I really hope this is just to appease Trump and get on his good side and he doesn't actually go and attack trans rights

Not an expert, but isn't the argentinian president an ultra-liberal? (liberal as the world-definition, not the US-definition)

Could this just be to appease Trump?

just checked if I can see piracy on lemmy.world and yes you're correct. Though it seems only the db0 instance was banned in particular weirdly.

I still stand by point 1 though. Hexbear as an instance has been profile-blocked by me.

I am on your side, but:

You do realize that can totally go the other way, right?

The AFD implements a "ministry of crime-prevention" that surveils the public and squashes political discent. Names don't necessarily reflect what's actually happening. You should argue with actual policies they did.

but they write the jokes themselves?

1. blocking hexbear is a good idea
2. world unblocked priacy instances over a year ago with the notable exception of the db0 instance
