Some communities there are literally calling for the annihilation of Ukraine

https://programming.dev/comment/1999097

edit: Since people are either willfully or otherwose are missing my point, this is a pro-russia, pro-fascist hate group, therefore we shouldn't give them the platform to spread their shit. this is not about me seeing their community or then causing issues accross other communities, it's about de-platforming fascists.

so what does it help if I block it? I can block it out, that doesn't solve anything, it will still be there.

They'll still be there even if defederated.

but not accessible from this instance.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean, I guess I can't argue with that.

I mean, I have no idea why you are arguing in the first place, you are basically arguing against the de-platforming of fascists.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You were able to discern all that from me clarifying that they'd still exist even if your instance members didn't see them?

is this elementary school math? do I need to show my work here?

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 2 years ago

Clearly, because my comment was made not being sure you knew what defederation entailed. Then I agreed with you, and you're still frothing.

Some of their stuff finally hit my feed. I’ve blocked them on my instance. I take what I said back.

I mean, even if programming.dev defederates with it, it'll still be there...

[–] kameecoding@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

one less platform to spread
