I love my ultra niche drama. Good on them though

.ml should follow suit, add .world as well.

Watch as all the people complaining about .ml in .ml communities freak out about actually not having to hear from us tankie authoritarian Chinese Russian bots again.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 20 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Anarchists giving the boot to Liberals on foreign policy wasn't on my bingo card. Lefist unity rise up

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 12 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Counting down the days until db0 joins the tankie triad muehehehe

Tankie Tetrad!

(Why was this not my first thought!?)

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I cannot wait to see how the shit instance takes that

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 2 points 14 hours ago

As well as one would expect.

[–] tronrando88@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That made absolutely no sense to my brain lol.

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

So, I'm a tankie user from Hexbear. db0 and hexbear are not federated because, to db0, tankies in hexbear are synonym with redfash and nazbol, and to hexbear, db0 are libs. Db0 democratically choosing to defed from feddit is something that positively surprised me and I wholeheartedly support.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

hex and dbzer0 are federated.

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Huh, whaddyaknow, I thought not

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 hours ago

Yep, along with anarchist.nexus, the PieFed version. dbzer0 is defederated from Grad.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 6 points 15 hours ago

based as fuck

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 54 points 1 day ago (1 children)

An excellent decision by the dbzer0 team.

[–] itsaphoque@moist.catsweat.com 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's important to note that the decision comes from the users. What started as blocking some communities morphed into Defederation, as requested by a strong majority. There's good folks on Dbzer0 😊

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yep, I'm aware that dbzer0 has vote-based defederation/re-federation, similar to Hexbear! By "team" I meant those that facilitated and voted 👍

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I salute their efforts towards whole-process democracy.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A very Chinese era for dbzer0.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Anarchism with Chinese characteristics.

Pre-Marxist

This is how I introduce all my anarchist comrades.

I've bet money on PieFed being a CIA op.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 43 points 1 day ago (2 children)

They got so lazy, it has Fed right in the name

[–] teagrrl@lemmy.ml 2 points 16 hours ago

i'm 💀 nice one

[–] gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago

I wanted to do a joke about that but couldn't think of any, you won. :(

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 19 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't be surprised, but I'll judge them for what I know they are: a Zionist-welcoming instance.

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They would've gotten a better developer on it and more of them.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 15 hours ago

Nah that would have made it too obvious

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm not seeing any malding... Oh right

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 16 points 1 day ago

Hehehe NGL I love seeing the zios mald, that's one of the reasons why I made this alt

[–] Shatur@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Did they defederate from PieFed as well?

Edits: looks like it's only about Feddit: https://lemmy.ml/post/42987909

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, you're right, but piefed users are also malding in the original post.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 14 hours ago

There's even users saying things piefed brags as features are just simple bot prevention methods... Cough cough attitude and reputation (social credit score)

[–] booty@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Now if only they'd get rid of neonazis they'd be cool.

[–] Riverside@reddthat.com 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Seen my fair share of anticommunist libs in db0, but I couldn't point to any examples of overt neonaziism. Can you elaborate?

[–] booty@hexbear.net 19 points 1 day ago (3 children)

TL;DR: There's a mod on their instance, @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com. The mod in question says, "all 27 million Soviet citizens killed by the nazis deserved it." This was 9 months after having been educated on the fact that that number includes many civilian holocaust victims. The server owner, db0, thinks these are cool views to express and not indicative of nazism. The server owner got very mad that we called for this nazi to be banned, and pretended we were making this all up.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 4 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Looks like their account is no longer active

The link in their profile to their new account doesn't seem to work

[–] booty@hexbear.net 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

He moved to anarchist.nexus first (@_cryptagion@anarchist.nexus ) where he's still a mod on db0's instance. Idk what his piefed account is that he's apparently moved to.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

It's cause they moved to the piefed instead of db0.

[–] Liketearsinrain@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 hours ago

I am starting to like piefed

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not to defend cryptagion, but for added context, his claim is that he thought those were just Red Army deaths. Using this, though, the most charitable reading of his comment, we still see the following:

  1. The millions of civilians that joined the Red Army to defend their homes and family from genocidal onslaught deserved it

  2. The tortorous methods by which the Nazis executed prisoners was justified, because the victims were communists

  3. The mass starvation inflicted on the soviets by the Nazis taking Ukraine, the USSR's breadbasket, was justified because the Red Army retook Ukraine

And more. Harboring someone and protecting his mod powers in the name of "anarchist critique of the soviets" is just Holocaust trivialization, full-stop, and makes anarchists seem like Holocaust trivializers in general if this is what passes as "anarchist critique."

dbzer0 has a lot of cool people, and some extremely terrible people that seem to be tolerated for their utility in attacking communists, to prevent dbzer0 from ever having a communist majority.

Hey, I've seem this one, it's every global south country that the US managed to sink its claws in.
