Did you not read the rules for joining DB0 before you joined. They clearly state a full anti-zionist stance right there.

Dang and I just made this account too. Time to find a new instance… Any recommendations? How is lemmy.today?
This whole process has looked sus to me. And on top of that, I don’t think voting by up/downvoting the post itself is a good way to call votes — it means a minority can pass a rule without it being even seen by the majority (not sure that matters in this case). Voting should be done in a top-level comment.

eyeroll yes doofus. Do you think I support zionism?
kcweller@feddit.nl 2 weeks ago
No? I hope not, or joining DB0 would be a completely strange action. But you seem to think that their explicit rules on Zionism would not mean that they would act on a zionist-bar-like instance.

The vote was literally pinned instance-wide for a week and it passed with an overwhelming absolute majority, with majority of comments (of various active and established users) calling for a defed instead of community bans

Seeing your political inclinations you may wanna check out nazis.love, zionism.supporters, and netanyahu.net

Why do you think that?
n0respect@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
I think I wasnt thinking clearly. sticked posts it doesn’t matter what the up/downvote ratio is, its still gets pushed to all. COrrect?
db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Yes

People might not see the stickied post, for whatever reason. I’m mostly on X hours top, which hides the thread if older than X hours. Or someone could just not use Lemmy for a week. There is no notification or similar, no email alert.

I would argue that this would be the minority of users, not the majority.

Are there stats for how much voting eligible users there are, and how much of them actually vote on governance topics, or see (click on) governance topics?

Idk, the process looked fine to me. I can’t say I agree with the arguments and the outcome, but it never looked like a bad process.
Up-/Downvotes on a pinned post doesn’t change visibility for instance users.
agentant@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
I don’t see a reason why you should. It’s not like the vote didn’t happen for good reason. There’s no good reason to speak to genocide apologists.
n0respect@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Its this kind of bad-faith accusative argument that I hate most, from wherever it comes.
agentant@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
I don’t see how it’s bad faith to call an instance that has taken a stance in favor of a genocide "genocide apologist. They are doing genocide apologia. If you aren’t a genocide apologist, you should leave the genocide apologist instance, same as leaving the nazi bar if you aren’t a nazi.
n0respect@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
I have not seen evidence that the plurality of that instance is in favor of genocide. Im open to evidence.

Uh oh, if .ml is defending them db0 really is a lost cause.

I sm nlt an ml user and I still defend db0. Now what?
monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
.world user here, I am defending them. Are they a lost cause because they don’t support mass murder or are they are lost cause because they support international justice?
