I should have used the word society instead of state.
Sure, but I think you’re both missing why I brought up the political compass, to make a distinction between libertarian leftism, and authoritarian leftism.
It does appear that way, and there are some cases of it happening, but doesn’t servers blocking hexbear solve the problem of people complaining about it, for people on hexbear?
lemmy.zip is good.
In a neoliberal sense, kinda, but those are really just shifting who is oppressing people to capitalists.
Would you call communist states (an oxymoron, I know) instruments of class opression?
All governments are authoritiarian, but to what extent?
I more-meant the difference between the libertarian and authoritarian right/left, its a useful distinction to have.
Auth-right would be fascism.
I wanted to point out that, even though they are authoritarian, they are still leftist. The Political Compass adds a bit of nuance, so there can be a distinction.
Yeah, lemmy.zip is great.
Shit on the political compass all you want, it does help bring a bit of nuance into discussions like this:
isn’t the entire point of a federated platform that you’re going to be able to access other instances?
Yes, but the point isn’t to connect to every instance.
Curated instances and smaller networks within the fediverse were always thought of.
https://lemmy.zip/ has a similar federation policy, they have hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml user-blocked by default, but this can be disabled.
join-lemmy.org/ has a list of instances.
They only block lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works, and a few small servers.
Its honestly a really pleasant place to be – I see no negativity there.
https://lemmy.zip/ is the closest imo.
I see a few people recommending lemmygrad, lemmy.ml and hexbear, I don’t really think you’d enjoy those servers too much unless you are interested in leftism/communism.
2·2 days agoAll the images disappear, since they are just links on remote instances.
A copy of all the accounts, comms, posts and comments stay on any instance around to recive them, but they are not fetchable.
Because of federation, that doesn’t matter.
I typically recommend those users other instances which don’t federate with hexbear.
