Here's the thing though, you'll be unable to convince us that .ml aren't stupid shitheads because we're here too, we see them too, we talk to them too and share in the experience just like you do, some (like me) going on 3y+ now. You can't fool us because we experience it firsthand, you can only succeed in convincing us that you don't see the problem because you're one of "the problem."
I always aspired to be a problem. But see you have no justification for this statement. You are just lumping together everyone who shares a lemmy.ml address without an iota of data other than your personal impressions. This is just plain lamentable.
Having said that, I hold extreme views right enough, since I don't think there is such a thing as a middle ground to fascism. Do you see my 100% no-pasaran as a problem? And if yes, how low are you willing to stoop before setting your priorities right?
To borrow a quote from Kolank in this very thread:
.ml is that T-shirt. I hope you get the help you need.
It started as a meme but this ml-hatred is a conspiracy cult at this point. I have no interest in defending no Stalinist or whatever, but I will not succumb to this false logic of judging people for signing up to the flagship instance, home to major Linux, Open Source, and Privacy communities.
In fact, I think spooks and trolls spreading disinformation under privacy and anonymity questions is a greater problem than the spectre of the bad ml/grad/hexbear user. Now, you folks are adamant that the instance someone signed-up for, often blithely, can accurately judge their character.
This is superficial and moronic and you only come up with ad hominem responses for me pointing out that your logic is abysmal. Plus, it might really hurt to admit you are wrong, since shitting on the flagship instance seems to be an unhealthy obsession for you people.
Ok buddy, have fun at your Nazbol bar, I'm not trying to stop you, you just can't be surprised you get treated like one if you advertise their instance, it's only natural. Again it's not just "some users" there, it's "most users including the mods and backed by the admins."
