Why do I have to see news from 2015 in my feed? Get lost.

I’ve found some evidence and posted it here:
Lemmy.world Is Anti‑Humanity. How Its Admins Weaponized Defederation to Silence Palestine Solidarity

The last I’ve seen was this, but I remember before lemmy.world’s admin defederated from an entire instance over one user’s “death to all Zionists” display name. That user stepped down. The damage was done.

This was a political act. When a platform punishes critics of documented apartheid and ethnic cleansing more harshly than it punishes the apologists for those crimes, yes—that’s anti-humanity in practice. Complicity doesn’t require intent, just silence and a ban hammer.

The problem is, Israeli far-right groups and Zionist advocates have spent decades turning “antisemitic” into a shield. You call out forced displacement, apartheid, collective punishment—all well documented by Amnesty, B’Tselem, and Human Rights Watch—and they call you an antisemite. It’s an old trick, and it works.

So when a platform like lemmy.world bans “anti-Zionists,” they’re buying into that same smear. They’re not separating bigotry from basic human rights criticism. That means you literally can’t speak out against genocide there without being branded an antisemite. The only way to say “stop the genocide” is to wear that label as a badge of honor. And that’s exactly the point: any platform that forces you to accept a false accusation just to state the obvious is complicit.

Just now.

Yeah, they claimed Trump was ‘anointed by Jesus to cause Armageddon’ to justify Iran strikes. It’s an intellectually bankrupt appeal that deliberately targets the lowest common denominator.

People could discuss pretty much anything in old school forums which had only a handful of boards. Now we need millions of communities just because Reddit has them as well, even if there isn’t enough activity to justify them. I feel like the Fediverse already has enough fragmentation issues as it is because of all the similar communities in different instances. Separating niche communities into even more niche ones when those communities are barely active to begin with just doesn’t make sense. At some point we have to ask if the problem is the content or the voting system itself.

More communities in a platform saturated with abandoned communities seems like the worse possible idea.

My golden era was PS2/Xbox 360. The games I have fond memories of playing are the first three Harry Potter games, Gunbound, Lineage 2, Battlefield 2, COD MW 1&2. Since then, I’ve only played Batman: Arkham Asylum, Tomb Raider (2013), Witcher 3 and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.
