Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We’re currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.

    Luminous is no longer an admin,

    The other admins were aware of them and their rhetoric, have no problem with it, and are defending them.

    So, if the LW team are not Zionists, I don’t see why they shouldn’t just come out and say so, but then I guess I don’t see any other reason why someone would take a “death to Zionists” tagline personally.

    One shouldn’t respond to trolls. And that’s what these people ultimately are. My god, every time someone called a mod a Nazi or whatever, all the mods would ever get done would be clarifying “No, I’m not a Nazi”. Basically DDoS-ing them with witch hunts and immature name calling.
