    I told you, don’t feed the nazi trolls. The worst for their kind is to be starved out of attention.

    That’s actually pretty obvious that people who don’t care about ANY genocide at all are actually Goat and PugJesus themselves. They just found bait that worked for you guys.

    I think cm0002, the deeply scratched anti-authoritarian-communist liberal, had the political savviness to stay out of these !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com conversations. He isn’t banned from that community or instance, and he was otherwise active, so I think this was a conscious choice. Let goat & pg take the heat.

    I’m utterly shocked that the Zionist social chauvanists that tend their nazi-bar and spend all day attacking Marxists would some day start targeting anarchists for not being in lock-step with them. Shocked, I tell you!

    In all seriousness, I called this over a year ago. Being right-wing socdems at best and spending all your time attacking communists is already the twin of fascism, then you add in caping for Israel, casual misogyny, transphobia, etc and anyone could have seen a mile away that their “purity tests” would eventually also draw anarchists into their fire.

    Extremely toxic behavior.

      We were expecting it as well to happen at some point. There was no love lost between us and the libs during the US election period, and there’s always been a lot of peeps hating us for our principled stances on copyrights, electoralism and “left unity”. I think it was a bit of an assumption on your part to think that just because we were arguing some times with campists, we weren’t also arguing with turbolibs.

      Funnily PJ did show his hand, by claiming out that he has anarchists that he gets along with. And then pointed out to people who just discovered anarchism less 1 year ago. Funny how further radicalism pushes people away from liberalism, innit? :D

        I didn’t mean you should be surprised, I figured most of y’all expected it too. This is more for those on your site that are big fans of MWoG despite it being a Nazi bar (won’t get into names, not interested in that, and it isn’t a majority of your users, maybe a handful), as well as those on the more liberal instances that align with PJ’s “left” anti-leftism, ie Lemmy.world.

        I agree with your general stances on copyrights and electoralism, and am not trying to get into an argument about “campism.” I just think in this particular moment as leftists we are both aligned, and can at least appreciate that aspect. I know we have our disagreements, but that’s not something I want to get into now, I’m just having a bit of fun with people turning on MWoG, PJ, and Goat.

        Edit: Yes, I saw that anarchist claim! PJ also claims to know more about Marxism than me, which, I think even with your disagreements with me we can both agree that that’s absurd. I’m no expert, of course, but I think I can humbly accept that I’ve put in the effort to know what I talk about in that regard.

            Yep, exactly! I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel a bit bad for PJ, they seem to be crashing out more and more lately. They’re still wrong, of course, but unlike Goat PJ at least seems like they have the potential to change their views in the future instead of remaining a permanent radlib. I’m only really saying this because I’m pretty sure PJ has me blocked, lol.

          proving that your instance brigades

          I’ve never heard anyone accuse dbzer0 of brigading before, and I’m often unsure what someone considers brigading to be.

          post fake nude images

          I don’t understand. Are fake nude images of fake people worse than real nude images of real people?

          Your instance is even federated with Hexbear. How do you defend that?

          I’m sure that sounded relevant in your head, where federating with Hexbear is self-evidently a sin. If they owe you a defense, what’s the accusation?

        I thought anarchism

        that’s because you have never read anything about anarchism and have no idea what it is. anarchism as a philosophy requires solidarity. and solidarity means a community coming together to protect itself from those bad actors who wish it harm. the freedom of association that is a core part of anarchism also means the freedom to disassociate. banning pug and goat was our community disassociating itself from someone who doesn’t wish us well and doesn’t want to be a part of us anyway. anyone who is on our matrix knows that everyone there was very supportive of the way the dbzer0 and AN admins have taken care of the situation and protected the peace of our community. nothing that has happened is at all at odds with anarchism, any more than it would be at odds with liberalism or communism.

        neither pug nor goat have lost their ability to take part in fedi, an ability they have made good use of by posting constant rage posts in their own comms. a couple of sad little kings, presiding over their sad little hills.

                  Furthermore, despite aggressively (and rightly) removing other forms of genocide denial in that comm, both Holodomor and Uyghur Genocide denial are left up in that thread, despite the participation of multiple admins and the reporting of the material.

                  In addition to that, both Uyghur genocide denial and Holodomor denial in that same thread are upvoted by the Dbzer0 community.

                  How many dbzer0 users would you like me to cite engaging in Uyghur genocide denial or Holodomor denial before you’ll concede that it might be a problem? Legitimate question, I know of a significant number, so I may be able to convince you if you’re legitimately just skeptical.

                  On the third neo liberal “democracy” isnt real and is largely a vessel for control by the capitalist oligarchic class, I do not think ML is the solution to that however.

                  Rather than being a reference to modern democratic states, the position is in relevance to the Spartacist Uprising, which proposed, in response to Germany’s defeat in WW1 and subsequent incoming elections which the KPD was not barred from running in, and which were largely spearheaded by the then-much-more-left-wing-than-the-modern-day SPD, to attempt a coup explicitly along Bolshevik lines, which had, the previous year, dissolved a democratically elected revolutionary government in Russia.

                  DB0 believes that this vanguardist approach is true anarchist praxis, praising ML imitators as ‘libertarian socialists’.

    NEWEST UPDATE! (WARNING A LITERAL ASSHOLE}

    What the fuck Goat? Like, I shouldn’t be surprised since you:

    • admitted you had accounts on nazi shitholes like voat*
    • have enthusiastically defended exploding-heads, a nazi instance**
    • had an account on burggit.moe, a pedo instance-***
    • -which you quit because it didn’t allow your kind of yum (gore)***
    • were a mod for the explicitly named r/whatchpeopledie*
    • probably beat your meat to “odd things”, taking the two previous points into account

    But still, sending pictures of your little sheriff star to people… dang son 😶

    By the way OP, you should add a link to the source of your latest update: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/52444570

      I got banned from voat, twice, because I was questioning nazis on their views. I like to question extremists and make it clear that their positions are illogical and nonsensical, only fuelled by hatred and insecurity. I also take credit for helping shut down ruqqus, which was filled with alt-righters. I also helped shut down /r/uncensorednews, which was the largest neo-nazi subreddit. But sure, I’m a nazi because I dare challenge them, that makes sense.

      I challenge extremists of all varieties. I challenge tankies, jihadists, Christian fundamentalists, sovereign citizens, QAnons, anti-vaxxers, antisemites, libertarians and trump supporters. Does that make me all of those things? No, obviously not.

      ExplodingHeads didn’t start openly fascist. They first presented themselves as conservative, as extremists usually do. At the time Lemmy was brand new, and my argument was that the fediverse needs variety and diversity of opinions to stay alive. Unfortunately, EH was co-opted by neo-nazis, or they were neo-nazis all along, but if anyone from back then recalls, I also regularly challenged them on their Trump-supporter positions. But it’s easier to ignore all that history and context.

      I joined because it had an icon of a burger, but I left after I realised what it was. Moved on to aussie.zone and later to SJW.

      I was, I was brought on by tejmar, the head mod who wanted WPD to be a more serious subreddit, not filled with sick jokes of making fun of dead people and because I was good at identifying extremists early and catching onto their many dogwhistles. We both wanted WPD to be a more educational community like /r/medizzy, focusing on a more philosophical and medical take on the subreddit’s content. After the Christchurch shooting, I left because it was my opinion that the shooting shouldn’t be posted due to the shooter being a neo-nazi and also because it’s sickening footage that will get the sub in hot water. My protests went unheard, I was removed, and predictably, it was banned.

      I don’t even have meat… Also don’t know what you mean by sheriff star?

        Yeah, you didn’t join because it was a freeze peach zone which you only quit because they didn’t allow your kink. If I wasn’t that lazy I’d go take a look on the wayback machine, I’m sure it’s all saved there somewhere.

          After two years. I was curious, and you didn’t need to make an account to access their chatroom. Made it easy to troll that one single guy.

          Well, I mean, if you surround yourself with nazis and go to bat for them…

          They banned me lol, I wasn’t supporting them in the slightest.

          Yeah yeah, you go soft on nazis and shit on leftists. I know that already.

          I shit on everyone. No one on the fediverse even knows my political position.

          Yeah, you didn’t join because it was a freeze peach zone which you only quit because they didn’t allow your kink. If I wasn’t that lazy I’d go take a look on the wayback machine, I’m sure it’s all saved there somewhere.

          wat. that doesn’t make sense. Burgit was the instance that was allowing loli shit, which I didn’t realise because NSFW is opt-in on Lemmy. As soon as I found out, I left immediately and good riddance. But if you wanna look at loli shit on the wayback machine, go ahead, kinda fuckin weird

          Little you was just lending a hand making things respectable huh?

          Yes. I criticised Tejmar and the moderator team there for allowing disgusting comments making fun of dead people. So they brought me on to make a change to that, and then they booted me when I told them not to post the Christchurch shooting. Also technically, goat is my alt since I owned slugcat first, and have been pretty open about slugcat being my original account. Thank you for listing the thread though, I’m eager to hear some input on that community concept. I’m in the medical field, so death and gore are pretty common in my usual life.

          I’d be confused too if a fucking amazonian rainforest had prevented me from seeing my brownie box all my life. Shave that ass dude…

          I’ve since found the post you’re referring to, and that’s hella fake. It’s since been removed across db0 and lemmy.world because it’s against Lemmy’s code of conduct and also it’s fake. Also I’m not even a dude

              I have already explained to you that I wasn’t aware the instance had that sort of content because NSFW is an opt-in feature. Once I realised I immediately left.

        PJ claims to be, somehow, they put “vaguely left” in their profile. They hate both Marxism and anarchism, though, and seem to always act as though they are the true judge of someone being Marxist or anarchist. They seem to love social democracy, itself right-wing. You’d think after getting disproven over and over again, they’d actually start to listen to the Marxists and anarchists, but instead they powertrip and ban all dissent. Toxic behavior, and kinda sad.

        Goat, on the other hand, has never claimed to be on the left to my knowledge. They’ve openly been pretty right wing this entire time. Toxic, but not sad, seems they just want to rile people up and provoke a reaction more than anything.

            I consider the left to be pro-socialism, and anti-capitalism. Under that general umbrella, Marxism and anarchism are by far the largest umbrellas. There are some groups like the Zapatistas that reject both labels, and they are valid, but few in number.

              Just throwing out there that you’re not the bar with which the left is measured.

              I appreciate your take but you aren’t an authority and nobody here is, and almost everyone around here seems to be incapable of understanding that their specific view isn’t the ideal.

              Purity tests are best left for fascism

                I’m not an authority, no. Never claimed to be. However, outside of the Zapatistas, I’m not sure I can even name a leftist movement that doesn’t draw directly from Marxism or anarchism in the modern era. Marxism generally is heavily influential over those for full collectivization, while anarchism is heavily influential over those that seek horizontalism and decentralization. Groups that reject both are usually just social democrats that wish to retain capitalism.

              Not who you asked, but I’d say the closest outside Zapatismo is Nkruhmahism-Touréism, which draws heavy influence from Marxism-Leninism to my understanding but takes most of its influence specifically from Kwame Nkrumah and Ahmed Touré.

                That’s… obscure :D I’ve never heard of it, but it looks very interesting. From a very surface-level analysis, it looks quite similar to Nasserism, but probably less anti-communist lol

                Speaking of, while we’re talking about this, what are your thoughts about Nasser/Nasserism?

                  Nkrumahism-Touréism is gaining in popularity among pan-African socialists, but that’s about the extent of my knowledge on the subject. Quasi-socialist national liberation movements like Nasserism are generally progressive in moving against imperialism and towards self-determination, so in that frame it’s like a more progressive Baathism. In the context of imperialism as the primary obstacle to global socialism, those groups earn more critical support than comprador regimes.

                  That being said, I’m far from an expert on Nasser and Nasserism, the middle east is an area I’m quite undereducated on. Hoping to learn more about African struggles in the How Europe Underdeveloped Africa reading threads, but outside of Palestinian liberation and the various factions involved with it like the PFLP, Hezbollah, Hamas, etc, my knowledge for now is too low for me to really have an opinion beyond my general support for opposition to imperialism.

    Just going to add another post discussing this; I did a write-up of the constant use of ‘degenerate’ as an insult specifically in the MoG comm, posted on hexbear, and cited the inciting incident as the latest people to get dubbed ‘tankies’ by this crew.

    It’s a fascist dogwhistle, especially the way its use is normalized on MoG. Their specialty is in turning everyone they disagree with into a ‘tankie’ that can’t possibly have a point, and consequently all abuse is then fair game. Ironic that they immediately started trying to flip the script with accusations of ‘tankie bar’

      It’s a fascist dogwhistle, especially the way its use is normalized on MoG.

      I recall back over a decade ago when trolling fascist dickheads at /pol/, I called on my inner cantankerous, old man to ridicule their illiberal views and started calling them backward degenerates trying to set society back to the dark ages. With their scant vocabulary, they went agog with astonishment at this new word and went

      Degenerate? What’s that mean?

      Then they became absorbed with that word & brought it back from old man parlance into their common sayings with degenerate this & degenerate that. They couldn’t get enough of it.

      Believe me or not, point is it wasn’t always a dog whistle, it has been used to criticize the pieces of shit using it as a dog whistle for being that very thing they purport to oppose, and it still can be used that way. Nothing stops anyone else from claiming it back.

        point is it wasn’t always a dog whistle

        It was used to describe indigenous people of Africa and America to promote eugenics (at least to the 19th century).

        It was popularized by the Nazis as a specifically far right term, to describe anything that didnt meet Nazi ideals.

        When its used to discuss culture (art, religion, etc) or traits of a person (sexuality, race, gender expression, etc), its a really blatant dog whistle.

        Like everything, context matters, but it absolutely has been one for a very long time.

          It might be the constant defence of the PRC, the repeating of Russian propaganda on Ukraine, and simping for an instance that literally removes posts which point out genocide by fascist polities which are painted red, which cause people to correct identify you elsewise.

            Believe it or not, passing your online purity tests about geopolitics is not what makes someone an anarchist.

            Your use of ‘tankie’ is just ‘disagrees with me from the left’ and it’s been on full display.

              Yes, it is quite apparently that you regard playing apologist for fascist states performing genocide as completely in-line with anarchism, bizarre as it is. I guess ‘purity testing’ is ‘questioning whether simping for fascism is really compatible with anarchist thought’, especially considering that you openly support .ml’s removal of anything critical of fascist states.

              Your use of ‘tankie’ is just ‘disagrees with me from the left’ and it’s been on full display.

              Ah, so defending genocide is a leftist position now. It must be the People’s Genocide.

                  Dude explicitly doesn’t want to build anything outside the ballot box. In fact, he considers any alternative than capitalist liberal democracy as “fascism” and would support even violent paramilitary suppression of such. No matter what it is.

                  The argument here is literally about the Uyghur genocide, but nice try to whataboutism it around to your Americentric obsession.

                  I would never play apologist for the fascist states of America and their genocidal war on the Palestinian people, You were the one spending all your energy browbeating everyone expressing disgust with genocide Joe and bomber Harris.

                  I love how here you completely avoid the accusation in favor of whataboutism.

                  America is going down a very fascist path and supporting Israel’s genocide of Palestine. Sadly, you think that somehow justifies playing apologist for China going down a fascist path and genociding Uyghurs, or the genocide of Ukrainians.

                  I guess it’s GOOD genocide, unlike Israel’s BAD genocide!

                  Funny hearing lectures on “what anarchism is” from a social democrat who’s more interested in purity testing leftists on lemmy than building anything outside the ballot box.

                  Building parallel systems is something that I’ve repeatedly praised on here, but I understand that that’s inconvenient to your interest in attempting to paint me as trying to ‘purity test’ by insisting that genocide and fascism is Bad, Actually.

                  Keep licking boots, fascist, it’s all you’re capable of, apparently.

      It was pointed out that in that very fucking thread there was Holodomor and Uyghur genocide denial, which would make, by the same argument as the ‘Nazi bar’ accusations being leveled, DB0 a tankie bar.

    Copy pasting from a comment below

    @fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com explanation

    FYI goat, i downvoted the post you screenshotted because the person, @isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de, made this disgusting comment and got permabanned on LW + here for it. He’s a horrible person, which is why i downvoted his post. Not because of the content.

    I am not a tankie, not even hexbear/ml users consider me as such; I’ve also seen other stuff about me being a Soviet apologist (?) Which, no, from using the search feature, I have not it seems. Unless they’re including the time I was being nice to cowbee… ? Either way I personally do not have a positive opinion of the USSR but I really don’t want to get into that here.

    I have also had a conversation with cowbee themselves once where I told them I disagree with them with the USSR, China and Ukraine about a week ago, so no, I am not an apologist for the Soviet union.

    https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/21109507

    From @unruffled@anarchist.nexus

    To be clear, if I haven’t been already, I 100% condemn China’s actions towards the Uyghurs. Is it technically a genocide? Depends what definition you’re working with, but to my mind it meets the definition.

    https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/52160152/21075559

    On the other hand the single mod on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works seems quite ban happy lately, and resorting to debatable arguments

    My community is also bigger lol

    https://sh.itjust.works/comment/20731327

    And the amount of posts on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works by that same single mod is concerning. How many of those do they need make, reusing the same screenshot ad nauseam when Unruffled recognized that China’s actions towards the Uyghur meet the definition of a genocide (see comment above)?
