After years of reddit/twitter/facebook propping up fascism/bigotry with algorithms & bots I’m honestly surprised and relieved to be in an online space that clearly rejects their ideology.

They can have reddit/facebook/twitter. AFAIC the only way to reach some of these people is to leave them alone long enough to realize on their own.

Lemmy.world admins are doing an amazing job dealing with everything. Their recent decision to defederate from exploding heads (or whatever its called) really goes to show that they’re in it for the right reasons.

    And the idea that debating these people does anything other than platform and broadcast their sickness is destroying both social media and the news. We don’t need to both-sides every issue and pretend that it’s a debate, when it’s people who view certain others as sub-human vs people who don’t. Whether certain groups should exist or have the same rights as the rest of us is not a debate topic and we need to stop treating it like it is.
