In that same period, Bartkus’ rhetoric on alternative social media sites was dark. “I would not acknowledge reproduction as a human right, but instead as a form of rape,” IndictEvolution wrote on Lemmy.World in July 2023. “I am also not bothered by infanticide as long as it is done humanely…”

    I do find it odd that lemmy’s first major insident isn’t from .ml or any other Tankie instance, it’s .world.

    Does speak to the mismanagement of the moderation…

    Keep in mind that Lemmy.world has almost the same amount of monthly active users as the top 7 other Lemmy instances combined (according to FediDB). It’s statistically very likely that they’re from there.

      Correct, but for an instance that tried to stop posts about Luigi, has wanted people to “Debate” flat world and transphobia, they just didn’t do anything with the communities that lead to this attempted attack.

      Meanwhile I know people who proved a mod wrong and got banned, and the mod hasn’t been punished.

      Yeah. It’s kind of like saying you’re suprised rape happens more often in India than Iceland. (population differences distort probabilities).
