To be a little more precise, it’s not that Lemmy “defends Nazis”, it’s that some of the mods on lemmy.world (and possibly the admins of lemmy.world) take a ridiculously extreme view of the rules on not condoning violence. According to some of these mods, even saying “[blank] should be punched” is against the rules, no matter what the [blank] is.
It’s one of the reasons a lot of people recommend avoiding lemmy.world when possible, and sticking to more niche instances like sh.itjust.works, Blahaj, and the various national instances.
100% true. Banned because I said all Nazis need to be punched or put in the ground…Nazis…
Fuck Reddit.
Plenty of mods here on Lemmy who’ll do the same…
Mainly on your home instance, too.
Then Lemmy will be in the same boat, and I’ll gladly take my leave. Anywhere that defends Nazis is just a Nazis hangout.
