Ugh, just went to the Talk page of the Alley of Angels article (the actual page has been changed to a redirect). It's very depressing.

Don't forget: they also banned /r/cth so that it would look less partisan when they banned /r/TheDonald.

I mean, I will think it's funny when Berhaw collapses due to a struggle session leading to a circular firing squad. I'll even laugh. But I don't have the time or energy to contribute to it.

Or it means this random guy spent way too much time on Reddit.

Yep, if people were reading this through hexbear, they wouldn't even be able to down vote you. Now they just have to do it through their startrek.website accounts.

Hexbear is one of the oldest Lemmy instances after Lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml. It was created back when Lemmy didn't even have federation, so it makes zero sense to say it was set up to spread propaganda; there was nowhere for it to spread.

This is the best bit I've seen today.

It's the Rumsfeld doctrine.

I actually mostly agree with you, especially in the context of Mastodon. Medium sized instances blocking other medium sized instances make the fediverse a more diverse place and make what server you're on a meaningful choice. But this is more like mastodon.social blocking kolektiva.social in terms of dynamics. The instance sizes make it not as healthy.

Hey, landlords and billionaires are a protected class!
