I think they would be more moderate if more moderate people would have opportunity to participate. Right now all of the non left instances or communities get too quickly defederated and deleted, so moderate people who would normally participate dont want to create na account on a completely defederated instance. The only thing you are left of there are some crazies.

The only way I heard of conservative communities here is from a post that is asking for defederation or deletion

Because it’s just a thought experiment that is taken dogmatically, while in reality is just used by fascists to censor the free speech

Yes this is a honest concern, I tend to agree that there should be more freedom here, and things like piracy should be allowed. As well as total free speech, none of that paradox of tolerance bullshit everyone is trying to push whenever they want to censor someone.

However, I think though we can all agree that child abuse and CP is not allowed.

I feel like admins there are on a power trip, could be seen from their previous interactions.

Well maybe its unwanted by you, but it might be wanted by someone else.

I have no problem with anything having its space as long as its legal.

I never saw a NSFW post on lemmy actually, I have NSFW content hidden by default and it works great. Even though I am not interested in that content, I can respect that some people are.

This is also why I think banning communities because someone felt slightly offended is not the way to go. Lemmy already has a good way of moderating content per user, and you can ban communities and never see their content. I dont think instance admins should be removing anything other than illegal content.

Not the first time that person was looking around for reasons to be outraged and ban communities. I hope they decide to go isolated and defederate from all instances.

Illegal content should be removed in any case, but there is nothing illegal here.

Prime journalism we have here, pulling information out of ass:

• “according to UK officials”,
• "In its latest update … workers are most likely … ",
• “The MoD update said … authorities are highly likely threatening”,
• “One company has reportedly been set a target of 30 volunteers”,
• "The move will likely primarily affect … ",
• “This measure is highly likely at least tacitly endorsed by Moscow mayor …”,
• "Russia is thought to have suffered around 200,000 casualties … "

Didn’t name any sources, just vaguely UK officials (could be anyone). Every other word is likely, meaning they are just speculating.

Complete bullshit on that article I have to say.

Can you give me an article, because I could not find anything googling, maybe I didn’t put the right search terms. I found a website under the domain boycottrussia.info, but a website like this I can hardly consider objective. Keep in mind there is a lot of disinformation on the internet, and one should be careful using references from both the Russian and Ukranian governments and their allies.

Applying the same standard, should we boycott also all companies having business in Saudi Arabia, USA, and other countries that are involved in war efforts?

The international sponsor list is a list by Ukranian government, for all the companies that are doing business in Russia. Totally understandable move from their side of course. By actively sponsoring war effort, I think they are refering to the fact that they are paying taxes.

The title and the article is a bit misleading in some sense.

If france wants to ban american propaganda, I am sure no american will shed a tear lol

I strongly disagree. If they didn’t care they wouldn’t be buying media companies abroad.

Everyone agree that’s the state has authority over foreign bad actor speach. We are discussing here state censoring their own citizen’s peach which is highly problematic esp in so called “democracies”

Not everyone agrees. Allowing a government to decide who is a bad actor and ban the media is bad, that’s how countries fall into dictatorships and create narrative for their citizens. Just look at nazi Germany.

Same could be said for USA. Because the person above mentioned China, Iran, North Korea blocking media for political reasons. I mentioned that EU countries are doing the same. We should not have double standards.

Well most of the EU countries including France blocked all media channels from Russia

But how can I see kbin content from lemmy, I couldnt find an option yet. Also from kbin I cannot find lemmy communities
