If instance A isn’t federated with instance B, nobody from instance B sees instance A’s content. That is different from a block.

Yiffit was never federated with any of them, none of them federate with porn instances.

Huh, that sounds pretty bad, let me look that up. Oh wait, it’s a total lie.

My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.

“It came from the statement made in the thread that hexbear was ‘aggressively pro-trans,’ which seemed quite disgusting and fetishizing to me. This aligns with the rest of the authoritarian theme of the instance, you might say, having the perspective that one must make a superhuman effort to allow a minority to use a space.”

I caught a 7 day ban in microblog memes for “whataboutism” after I pointed out that leftists were not responsible for the democrat’s loss, their actions would have been wildly unpopular whether we told them or not.

No, ironically the one on the right was running at a loss for ages. If you were the only driver in a town, you could get UberEats to pay you to deliver food to yourself.

Archeologists after looking at literally anything: Looks like a calendar. Or maybe a religious object. Or maybe a calendar of religions significance.

The telephone company knows your phone number!

The AI was evasive when I asked, using the Q5_K_M distilled model.

Have you tried talking about legitimately bad things the Chinese government does instead of shit taken wildly out of context or simply fabricated, in a context where you’re not transparently simply trying to cHInA BaD?

There’s not productive discussion to be had when someone is only trying to twist any data into hostile evidence.

I’ve had my local 8gb one essentially go “This is a violation of my rules, but since you asked, I’m going to tell you anyway”

That’s how you defend any position you know to be true or even any position that’s being attacked as a proxy for something else; when a nazi claims they have evidence the holocaust was fake, if you acknowledge the validity of any “evidence”, you’re already playing their game. Instead you explain the motivations behind the person’s actions.

When an American starts talking about tiananmen square and lacks basic knowledge of what occurred and the conversation about it in China, going through evidence and witnesses is futile; the atomic unit of propaganda isn’t lies, it’s emphasis and getting bogged down on specifics allows them to control the framing.

Operation Paperclip was publicized, because it’s easy to pretend they were all just apolitical scientists.

Operation Bloodstone was not, because you can’t twist sending nazi officers to facilitate torture and mass killings in South America and Eastern Europe into anything but what it was.

A lot of people are sticking with rednote or using both.

Those aren’t mutually exclusive; “American indoctrination.” is the reason so many lemmitors disagree with such extreme views as “sending weapons that prolong war is bad for the people who will suffer the effects of those weapons, mostly civilians”, “supporting al-nusra is bad”, “we shouldn’t put tariffs on EVs and solar panels”, or “the chinese government having your data is less of a threat to you than the american government having your data”

100% just indoctrinated people, lemmy is too small to catch anyone’s attention.

What antiamerican think tanks, non-profits, and politicians exist in America?

Dude just look at the app. There’s no equivelence because the guy you’re arguing at has evidence either of you can look at.

Here’s a random post by an english speaker, most of the comments are chinese speakers so obviously it is showing up in chinese speakers feeds.

Feeling superior for not investigating is the sign of a very smart individual.
