Rules
- Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
- When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
- The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.
The usual instance-wide rules also apply.
Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

The last one? I'm fairly certain it was in relation to this meme that I found on the .ml memes comm and crossposted that they also removed

If the bigger instances won't defed from the remaining of the Tankie Triad (.ml in this case hex and grad are commonly defed'd from already) I think it's important to at least ensure that new users can see that there is loud opposition on lemmy to their Authoritarian ideologies and that Lemmy != A bunch of tankies
I find it really surprising that there are a lot of ppl with authoritarian ideologies on one of the most free platform that is controlled by normal people and not some corporation. I'm not gonna block them then, I want ppl to know that lemmy is not only about communist propoganda
Why would someone reply with

Ah, I see the confusion, my first 2 screenshots are of the post and then the paired modlog entry together
The last screenshot of "Fuck Russia" is an independent third one, but because they (.ml mods) also removed the post I can't pull up the original that was on the .ml meme comm any more, my link is to a crossposted version. Their comment was in reply to that meme.
I edited the post to hopefully clarify that a bit more
