There’s a difference, I think, between instances moderating as they wish and blocking entire instances. That should really be the last resort.
Just let mods be mods, there’s no need to turn this into some kind of Lemmy civil war and start unpersoning your enemies.

When instances become instruments of propaganda for Putin/Xi/Kim and ban people who expose such propaganda, they fully deserve to be blocked. They’ve become instruments of the enemies of civil society.
It’s the moderation practices of those instances that put them in the corner of “sectarian shit”. The rest of us don’t need to tolerate such toxicity.

But when instances become instruments of propaganda for NATO/US/EU and ban people who expose such propaganda, that’s fine.
I tolerate the toxicity of .world and other liberal instances, but maybe I shouldn’t. Maybe this is self harm. Maybe I should just join lemmygrad so I never have to get attacked again for disagreeing with the liberal consensus. I’d probably hit myself less.

I’d like to know what you’re saying is eu/usa propaganda on lemmy. As far as I’ve seen, people here are extremely anti usa at a minimum.
