I've seen the many forms in which human stupidity manifests, but Lemmy instance tribalism is absolutely one of the stupidest things I've ever seen.
Yes warning someone that they are about to get their fingers bitten off by a user from one of the most disingenuous groups online is the stupidest things you've ever seen then you must live in at the CERN LHC and never go out.
Thinking the entirety of the third largest, oldest Lemmy instance is a cultural, political, or even behavioral monolith makes a room temperature IQ enviable. Clearly all 58k .ml users believe and behave similarly. Clearly.
Just writing this sarcastically managed to make me even stupider.
I'm going to reply one more time and then block because there is no point in debating.
The .ml instance (including hex and grad) is one of the most controlled instances. Anything that doesn't align with support to authoritarian regime's objectives is nearly immediately silenced and will probably get you a ban from the whole instance itself. There are countless examples on https://sh.itjust.works/c/meanwhileongrad
I invite everyone reading this exchange to go there and make an opinion for themselves. The mods actions from .ml speak volumes just as the behaviour of their users (and brigading I can already see here).
Fuck tankies.
