Lemmy.ml is acting as a proxy instance for Hexbear and should be defederated by any instances that defederate from Hexbear (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

It's very easy to label people fascists as a generic "bad people" label and claim they're arguing in bad faith based on nothing but your feelings. I could just as easily call you a fascist for trying to decide what everyone else on this instance gets to see and that you're arguing in bad faith wanting vengeance because you threw a tantrum on another instance and got spanked for it.

The most name-calling I see are from people like you who label anyone who disagrees with them a "fascist", "shill", "bot", "tankie", "wumao" or millions of other terms and I see so many posts getting downvoted for not following your desired narrative. We can see this happen in the posts right here.

tankie:

(politics, slang, derogatory, by extension) A supporter of authoritarian policies and actions by the Soviet Union, China, or other nominally socialist governments.

fascism:

Any right-wing, authoritarian, nationalist ideology characterized by centralized, totalitarian governance, strong regimentation of the economy and society, and repression of criticism or opposition.

So yeah, Hexbear isn't full of fascists, it's full of tankies, which are just fascists with a socialist coat of paint. The fact that I'm doing this because I was actioned by a moderator acting as a tankie commissar doesn't change the validity of my reasoning as to why being federated to Lemmy.ml is a problem.

and you think this entitles you to be commissar dictating what everyone on this instance gets to see or not see? If I call you fascist enough times, does that mean your posts can be blocked for everyone?
