What’s with all the downvotes?

Saw a few threads get blasted, and a de-federation post - did I miss the drama?

        Fair but this whole defederate from every group someone doesn’t like is getting tiring.

        I agree. Since I don’t like lemmygrad, I just block their communities. That’s a tool built into Lemmy to do exactly that. Problem solved. Everyone whining at this point wants to foment drama and control the experience for everyone. That kind of authoritarianism doesn’t belong here. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

          Is there a way yet to block an entire instance’s posts, or is that beyond what you can do as a user?

            I have been wondering the same since the block function in the web version don’t seem to do anything.

          I have absolutely no interest in dealing with people who think it’s okay for site moderators to remove any criticism of China because of “orientalism”

          I’m actually of two minds on this one

          to give them the benefit of the doubt, a lot of “criticism” of China often boils down to sinophobia and a lot of Western internet users do not seem to be able to tell the difference

            You know what I was going to argue against Mill’s On Liberty and its bases for this idea but I really see no point in it. You have a nice day.
