      Wouldn’t they just move to whatever the new Community is? I think you either need to convince your instance to defederate, join something like Beehaw, or create your own instance if you don’t want to see those comments.

        The world news sub on .world doesn’t have this issue, probably because the mods deal with genocide deniers there. It’s good to remember .ml has been here since the beginning and most of the /c/'s here were created when basically a majority of users were tankies

      Yes. Denigrating a group of men taken as prisoners of war is a great comparison to executing them. They are obviously the same things and are expressly valid excuses from war crimes.

    Yes, American soldiers would never do such things. They are distributing bananas and chocolate during war times to POW, have a lot of occasions to do so during the last decades.

      What do American soldiers have to do with this? That is not even a good whataboutism.
