Fuck you reddit 2.0, took you long enough. Thanks though, we'll stop seeing your crap posters pollute our comment section from now on.

90% of people we ban come from world. Very funny that they said they saw a rise of hate speech from our instance though considering the worlders we ban are fucking genocidal maniacs and fascists. You can check the modlog (it's unfortunately federated), we are one of the tamest instances when it comes to banning people and deleting comments/posts.

For any worlder that was based and liked interacting with lemmygrad (you will notice we did not ban good faith participants), I recommend you make an account on a third-party instance that federates with us, like ml or ee until they also defederate from us because we have principles πŸ™ƒ

Fuck israel, Palestine will be free a month from now mark my words πŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡΅πŸ‡Έ

On top of that, for the worlders finally breathing free again now that the scary tankies are away, you think the USSR wasn't communist or whatever. You base that on whatever you've been taught in school. We've read things. We've actually gone beyond whatever our high school teachers said and looked into the USSR for ourselves. If you're not cowards you will debate us about communism and "totalitarian" regimes, we'll wipe the floor with you. Bet you don't even know where the world totalitarian comes from or who coined it without looking it up.

And we retain our perfect track record of not blocking real instances while you further isolate yourselves from anything that might cause you some amount of discomfort. Really good democracy you got going there where wannabe tech bros instance admins decide for you what you're allowed to see, must be those liberal values I hear so much about.

They went full masks off with this conflict.

They're literally indistinguishable from reddit-logo at this point

It's where they all came from so no surprise.

At this point it's not from Reddit, it's probably from 4chan or even the real Stormfront.

I'm out of the loop with reddit stormfront. Is that some anti-communist circlejerk?

Stormfront is a Neo-Nazi forum founded in 1996. The joke is that Reddit is similarly fascist and heading down the same path, which is why the emote is titled :reddit-logo:

the joke is that there was a stormfront subreddit, this is not a doctored screenshot.

Didn't they use getting rid of that as a counterweight for getting rid of a left sub that wasn't cth? Cause I remember for cth it was TheDonald.

part of the joke is also the fact that reddit has generally been quicker banning leftist subs while doing nothing about obvious nazi ones until they're forced to by PR.

Apologies, I meant they're indistinguishable from reddit in general; the stormfront / reddit custom emoji is simply a reference to the fact reddit is full of fash.
