Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We're currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.

Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

Okay, I'll switch to talking about the big man himself.

It is a wonderful thing that Hitler killed himself. It was a PR blessing for the allies, because it prevented him from becoming a martyr. If Hitler had not killed himself, I do not think he should have been given the death penalty. I am against killing Hitler unless he was an active combatant. I think Hitler should have been given life in prison, because I am against the death penalty in all circumstances. And it would have made him a martyr.

Likewise, Netanyahu should not be killed. He should be given a fair trial, which I believe should reach a verdict of life in prison. I don't want Netanyahu martyred, I don't want to spend tons of money on his death row, I just want to put him in a room where he can't hurt anyone until he dies of old age.

    The Nazis got some of their best inspiration from America's treatment of black people. I don't exactly think America is a shining beacon of responsibility, especially in the 1940s. I don't think America should have a death penalty, because I don't trust the American government to wield that power responsibly. If political enemies like Hitler can be executed, then political enemies like Edward Snowden are at risk too.

    As an anarchist, I want to limit the power of the state because I don't trust anyone with that much power. And I especially don't trust the likes of Harry Truman and Richard Nixon.

    What do you mean? Lots of anarchists dislike state sponsored executions, no matter who's getting executed by the state.

    Now if we're talking about an assassin killing Hitler during WW2, then I'm on the assassin's side.

    Now if we’re talking about an assassin killing Hitler during WW2, then I’m on the assassin’s side.

    What fascinating brainworms.

    Let's say I want to assassinate Hitler. Allied intelligence finds out about my plot and supplies me with information about Hitler's whereabouts. They also send me a bunch of C-4 for me to use however I please. I then proceed to use the C-4 to blow up Hitler.

    Do you approve or disapprove? If you approve, then how is that meaningfully different from the state simply sending an assassin? The fact that I'm not vetted or trained and might get cold feet, or blow someone else up? Or is it just that I'm not getting paid that makes the difference? What about if they give me a medal afterwards, if I accept, does that make it wrong?

    Exactly how connected to the state do I have to be for killing Hitler to magically become immoral? Help me understand.
