Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.

That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.

Anyone have any word on what's up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?

**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee "It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required")

Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it's not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.

Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.

Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.

Don't let them silence you, guys. We should just move--not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.

EDIT: I'm not defending Nazi's or Nazi salutes. I didn't see the post and I haven't seen any describe it other than "it was a Nazi salute!" Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?

Nobody has a problem with Conservatism, it's the people actively supporting Nazis that don't deserve a place. You didn't vote for someone that's currently supporting nazis, by any chance, did you?

So are you saying over half of America actively supports Nazis? Cuz Trump won. And if you couldn't win against a "nazi supporter" what does that say about the Democratic party?

Yes.

I mean, have you heard of 1930s Germany? Do you think it's somehow impossible for a large portion of a nation (not half as you suggested) to be misled and manipulated into something horrible? Because it has literally happened before. All you really need is for a populist with no moral compass to take advantage of desperate people by playing to their hate and fear. Enter Donald Trump.

Cool. So again, are you saying over half of America supports Nazis and Fascists? So are you saying that America is a majority Nazi country?

Yes or no?

So again, are you saying over half of America supports Nazis and Fascists?

Again, it's not over half. I'm not sure how you're getting that figure. I think you assume that since slightly over half of VOTING Americans voted for Trump, that it somehow means over half of ALL AMERICANS voted for him, which isn't true.

And yes, over half of VOTING AMERICANS voted to support literal Nazis and fascists. This has happened before in history. I'm not sure why you don't understand that other than lacking a suitable education.

Of course I mean voting americans in this context. Come on, man... Do you think that I think people under 18 voted?!

So you all lost to Nazi's and fascists. So what does that say about the Democrat party if you couldn't even win against them?

No. You said "half of Americans". Words matter. Not to people who don't know how to use them, such as yourself, but to anyone with even a halfway decent education.

So you all lost to Nazi’s and fascists. So what does that say about the Democrat party if you couldn’t even win against them?

Yeah. It's really alarming that uneducated individuals such as yourself are elevating fascism in America under the guise of "patriotism". My concern isn't with the Democrat party. My concern is the overwhelming number of uneducated individuals such as yourself that are allowing fascism to take hold.

A supporter of fascism such as yourself pointing at the Democrat party and asking what's wrong with them doesn't change that you support fascism in America.

You guys lost and you're pissed. But maybe you should look at the real reason you all failed. You lost to Trump of all people! lmao
