- No server operator needs to federate with you.
- No server operator needs to tolerate things they don’t want on their instance.
- No user of an instance needs to personally curate their own extensive never ending blocklist of users and channels they don’t want to see.
Quit your pseudo-intellectual whining and choose what instance(s) work for you. If you think regularly interacting with shit content somehow helps you stay out of an echo chamber then go ahead and make a second account on those garbage instances full of hateful people. Then you can read both the decent servers and the trash ones and be the fedora wearing ackshually right fair and balanced uber nerd you always wanted to be.
Edit: The huge number of upvotes on this post compared to the low numbers on the whiney imposers’ posts is proof of exactly where this community places its priorities.
People defederate from lemmygrad because it’s a tankie instance, not because it’s leftist.
Tankies are disliked because they uncritically rally around any country that rejects/has sway against Western influence, even if that country does bad shit.
That’s not “people”, it’s liberals who have been brainwashed by american propaganda, most importantly the propaganda that tells you there is no propaganda in america.
