I’m with you on dunking on Nutomic for the transphobia and COVID denial, but if you think Rimu is to his left (especially if you’re citing his refusal to wear a mask as a red line; I admit I don’t know if Rimu is a plague rat, but you’re asking them to be correct about something very few people are correct about) get ready to be disappointed because there’s a high chance every single piece of software you use is written by people who have way worse opinions. And unlike Lemmy, Rimu actually puts their opinions into the code. Unless you know Rimu personally and know that they’re correct about everything…
I must confess that looking at MoG when it pops into my feed is my guilty pleasure. It’s always fun to compare the allegations of a post with the content of the modlog. That capra demon sure has the audience they deserve.
Speaking against “defense of an empire” is rich because they banned my blahaj account for pointing out that Germany is complicit in the palestinian genocide.
Nutomic’s transphobia and downplay of COVID are deplorable, but Rimu isn’t merely opinionated on memes and shitposts. Rimu is a rabid anti-communist, with deeply racist views justified internally by said anti-communism:
And justifying it with articles from far-right think-tanks like the McCain Institute:
These views are disgusting, and being an anti-communist is what leads Rimu to accept them more readily. Further, equating slur filters to things like PieFed’s social credit score system is apples to oranges, and defaults against communist instances that unsuspecting new admins wouldn’t think to check just further displays Rimu’s clear ideological opposition to Lemmy on the basis of Lemmy having a lot of communists.
I actually don’t understand what the fight they’re having in that chain about COVID in 2025. Are people still doing pandemic responses in other countries? I haven’t seen a single person wear a mask where I live in Sonora in 3 or 4 years, am I supposed to be the only one wearing a mask and implementing a population level public health measure on my own? I got the vaccine
People worldwide largely aren’t taking COVID precautions and that’s exactly the problem. Some people, mostly leftists, have continued to follow the science that says that even if you’re the only person masking up and getting your booster shots every year, you’re reducing the chance that you catch a disease that can permanently disable you and everyone you infect.
COVID still exists and still impacts people with the vaccine. Government mandates have been lifted, but masking is the correct decision, at minimum in large public gatherings.

And pedophilia apology, I forgot that one initially (was bookmarked on an account which I thought I had deleted). This shithead doesn’t reflect well on Dessalines.
And about the rest… Damn, even in isolation it’s complete bullshit. Wouldn’t have thought that someone whose server displays a “Rational Discourse Toolkit” insert would have fallen for that.
So, back to Mbin it is. You don’t have dirt on Melroy now, do you 😓 ?
That comment is deleted, did you actually read it? If you check the modlog you will see that I didnt defend CSAM at all, but was only defending another user. Just to make it clear for you, I am against pedophilia. Its honestly impressive, you dont know me at all you try to paint me as some kind of evil supervillain over a few misinterpreted comments.
wee woo wee wooo wee wooo liberal thought police here you have been accused of WRONGTHINK. Everything you do and say is WRONG. I am the ADULT in the room. It is now our duty to harass and follow you around
Have fun talking to my blocklist loser, sick of the bullshit, the thought police and dipshits. Getting followed around by you fucking MoG morons made it so I just shit post and don’t engage further. Having people pretend to be my friend only to make a bunch of alts to manipulate me changed my feelings on the platform and what people like you are actually about.
Fuck you, take your anime reactions and shove them.
You bet your ass I read it: I was there when you made a joke of yourself, splitting hairs about what constitutes CSAM, and “”“defending”“” that other shithead by pointing at the level of melanin in his skin. If that’s defending someone, by that metric talking about “biological men in women’s sport” must have been a defense of trans women, huh?
By the way, take Castro off your pfp. He was able to own up to his mistakes, and Cuba is now a model to follow in terms of LGBTQ+ rights. You’re an embarrassment to his legacy.
Lol the person who posted their support for Iranian color revolution is now telling others to learn from their mistakes. How are Lybia and Syria doing buddy?
I don’t have any dirt on Melroy, no, but I’d say just use Lemmy. For all of Nutomic’s personal faults, unlike PieFed they don’t make it to the code, and you can spin up or join an instance entirely unaffiliated with Nutomic if you wish. Most Lemmy.ml users find Nutomic’s views deplorable too, most of us are communists.
I know, I’ve been on lemmy for the past 6 years. But I can’t just overlook that swollen pimple and still use the sofware while there’s alternatives that are maintained by people who, to my knowledge, don’t have such disgusting views.
You might have misunderstood what I was getting at 😅. I wasn’t thinking about servers or admins, but about the person/people behind the project. That’s whose views I can’t overlook.
I’m aware. As far as I know, Dessalines does not share those views at all, nor do the other contributors to Lemmy. Rimu is the lead developer of PieFed, and the largest PieFed instances are generally ones that align more closely with Lemmy.world style views, ie anti-communism and liberal Zionism.

I sure hope so! The problem is, even though anti-bigotry is a part of Lemmy’s code of conduct, and the first rule of Lemmy.ml, he never addressed the noisiest of the issues with Nutomic, i.e., his transphobia…

To be fair, since the grand Reddit exodus, it’s the same on Lemmy if you exclude the troika (like damn, people, stop with the “triad” shit! “Troika” is just the superior term).
Now censor me so I can go post in YPTB.

NGL this is the saddest shit I’ve read all week
Was gonna say MoG at first, but thought it was too transparent 🤷♀️
Posting to MoG would be worse, at least yptb is occasionally pretty useful, and MoG is run by a zionist.
I must confess that looking at MoG when it pops into my feed is my guilty pleasure. It’s always fun to compare the allegations of a post with the content of the modlog. That capra demon sure has the audience they deserve.
Fair. A fun recent one was EmoPunker’s post about me, where they cut off the conclusion: they had claimed Pol Pot defenders were “genuine socialists,” presumably out of fear of looking bad to their fellow social fascists.
Speaking against “defense of an empire” is rich because they banned my blahaj account for pointing out that Germany is complicit in the palestinian genocide.
Sounds about right for that crowd.

It was never mandated here so I guess people never started

You weren’t always such a shithead. What happened since VTC?

Smug yanks always know better. The darker the skin of a country’s inhabitants, the more yanks know.

I’m not certain about Melroy, so I can’t say, but Lemmy itself does not have those views, nor does every instance (in fact, most do not).
