I’d describe myself as politically “center-left” and I go on the streets against the far-right in my country… Not “left” enough for the lemmy community hexbear(.)net, I guess, which banned me for “facism”.

“Advertisement”: Go to hexbear(.)net if you want to be able to say “Death to Israel” or “The situation in Gaza is like the holocaust” without getting banned. No, you even get a lot of likes and no one will say anything against that. No one will share arguments against yours. Why? Because those people will instead get banned.

At least, I have an explanation now… There is no one arguing against what is posted there, because everyone who tries, is getting banned.

    They literally have a conservative /c run by a pedophile who the admin protects.

      Oh shit I’ve missed the meta about that. Very worrisome and that must be handled. It still doesn’t implicate the users of anything.

      Edit: I browsed https://lemm.ee/c/meta for the past 9 months and couldn’t see a thread about that. I’d appreciate a link to be able to report such nefarious communities.

      Edit 2: If a user were to look for an general instance not associated with assholery, fast performance and timely updates, federating well and a growing user base so it hopefully doesn’t disappear one day, any hints where to look? Filtering https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list to ver 19.3. sorted by uptime and at least 100 users still gives over 70 options and many seem to be focused on niches, geographical areas or certain languages.

      You’re also commenting from an instance known for conservative & reactionary “management”, but I don’t think anybody should associate you with them just from a click on an instance home page.

        Yeah i’ve had my issues with how ml moderates from time to time, i’ve considered jumping ship but I prefer being on the ‘omni-lemmy’ instance. One thing keeping me here is mostly that while the moderation does tend to suck at times (biasing towards not doing enough) they’re still pretty competent in most cases and especially not outright abusive like they are on other instances. I once got a warning from the admins for telling a pedophile (they were quick to give them a perma) to jump into a woodchipper and that’s it, I can admit that was something they had to take care of even though I 10,000% meant it, because that can get them into legal trouble.

        For what it’s worth I put ee above a lot of the problem instances. Every .de instance, dbzero (.de in all but name), sh.itfullof.nazis for example.
