The implication here is that somehow that's a problem with lemmy and lemmy.world...but I bet he also had an amazon account and no one is blaming them.
I didn't read it as any particular implication, but that they just found the money quotes they wanted on lemmy.world.
I heard the bomber was chosen as Time person of the year in 2006
Small niche where the user is active, big international service that everyone uses that has zero connections to them.
Gee I wonder why people are talking about lemmy.world
"Active" being a dozen posts from two years ago.
Though right now we're probably inflating our own importance by thinking anyone at all will associate Lemmy with this guy in any meaningful way. The name was referenced by the reporter because they needed to say where the random posts came from, and talked about like it's just a general social network rather than an organizing place for a radical ideology.
