This instance has defederated from hexbear.net for violating our rules against propaganda as outlined in our Terms of Service. If you are unfamiliar, federation means two servers sync and host each other's content. Defederation stops us from syncing their content to our server.
I've seen plenty of stuff over there saying if you're against Russia and their social engineering being used against the US, it's basically the same as being an antisemite.
expect vague answers or examples of individual clueless tankies used to justify the bans of entire instances at best.
defederating & banning from tankies is popular on the lemmyverse and they're making the decision of whom you can & can't talk to on your behalf; whether or not you asked them for it.
if you care about your agency on this social media platform; try switching or joining another instance that treats you like an adult that can make your own decisions.
pick one that doesn't defederate and their attempts to decide on your behalf will become self defeating and you'll still be able to participate here.
This is a bad take. Server admins have the final say on who they federate with. I prefer to be on an instance that bans tankies
and other poorly moderated instances. Heck, I support defederating with lemmy.ml because it's users seem to be confused about what freedom is.
