Dbzero Governance Vote Post https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/63525728

Ahoy mateys!

A few of our users have recently pointed out that a lot of the pro-Zionist accounts on the fediverse nowadays seem to come from the feddit.org instance.

But whatever the excuse happens to be, they need to do better imo. Israel is currently the most violent, fascist and genocidal nation state in the Middle East (if you exclude the US military bases there). And yet feddit.org seems to regard the Palestinians fighting against Israel’s ongoing illegal occupation of their land as the real terrorists. ....

More context

Our instance already voted to ban pro-Zionist accounts (see https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/60585441 for reference) and the rule that was implemented is here: Golden Rule #8.

As further context, you can find relevant comments and discussion in this post by a banned feddit admin in MoG (that fact they chose to post in MoG is in itself quite telling), and this post about their defederation from quokk.au over anti-semitism allegations has recently become active again. ...

Note 2: If you think feddit.org deserves a full instance ban instead, or have alternative suggestions, then please leave your comments below. If enough people think that’s the better option, then we’ll do that instead.

In the end the Post had around 70% of support by dbzer0 users, who in the comments also called for defederation.

Here is a Link to Dbzer0 instances tab https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/instances where if you go to blocked instances you can see fedddit.org is now defederated

i dont think feddit has made a post now, but when they do i will add it

What if I told you my instance didn't conduct a check of political attitude when joining?

[-] Riverside@reddthat.com 16 points 2 weeks ago

Yes, exactly, allowing Zionists in your platform is bad

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

So you did not pass the no-Zionists check on other instances and had to join an instance without it

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 2 weeks ago

They're on piefed so it's just hidden/inherent to the code

[-] seawoowaes@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

What if I told you that your instance has a literal social credit score

[-] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 3 points 2 weeks ago

lol. Did you carefully read that?
80% of those excerpts are bot abuse prevention mechanisms. In CS, we call it sybil mitigation.

[-] seawoowaes@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

why are you excusing the social credit score yea ok "bots" nice excuse. Lemmy.world has no problem with them and they don't cater to tankies

[-] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

Reset your biases first. Meditate. Rebase.

Then click here why.Fascists have been spamming fashprop everywhere. It's affected me, friends, and communities.

Because that makes it easier for them to accept it's there if they can claim it is something else
