Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for Ukraine�s Air Force, has reported that the Russians had reduced the number of air strikes after losing three of their Su-34 strike fighters in Ukraine’s south.
Yeah, no. There’s really not much value lost when blocking both Lemmygrad and Hexbear. Lemmygrad is straight up insanity, it would go down as the greatest satire instance if not for the fact that they actually believe the shit they’re saying. And the loudest users of Hexbear are just hypocrites. They completely justify brigading other instances in the most offensive way possible and cry wolf when they get blocked, only to turn around and ban anyone who even remotely questions their ideology on their own instance. Blocking either is the equivalent of blocking a far-right instances, because they’re all extremist.
And this is coming from a socialist who has not blocked either instance. In fact I’m more likely to get blocked by them because despite being supposedly ideologically adjacent we have very little common ground, and they don’t take kindly to someone questioning their actions or beliefs.
Unfortunately this instance really isn’t interested they are tankies as much as the other two you might as well ban this one too, it’s a shame so many communities are on here
Except they were the ones that created Lemmy in the first place so they could live in their own little echo chamber so if anyone’s guilty of running away to hide from criticism it’s them not the general public. You know because most people don’t think communism is great. Mostly because they either saw it, learned about it, or lived through it.
Traditionally people actually bother to learn even a shred of information about a topic before they start having strong opinions about them. That way they don’t end up saying embarrassingly and factually wrong things like “communism is just a dictatorship” or that the Soviet Union and China have no democratic processes is existence. (Or talk about the USSR in the present tense).
You also shamelessly pivoted from “it’s bad that communists go to their own spaces” to “communists should be forced into their own spaces!”
The latest lemmy update allows users to block entire instances.
My lemmy experience has been 100 times better with hexbear and lemmygrad blocked.
Unfortunately startrek.website is still running 18, so I’m stuck with playing whack-a-mole
Echo chamber lifestyle devoid of geopolitical facts must be nice copium…

Eh, I’m here to relax and have fun.
Not be told I’m a piece of shit who deserves to be executed because I had the audacity to be born every ten minutes.

Oh, I thought it was because those instances are home to communities of obnoxious assholes.
If not wanting to interact with those idiots means I’m “in an echo chamber” … ok.

Communists didn’t choose to move to our own spaces, we had to because we were systematically banned from others.
Funny how people who say this inevitably did none of these things.
