Welcome ex-Redditors!
-
They really are a community of nice people trying to protect their peace, as far as I've seen. They just defederated from instances with open registration due to influx of trolls, and a lot of users from those groups got offended over it. It was minor drama, but nothing offensive. It's a bit sad that they're still being vilified over it.
-
Perhaps that's because your instance is defederated from them? They were all over the place before most other major instances defederated from them. They are still all over the place if you're on an instance that federates with them.

who love strawmen
like โnarwhal baconโ

Yay, I'm glad you like it there! It's definitely more slow moving than the rest of Lemmy, but I like their weekly community chats and stuff. Also a killer gardening community.
-
Get the app: sync for Lemmy! It's amazing
-
Them not federating with another instance doesn't stop other instances seeing their content. It only stops their instance seeing the blocked instance's content.
-
There are some real weirdos here that have this as the major part of their personality.
Like that guy with the Buckies profile pic? lol I see him everywhere
-
I'd rather have the wild west of ideas over reddit. So I don't mind em
-
I mean you say that, but it's not like every community on .ml is focused on politics man. Their largest communities are mostly about tech. And they have a pretty cool, albeit somewhat inactive datahoarders community, of whom I think some are helping with redundant archival of datasets being erased by Trump's administration.

If instance A isn't federated with instance B, nobody from instance B sees instance A's content. That is different from a block.

Is it server side or can I remove it for myself? I am not a garden flower, words don't offend me.

As far as I'm aware, you'll have to move to another instance if you want to see slurs that badly.

or "tankie" is just a type of communist. who knows at this point.

Marx said communism is stateless
every type of leftism that im aware of except for social democrats want to achieve a stateless society. to be fair im not sure if social democrats can even be considered leftists.
-
Okay bro wtf is that wall of text. Theyโre all communist, full stop. Trying to label them something else doesnโt change the fact that communism is a political system for psychopaths
Man, I had some hope you'd look past your propaganda and programming, but I guess not.
I wish you the best in the future; try looking into what you're being fed. After you work through the humiliation of accepting the easy lies of conservatives, please remember you're not the only one to fall for it. It's very common, especially amongst men.
Good luck, you are loved ๏ธ

You can't, you have to move instances.

Different leftists have a different idea of what constitutes the "State" and what "Statelessness" looks like. For Marxists, the State is the oppressive elements of class society like millitarized police and armies that can only go away once the world is fully publicly owned and planned, and becomes classless. Anarchists however have an issue with hierarchy, rather than class, and want full decentralization and horizontalism. For a Marxist, Anarchism isn't "stateless" as it retains class distinctions (each commune is interested in its own success), Anarchists obviously would see Marxism as not truly stateless.
This difference is why a lot of conversations go nowhere between some Marxists and Anarchists.
