browsing through All has so much pro-fascist posts coming from lemmygrad that it drowns out all the other instances. I’m surprised they’re even federated by default but we should have an option to block instances from All if lemmy is deadset on federating with them just because they are fascists with a red and yellow flag…

(before the Tankies start posting about how they aren’t pro-fascism “Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy” which all describe the Z movement in Russia they gleefully support in multiple posts)

    Actually that is the solution. lemmy.ml won’t block lemmygrad because the same people are behind both so the two instances are together. Even if you block lemmygrad there are users who know it’s blocked and so they make accounts on lrmmy.ml where they know they’ll have a larger audience and also sympathetic admins will back them up. Here you can’t tell the truth about any communist government past or present.

    Lemmy was designed to be federated. Federation is the main solution to these types of problems. Nobody needs to feel like they have to use lemmy.ml

    However I also agree with your feature request. It would be useful.
