Defederation from Lemmygrad.ml
Defederation from Lemmygrad.ml
Hello World,
Today, after careful consideration and evaluation of recent events, we have decided to defederate from Lemmygrad.
Regrettably, we have observed a significant increase in hate speech and calls to violence originating from the Lemmygrad instance. Due to the severity of the posts and comments, we are not waiting for the next Lemmy update that will allow users to block instances.
At Lemmy.world, we have always strived to foster an inclusive and welcoming user environment. However, recent posts and comments from Lemmygrad have clearly violated our server rules and, more importantly, our core values. We firmly believe that hate speech and incitement of violence have no place in our community, regardless of personal beliefs or affiliations.
As always, we encourage all users to report any content they deem inappropriate or harmful. No matter one's stance in any conflict, Lemmy.world will always take immediate action to remove and ban any posts or comments that incite violence or propagate hatred.
We encourage everyone to continue engaging in discussions within the boundaries of respect and understanding. As we move forward with this decision, we remain committed to providing all community members with a safe and welcoming space. We appreciate your continued support and cooperation in upholding our shared principles.
Thank you,
The Lemmy.World Team

Hexbear next.
They have been defederated on Lemmy World for months: https://lemmy.world/post/2498330
But you are on aussie.zone so they might still be federated and will explain why you see their posts and communities.
Still federated with dbzer0 even though dbzer0 has a strict anti-tankie rule.
I think it is because the Lemmygrad crowd behaves better on dbzer0 than on LW.
No grad is blocked over here but not hexbear. The reasoning is because the admin at db0 "doesn't think they are actually tankies" but supposedly "will ban them if a need arises."
I think they are tankies and as such the need has a-risen, but I'm not the boss around here and users don't own the means of instance blockage, so.
hexbear previously, actually. lemmy dot world defederated from them quite a while ago.
i cant even understand what they talk about on that instance. I see arguments about liberals, and conservatives but everything they say about these groups makes no sense at all, and I dont know anyone that holds positions or values.
After the chapo subs got kicked from Reddit, they went over to hexbear and....the few years they spent in that isolation bubble haven't been great, it seems. A little too extremist for my tastes. Like I'm here to waste time and chill, not have academic arguments about why Stalin was actually great or whatever the fuck.
Like I'm a leftist, but fuck. I ended up just blocking the instance because I got tired of being shit on for any particular seemingly innocuous comment.
