      Bit of a tangent, but this pains me every time I read this in threads.

      I wanted to join Lemmy after the Reddit exodus, found out that ml was “the main one” made by the devs and joined it. Last time I carefully tried to pick an instance was Mastodon, and I hardly ever found any content. Decided to check back in the other day, and every account except for the admin’s (like less than 50) was removed for inactivity.

      I’m not some far-right or Russian troll, but because most of them are on that instance everyone on it gets this reputation.

      Signed, European who’s afraid that the far-right movement on his continent will turn into an ultra-far-right turbo-movement now

        If your “gotcha” is you prefer the genocide to get worse to “teach people a lesson”, you need to do some introspection as well.

            If it’s any consolation you and everyone else are likely to get a firsthand lesson in it in the near future.

            Now EVERYONE is fucked. Congrats!

                You have played a role today, in the signing of Palestine’s death warrant. Congratulations, my kin will remember what you’ve done to us for the sake of using our dead for your cynical abandonment of your post defending against our greatest enemies.

            No, I heard your gotcha. But the reality is standing to the side telling people “I told you so” is just sticking your head in the sand. You are enabling a worse genocide just for the sake of moral masturbation.

            You might as well tell the people feeding the homeless they are “accepting homelessness” as well. Amounts to the same bullshit logic.

            But when Trump enables a full scale genocide, you can pay yourself on the back and say “I had nothing to do with that”.

            Nah bro. That is not what you said. You are not against genocide. You support it with a troll face.
