does it help if I block it? I can block it out, that doesn’t solve anything, it will still be there.

                  I mean, I have no idea why you are arguing in the first place, you are basically arguing against the de-platforming of fascists.

                    You were able to discern all that from me clarifying that they’d still exist even if your instance members didn’t see them?

            Some of their stuff finally hit my feed. I’ve blocked them on my instance. I take what I said back.

            I mean, even if programming.dev defederates with it, it’ll still be there…
