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

        It’s not as if there were not enough assmad mods (and users) who hated seethed over the place already. This was just the reason to get it over with, because “Issrael hecking has the right to flatten terrorist Gaza and anybody who says otherwise is an anti-semite and a tankie.” Thats just the enviroment we live in and mind broken liberals see that as a reasonable position to have these days. Lemmyworld is also somehow as or even more insufferable than reddit in this regard. One just assumes that in the fringes there would be less mainstream and more nuance and willigness to speak up.
