        A weird “anarchist” instance that bans people if they down vote or say negative things about AI or the blahaj admin for some reason. I think db0 made a blahaj admin a db0 admin or something, there’s a weird cross over.

        But it’s what you expect when an “anarchist” names their entire instance their own username.

          not disagreeing that some of the hot takes are pretty out there… but I try to feed my inner lefty from as many sources as possible and a non-zero number of posts lead to interesting articles, regardless of the sometimes suspect commentary.

            They can make all those takes in civilized places…

            Like, if you run into mods you don’t like: block their communities.

            You run into heavy handed admins that enforce stupid rules across all their communities, you just block every community on their instance at once instead of one at a time.

            This is especially helpful for people who browse /all because those problematic instances tend to be full of people who want to mod 27 different communities and won’t stop making new ones.

            It comes off as spam to a lot of people, which is why an instance block is valuable. It just stops people from accidentally going somewhere on the fediverse that they don’t want to fuck with.

        An average hard-line lefty instance that’s pretending to be Anarchist, except that they don’t actually follow Anarchist ideals and the admins decide what kind of Anarchism is “real Anarchism”. The only flavor difference from most (Lefty) instances is that they welcome AI generated stuff, which is overwhelmingly hated on Lemmy.

        My favorite part is how their own Golden Rules conflict with their own Code of Conduct, not to mention their admins blatantly do not follow either. It’s hardly surprising you have a lot of them blocked.

          It’s not the leftism it’s the unapologetic felatio to your tankie friends. At least ml is honest about who they are. You lot pretend to be anarchists but cream your pants for State sponsored authoritarianism as long as it comes out of China, Iran, Cuba, Russia or one of the other triad countries.
