    And lemmy is full of people that say the tienamen square massacre was good and actively deny the uyghur genocide.

    If you’re using lemmy, you’re having a pint with with genocide supporters, nevermind the extremely odd amount of loli enjoyers.

      Nobody says it was good, the two camps are “it was bad” and “that’s not what happened at all”, and they’re 100% right about the fictional genocide

      It’s a federated network and you can block .ml, grad, and hexbear yourself or chose an instance that is already defederated from them.

        Useage of lemmy spreads the software and increases donations to the creators regardless of if you federate with them or not.

          We’re getting into some pretty third-order issues at this point, I don’t think the nazi bar metaphor really holds up anymore

            It’s like paying working in the same town as the Nazi bar. Maybe your taxes do end up keeping the roads and sidewalks that do go past the bar, but to say that’s supporting the bar is a stretch

        Im pointing out a double standard.

        I dont give a shit otherwise. Im just trying to have a good time in this late-stage capitalist hellscape where there is no ethical consumption.

      Ah I see you’ve run into the hexbear people. Theyre like the mentally ill homeless guy who just jerks in the middle of the street; better to leave them be, it’s just about never worth getting involved.
