I originally signed up for lemmy about six months ago due to becoming outraged over reddit’s continual coddling of hard right and fascist powermods that use their authority to harass.
It was good here at lemmy.world for a long while until I started getting harassed by a 12 day old right leaning mod in /politics.
I posted a thread here about what to do and even got back a response from the site operator.
Which was shortly followed by a PM my thekingoflorida (the site operator) scolding me and threatening action for calling out the mods bad behavior in threads.
Reading the wind I realized lemmy.world is heading down the shitshow path that so many other online social forums have become and immediately deleted my account.
@thekingoflorida I do not want you to respond, I don’t care about your opinion, and if the fucking software would let me block you, I would have already.
So in short, I’m looking for a lemmy instance that has zero right wing users with admins that actually want to keep right wing forum manipulation off of their platform. I don’t care about ‘the marketplace of ideas’ or fairness in speech that tries to give space to fascist rhetoric in the guise of equality.
EVERY time they worm their ways in and have admin support, it ALWAYS railroads into what ruined reddit. And I’m tired of these shitstains ruining communities that I enjoy.
So, TL;DR: I’m looking for a lemmy instance with ZERO tolerance for anything right of Bill Clinton.

Your username is fuck lemmy, pretty agro stance there of the imo.
With that said, the very left communist ones are lemmygrad and hexbear although I consider hexbear super authoritarian and not actually abiding by the socialist ideology. Someone else mentioned Beehaw which is an instance that is all about being polite. I’m not sure you would fit there given this post though.

I made this user account as a throwaway specifically after the instance admin actively supported am activist mod that was repeatedly harassing me, it was supposed to be fuck_lemmy.world but apparently you can’t use punctuation in usernames.

I think beehaw and hexbear are defederated from lemmy world

The admin you had a talk with posted the conversation and he was VERY fair towards you.

Ok then they’re off the list. I appreciate the context, other users replied with just the name. Their community list was giving me massive red flags so I’m glad you were able to comment on that
So far I think that’s going to be my choice. Submitted my application about 20 mins ago.
My original deleted username was nothing like this. I made the username as a throwaway to express my frustration with lemmy.world’s site admin.

From what I've seen, I sincerely think you'll like it at Beehaw. They're an ok bunch of progressive folks who refuse to let it become a nazi bar. I can get behind that. Have fun!
