It was banned on Reddit because it is racist, hatefull and spread Conspiracies.

In my new community I expect the exclution of racist communities. It is easy now with defederation. Nazis can do whatever they want on their instances, but the instances I want to be part of should not amplify their shit and flush it into our timelines.

The instance-admin of !thedonald@sh.itjust.works did not reply to my message. Big instances seem not to defederate with them.

The new TD may not be a success, the point is not to give Nazis a platform like it is happening now. Fans of TD are racists.

Where are the instances that show face against racism?

edit: to contact the admins: @donut @TheDude @smorks

Currently blocking everyone that downvotes this post, wish me luck!

Thanks for doing me the favor. Since I will get blocked shortly let me just say before I go, Donald Trump is the biggest piece of shit ever elected. He is a national embarrassment and you all look like fucking sheep following him as he steals your money and makes fun of you! Peace out dumb asses!

Careful, some people might be downvoting because they don't want the community to get attention

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

True, and I thought of that as well, but I'll just have to take the chance that 1 of those 16 people is like you said because I don't want to have anything to do with the other 15

Your numbers may be backwards though, that group of people aren't really early adopters

Plus they've been banned for a while and have a few platforms of their own by now

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social -2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Well anyone who doesn't support that community should either upvote the post or not vote at all I don't care if this post gives that community attention, let the users that support Trump go over there so that we know where they are. Makes it easier to get rid of all of them at once.

I just want to be proactive, so if my blockhammer hits someone who is not in favor of that community thats their problem but really I am not a power user so neither of us would miss out on anything anyways.

Some of us find defederating worse than the Donald. Block the community and move on.

Allowing the community to exist is not the same as supporting what it stands for.

A lot of people including myself, do not really care about Donald Trump (not from USA), but just supports free speech in general.

If you don't care about Trump you wouldn't miss that community anyways. The Venn diagram between apathy and support might as well be a dot in a circle. Free speech should have limits tolerating intolerance is stupid and has been proven time and time again, it's sad that people just forget history. I'm from Germany and I still do not support the regressive party of the USA.

I never noticed it being banned as I never cared about it. People who noticed are people who interacted with them, either supporting it or going there to get offended. But one of the reasons leaving reddit is censorship of different opinions, I don't want the same to happen here.

I saw plenty of leftist being intolerant, but noone thought about censoring them. Being from a country that had great casualties due to nazi invasions, I am careful to who I am calling a nazi. Leftist calling everyone they disagree with a nazi, is trivializing how horrible those people really were.

Took me a while :-)

[–] density@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Where is that info available?

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social -2 points 1 year ago

If you're on kbin hover over "more" below your comment, click activity and then look at "reduces" which are the downvotes. I'm unsure how to do it on lemmy though I will have to look.

Edit: same works on posts (all posts not just yours)
