I think Rimu has tied this warning to the peoplesdispatch.org domain. I think this is a custom thing he did to his instance, because I didn’t find it in the PieFed codebase. ~~[ETA: it is in the codebase, in a separate repo].~~ [ETA: I’m told that no specific site warnings are baked into the code, just the feature is. For site blocks, there is an optional default list of domains, which I’m told contains only far-right/fascist sites.]

I don’t think People’s Dispatch is even Marxist-Leninist. I think it’s an international anti-imperialist media site. But I wouldn’t assume Rimu could explain the difference or care that there is one. Maybe all anti-imperialists are tankies to him.

Will they have a warning label for Zionist outlets?

Are you sure this is a "warning"? /s

Sounds like an indicator of quality, instead. Even the icon is in red, the color of hope.

The whole piefed thing has to be a bit right?

All the bullshit they say about silencing and 1984 is as always, a classic case of projection.

Please enlighten us on where we should be getting the full objective unbiased reality from, the New York Times maybe? God forbid a media takes a pro working class / global south bias instead of the usual neoliberal status quo ideology. Call them out on it and they'll deny they even follow any ideology, they're just being Objective™.

Two years ago, Lemmy.world tried a similar move with their MediaBiasFactCheck bot. It was soundly rejected by the community, and they finally relented after weeks of outcry. Why is @Rimu putting us through this again?

It's right in the name. Fed.

If I hadn't given the instance to someone else, I would have considered leaving a community note on Rimu's user page with a red exclamation mark saying "this user is a complete idiot".
