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

    So which instance is going to be the next one to be designated the tankie instance?

        Wow. Didn’t think I’d get an admission that the intent is to find another instance to designate as the tankie instance.

          My God are you incapable of using your brain?

            You’re not disagreeing with my premise, just insulting me because I noticed.

              You didn’t have a premise, and you didn’t actually read my first comment before getting caught up in your false sense of winning an argument you didn’t bother understanding. Thats why I mocked and insulted you.

                Cool. Have fun selecting the next instance to designate as the tankie instance.

                  It won’t be that hard. When another instance promotes tankie propaganda, it’s the tankie instance. Dialectics really rots the brain, comrade.

                    When another instance promotes tankie propaganda, it’s the tankie instance.

                    When we’ve decided on what the leftmost remaining instance is, we’ll know which one to call the tankie instance and say it has been promoting tankie propaganda.

                    I see a lot more whining about tankies than I see actual tankies.

          Reading is a skill you never developed, isn’t it?

            You get so angry when people point out the obvious.

                Really, the best you got is “hurr durr, uMad brah”?

                What else is there to be said in the face of hostility and abuse?

                    I didn’t defend anyone. But holy shit, this is really fucking toxic.
