db0 explicitly allows hosting discussions about hurting people

Huh? Since when? Lol.

Don’t think DB0 as a whole ever allowed such a thing. We as an instance are heavily against hurting others (I mean we are against racism, hatred, Zionism, Nazism… you name it).

The discussion of Luigi is one that’s is actually needed to be had. The guy did something wrong, yes. But he had all the reasons for it. The industry hurts (and kills) thousands of people just for their profit. Just once they got the “favor” returned.

Anyway, I have no idea what that particular instance is. So won’t be missing it either.

What a weird stance to take when the internet is full of people talking about wishing death on the fat orange monkey and no one bats an eye but something obscure on this instance gets their panties in a bunch.

Uhh I'm fairly certain that Kirk isn't running interference for Patrick and ptz. All three are the same sad and pathetic guy, from what I understand.

It is always disappointing. Condoning violence is never acceptable. Unfortunately for us, news after new after news article, we see those who protest peaceful through speech have senseless violence imposed on them. They did not ask to be murdered.

The ones that asked, have 24/7 news coverage. But it's okay because they say "it's concerning".

So now that some guy had enough and imposes justice that the law could never give. Through his actions paid one life to save hundreds?

True, it shouldn't have come to that. True, the soulless husk in a thousand dollar tie should've been put to prison. But violence is the speech of the oppressed who see no other way to fight back.

It's just okay to kill through oppression, because it's "official", "legal" and "their fault".

Luigi is not a hero through the man he allegedly killed. He is a hero because he represents the fury of the people.

In our side, we welcome discussion on solving the problems that we hear about on a daily basis. But turning a blind eye while people are butchered right in the open will not help anyone.

As long as the Fediverse has human users there will be drama.

I ranted about this in another thread some, but I’m with startrek.website here.

I almost switched to db0 when I first found Lemmy.world and joined it; you guys seemed, ideologically, closest to me. I loved the vibe.

Communities about Anarchism, Generative AI, Copylefts, Neurodivergence, Filesharing, and Free Software. (And Math!) Follow the Anarchist Code of Conduct and honor the Disengage Rule. Don’t be shitty to each other. Keep it SFW. Obey the spirit of The Golden Rules. Fuck around and find out.

This is me. I love all of this.

…But holy hell.

The bar for calling for explicit violence is basically zero, as long as the target fits the instance’s views. And I’ve watched the admin come in and personally validate that policy in the threads in question.

I wouldn’t want to touch this instance, either.

Again, I’m otherwise sympathetic to everything about this instance, yet I think I’d vote for Lemmy.world to defederate from db0 if it ever comes up.

And I’m not here to debate how I’m apparently not antifascist enough, or shoot down accusations that I’m a pacifist, or whatever.

I’m sick that.

And I’m clearly not moving the needle here. I’m not trying to; do what you do. I just thought I’d provide a perspective of someone who was otherwise quite attracted to this community.

Bye, felicia

Lol at their comments, they won't even give evidence to back up their claims. Just bot-like responses.

I'm genuinely trying to think of the last time I saw a post from startrek.website and drawing a blank.

Not s big deal witht that very small very specific topic

db0 explicitly allows hosting discussions about hurting people

I mean if discussing how to defend yourself from capitalist / fasch / nazi opression counts as "hurting people", I guess we could take that as a badge of honour? We don't owe to our oppressors to put their welfare above ours!

Damn it's a tankie quadrad now

clearly startrek.website are fake fans. star trek plots are full of justified violence.

There are a lot of people questioning their decision. The admin refuses to provide proof.

Good riddens. 🤷‍♂️

I tried asking for examples and this was the response i got

They have a right to operate however they see fit, and we have strict rules about linking to other instances with the intent of shaming someone or influencing their policy. If you have questions about dbzer0's policies I recommend you take your questions to them.

Which is funny because now i see your post and you don't seem to know what you did and they refuse to share examples :/

Admiral "the cunt" Patrick shitting in his own pants again.

If you’re curious, the final straw here was learning that db0 explicitly allows hosting discussions about hurting people

I knew the story wouldn't end with him taking down his own instance. Either it was going to be brought back or he had another one.
