I’ve seen around 3 occasions of that this week, altho I have never seen anything like it before.
if I remember correctly they were:
- smack talking a mod (FlyingSquid) for saying not to report the same comment twice, when they were different comments, and the report was spam
- someone comparing .world with .ml in politics (as in there was a comment saying "this post will be overrun with .ml people, and then a comment going “but you are from .world”) (Maybe Im part of the problem? I have been called out for being a fascist because I questioned the “puching nazis” theme)
- one more which I can’t remember.
Anyways, what is all that about? Are people really starting to hate on 50% of the lemmy population because of their instance?
Here’s a clue : try posting something in support of Jews or Israel on either .ml or .world, and you’ll see the two user bases are exactly the same type of antisemitic tankie trash, no discernible difference whatever
Israel stands against Jewish values and Jewish identity. Supporting Jews means opposing Israel.
By supporting Israel, you are not supporting Jews. Israel, being a settler colonial ethnostate whose national project requires the conquest and ethnic cleansing of territory, cannot be a safe place for Jewish people.
Associating Jewish people with the genocidal actions of Israel is antisemitic as fuck.
I mean people usually don’t like when you support Nazis. That doesn’t have anything to do with being a tankie.
