(not sure if this is the right community, sorry)
Hi, someone posted this on another server. I’d like to request we defederate with rammy.site and exploding-heads.com as well. I scrolled through some of their posts and comments and it’s full of ridiculous anti-left propaganda, for example a post where some liberal Florida family fleeing the state when some child protection laws got passed, implying liberals abuse children and won’t live in a state that doesn’t allow them to. Just take a look for yourself.
" Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.
It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don’t believe me check the instance for yourself, you’ll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities."
Edit: So many commenters think this is about political opinions or disagreement. It’s not. If I said “Mixing bleach and ammonia is good for you” I bet some of you would call that a political disagreement.
It’s only bullshit if you’re naive about human nature and ignore the entire concept of memetics.
As an example, Flat Earthers exist, and are continually indoctrinated via a whole ecosystem of blogs, videos, and online communities.
You can take some of these flat earthers, once indoctrinated, show them clear experimental evidence to the contrary, and fail at convincing them the earth is round. With enough googling you can find videos of this on youtube, it’s quite amazing to watch the denial in action in the face of clear evidence.
As the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I’d rather just delete the flat earth videos than spend 20k and a weekend to launch a gopro into space to convince someone the earth is round, and still fail at convincing them because the gopro uses microchips from the globe-heads that manipulate the real flat-earth imagery into being round.
The futility is in trying to get the cat back in the bag.
