Fuck you reddit 2.0, took you long enough. Thanks though, we’ll stop seeing your crap posters pollute our comment section from now on.

90% of people we ban come from world. Very funny that they said they saw a rise of hate speech from our instance though considering the worlders we ban are fucking genocidal maniacs and fascists. You can check the modlog (it’s unfortunately federated), we are one of the tamest instances when it comes to banning people and deleting comments/posts.

For any worlder that was based and liked interacting with lemmygrad (you will notice we did not ban good faith participants), I recommend you make an account on a third-party instance that federates with us, like ml or ee until they also defederate from us because we have principles 🙃

Fuck israel, Palestine will be free a month from now mark my words 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

On top of that, for the worlders finally breathing free again now that the scary tankies are away, you think the USSR wasn’t communist or whatever. You base that on whatever you’ve been taught in school. We’ve read things. We’ve actually gone beyond whatever our high school teachers said and looked into the USSR for ourselves. If you’re not cowards you will debate us about communism and “totalitarian” regimes, we’ll wipe the floor with you. Bet you don’t even know where the world totalitarian comes from or who coined it without looking it up.

And we retain our perfect track record of not blocking real instances while you further isolate yourselves from anything that might cause you some amount of discomfort. Really good democracy you got going there where wannabe tech bros instance admins decide for you what you’re allowed to see, must be those liberal values I hear so much about.

    You can’t say ‘you stand with palestine’ while denying the people that Palestine stands with. You literally do not get to do that. This is not a bifurcated conflict. If Palestinian marxists and even unbased civilians decided that Hamas was good enough for them, that’s the end of your input on the situation-- otherwise, you’re not with them. You’re just two steps from both-sidesing Israel’s settler-colonial genocide.

    I cannot wait to see what happens when Black folk start cultivating proper leaders again; y’all’d probably fuck us yet again. “Oh, I don’t agree with the armed coalition militia” when we spent 400 years under peckerwood oppression; that’s what you’re doing to Palestinian civilians when you denounce some of the only people willing to actually protect them.

    And there are no civilians in Israel except the kids. Israel is a military conscription state. Everyone who isn’t a child either serves, or has served the IDF. They’re all legal combatants according to Amerikan RoEs.

      Palestine hasn’t had an election since 2006 when Hamas won with 40% of the vote. Furthermore, adults are fearful to speak out against Hamas, fearing violence as retribution. If you truly believe Hamas to be the Palestinian will, I don’t know what to say other than that you have less than zero knowledge of this conflict.

          You’re preaching to the choir dude.

          That doesn’t make the shit they do less fucked up though, just as Israel’s response to this attack isn’t made any less horrific just because Hamas murdered some people.

          You’re not gonna get me to cheer the deaths of random people just because their government’s actions are the reason for their deaths.

        What do you think the “Palestinian will” is?

        Just do another peaceful protest and pray they don’t get murdered again while everyone in the West acts like nothing happened?

        Also, just voting doesn’t tell you the full story. Is it not possible that while Palestinians would rather not take such measures, all other alternatives have been exhausted?

        I’m having trouble finding current polls, perhaps because of an active war, but it seems this operation has led to a surge in support for Hamas.
