Lemmy.ml continues to allow misinfo/propaganda sites "articles" so long as it's anti-west aligned while removing good credible news sources. Instances that federate with them help their spread

This is what the admins of .ml cultivate, as documented in the megathread
Credible sources removed just within the last day: https://lemmy.world/post/32298242 https://lemmy.world/post/32426343
.ml is not much different than the rest of the Triad, continued federation with them is continuing to allow them to spread toxic misinformation and behavior across the Threadiverse.
If you're an instance admin, please consider defederation.
Users, consider joining the lemmy.ml boycott today and help foster a better Lemmy-verse! No more posts, comments (except to counter their propaganda ofc!) or upvotes on any comms on the Lemmy.ml instance.
Other wonderful content, and this is just from when I looked at the local new feed a bit ago:
Classic RT I'm sure you all know and Pravda.ru "Pravda Report"
PLEASE defederate from the tankies. They should have to suffer through engaging with the real world if they want to engage with all of Lemmy, and not have a whole damn instance astroturfing their propaganda to everyone else.
Yes, it is that bad. They literally ban and block anyone who says Russia/China bad, even for wholly valid and factual reasons.
Defeferate from the rabid zionist neolibs first. Theyre just as bad and shit is overcentralized on their .world server, so yhry can use it as a shield.
Edit: and now that public opinion is seriously turning on both things, theyre trying to get people to defed the next largest server. Correct me if im wrong about size rankings.
I sort by new and there are not a whole lot of posts on lemmy every day, but if this is bothering you that much I would recommend blocking the instance. The posts you are showing of this user aren't even popular and get heavily downvoted.
Instance blocks are nothing more than a comm mute, even if it worked as one would expect, it does nothing to stop them from spreading their toxic misinformation and propaganda to unknowing new users.
And downvoting to oblivion is not something to be relied upon, IME only obvious ones get downvoted like RT or ones with headlines like "UKRAINE WILL FAIL SOON SUPERIOR RUSSIA..."
Subtler disinformation, from lesser known sources, can still end up with positive upvotes and is just as dangerous
I agree in the abstract but i can't take this seriously from a .world user.
Youre on the zionist bluemaga server. Ive seen all the bad behavior from .ml shit heads fron you, plus things are overcentralized with you.
Piefed has actual instance blocking, you might want to give it a try https://piefed.social/
A voice of reason drowned out by a red scare.
Here we cherry pick unpopular posts and gripe about pro-west news censored. But I think it would be also fun to cherry pick some pro genocide from world, posts that are unpopular too, and gripe about how Chinese news is censored.
Double the fun! Yes?
Lotta .world's pushing to defed .ml recently.
Its really sudden. And i fucking hate those people. And yeah; .world is saturated with zionists, bluemaga. They really are in a glass house, relying on overcentralization to shield them.
Isn't .ml the next largest instance?
This irony is pretty thick. OP is crying about propaganda while promoting overt imperial propaganda (radio free europe, etc.). Libs and tankies are the same damn thing with different imperial branding. That's all that this is.
Radio Free [Region] is a perfectly credible news source that does a fair job of minimizing bias
In any case, bias != Mis/Disinformation. They're vastly different beasts. One just tries to subtly write things in a way that makes the reader favor their position the other is just straight lies and made up conspiracy theories to force a certain narrative among the populace
Dude, we arent shitlibs. World can defed from the next largest instance if it wants, but we see what you're up to.
Now that your size is no longer working to shield your server's support of genocidal zionist terrorism and insane bluemaga bullshit, you're working agInst the next largest server, which is only like 60% less vicious and bullshit (not praise for the tankies here) but differently aligned.
