I am also unhappy about what the main lemmy instance is doing.

What are your thoughts?

    There is a difference between people advocating for human rights abuses and people saying that some actor does in fact not engage in human rights abuses.

    The main difference is, that one practice gaslighting as a means to justify such acts.
    They will claim “it was just joking”, or explain how in fact the abuse is something good, hence they aren’t for human right violation because they are for something that they just defined as something good.

      I haven’t seen this. What I’ve seen is that people say that the abuses do not occur.

      show instances of lemmy.ml users saying “I was joking” or “saying that abuse is a good thing” during a discussion about any alleged genocide, abuse or disater.
