Our instance is only defederated from one other instance and it's lemmygrad. My question is why? It doesn't seem like a hate group or anything as far as I can tell. Can someone fill me in?

I hope I posted this to the right place; still getting used to how lemmy works. If I should post elsewhere, let me know.

Hell, the entire Flat Earth thing started as a joke. Just a bunch of people going โ€œwouldnโ€™t it be funny if we started memeing about the earth being flat?โ€ And now here we are a few years later, with flat earthers launching rockets into space and subsequently disregarding the results that they get.

Creating a conspiracy theory for people to go down such as FE harms society. It causes people to fall into other conspiratorial ideas and those inevitably lead to anti-semitism.
