    It doesn’t work like that, how long does it take until people realize silencing people you disagree with doesn’t solve the issue? 🤦

      People can say whatever they want but we don’t cater to bootlickers here, they can go fuck themselves. Why should we allow comments from people who want me dead? Their fascist bullshit is allowed basically anywhere else, they can go to reddit.

        No platform for fascists.
        Imperialists are the Fascist International.

        The U.S. Did Not Defeat Fascism in WWII, It Discreetly Internationalized It

        Since the colonial projects of Hitler and Mussolini had become so brazen and erratic, as they shifted from playing more or less by the liberal rules of the game to openly breaking them and then running amok, it was understood that the best way to construct the fascist international was to do so under liberal cover, meaning through clandestine operations that maintained a liberal façade.

        The American imperium has thus played a central role in the construction of a fascist international by protecting right-wing militants and enlisting them in the Third World War against ‘communism,’ an elastic label extended to any political orientation that entered into conflict with the interests of the capitalist ruling class. This international expansion of fascist modes of governance has led to a proliferation of concentration camps, terrorist and torture campaigns, dirty wars, dictatorial regimes, vigilante groups and organized crime networks around the world.

        Trump has dispensed with the liberal mask, making America nakedly imperialist again.

      It doesn’t work like that

      Looks like it does work like that. Moderators moderate the discussion. lemmy.ml has no obligation to platform imperialists, nor is there any value in doing so.

      And it works well, this community is a lot more pleasant and educational without having to deal with antisocial war-hawks and trolls constantly starting arguments instead of discussions. It’s certainly solves that issue.

    • No one is silenced, Lemmy is censorship proof meaning you are free to start your own instance and communities or participate in any of the other communities where you can spread your support and justification for US imperial activities and CIA propaganda. Lemmy is essentially a fancy email client and just because we don’t want US propaganda in our community doesn’t mean that anyone is being “silenced”

      US apologia is the classic Nazi bar. Let one yank fuck in and the entire thing gets the yank stink on it.

      if you want to freely spread pro-empire propaganda then go back to reddit or to one of the dozens of lemmy instances that adores that kind of behavior

      no one is required to consume your vapid bullshit, nor to host it

      I dont think you understand how lemmy works. Instances are ran how the people who graciously host them wish.

      If you dont like how the admins run this particular instance, make or join one that reflects your values. You dont get to demand anything. You are free to block the instance and/or the person posting. I will comment a guide below on how to do so.

        Welcome to a tutorial on how to block .ml on your personal account.

        In the top right corner of the top of the page, there are 3 horizontal white bars. Click it.

        This will open up a drop down menu. At the bottom of that menu, you will see your username. Click it.

        This will open another drop down menu with 3 options. Click “Settings”.

        At the top of your screen you will see 2 tabs. Click the one that says “Blocks”.

        Here you will see “Block user” “Block community” and “Block instance”. Click the down arrow below “Block instance”.

        This will open up a search bar. Type “lemmy.ml” and click it after it shows up. That’s it! You’ve blocked .ml and will never see content from the instance.

        But wait, we aren’t done yet in this menu. Click the down arrow under “Block user”. Now type “UltraGiGaGigantic” Make sure you select my .ml account as the other ones I no longer use. Thanks, appreciate it.

      sounds like reddit lol [REMOVED]

      For freedom of speech on certain topics reddit is clearly superior again after similar statements of the lemmy developers.

        Reddit is pro-US-empire, we’re anti-US-empire here.

        Try going over to reddit (or any US-controlled tech platform) and saying something negative about Israel, and see how long you last.

          you must be joking.
          .ml obviously but the rest of the Lemmy libfest is hardly better.
          All they want is their respectable form of imperialism with a slick mass murderer like Obama or Genocide Joe.
          I get banned/removed here all the time.
          Not only over Shitrael

        freedom of speech reddit

        hahaha

        Pretty funny thing to say on a site filled with people banned from reddit for saying things, including but not limited to the word “Luigi”.
