Bluesky suspending antifascist researchers for sharing publicly available information about literal nazis.
Should be no surprise considering bsky constantly protects nazis, the far right, and all flavors of bigotry at the expense of Palestinians and trans women.
Fortunately, their information already spread so far and wide that at least half of the Blood Tribe nazis lost their jobs following the mass doxx. Chris Pohlhaus, leader of BT, estimated financial losses at over $2 million lol. Happy holidays!
I get your point about he company we keep, but tankies are typically authoritarian communists, not Nazis, and antisemitism isn’t usually a part of their outlook. You’ll find far more fascists on other social media platforms.
Sorry for being confusing, but you are correct, tankies are not literal Nazis - I was referring to the Paradox of Tolerance whereby, as some may consider paradoxically, when we attempt to tolerate everyone then in reality we will become less free than if we would exclude those who would act to take freedom away from others (this logical principle is often called by the “Nazi bar” effect, where you yourself may not be an actual “Nazi”, or in our case a tankie, and yet by virtue of association we are seen as such by Redditors who might otherwise flock here and contribute much more content than we currently have here).
Edit: here is an interesting comparison to ponder about. In this post (trigger warning: on Reddit) https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1putgx5/lemmy_release_v01915_and_testing_for_10/ from yesterday, it mentions a Lemmy updated version, and do you see where the linked URL leads? Directly to lemmy.ml. Contributions to advance the Lemmy source code are also subverted into use to administer the Lemmy.ml instance, the only way to avoid that happening being to donate specifically to Nutomic directly. Lemmy code == Lemmy.ml, by the very devs of the platform. In contrast, here is another post https://www.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/1pu7vkf/piefed_14_is_released_emote_reactions_ai_content/ from the day before that, and its primary link is to codeberg for the actual software, and only secondarily are links provided for more info on PieFed.social. It is possible to have a federated threaded-based conversational platform that is not primarily run and at least somewhat controlled by tankies. And yet even PieFed.social does not defederate from Lemmy.ml.
so just nazi-lite, just without most of the racism and bigotry. from what ive seen alot of them posting on here, comment the same way conservatives do, same shtick
