I'll try to summarise from memory and my knowledge from a couple of posts, but details might be wrong since I've not done a deep dive into this. I'm not going to go looking for links and references, because who has the time?
There was a frontend for Lemmy called Tesseract (a frontend is a different interface for the Lemmy site. For example, I use Alexandtrie and think this is the best interface in browser if you want to see what a frontend looks like). Anyway, it came to light that the dev for Tesseract had covertly added a blacklist to the frontend. He then wrote a long rant about how there's propoganda and unpleasantness on Lemmy and he's trying to protect his users from this. In reality he basically described how he wants to block anyone who isn't agreeable with his opinion, expresses leftist opinions, supports LGBTQ+ rights, etc. So people have taken it as a badge of honour in being on the list and are making it a mockery of Tesseract. The dev has taken down the Github page for Tesseract (although I think someone forked it first and removed the blacklist). So now people are flooding Lemmy with memes about being on the list and hating on Tesseract. It's all fun and games, but as with all things with social media trends, it will likely start getting boring as you come across a lot of this on your feed.
I’m on the list and the only “propaganda” I’ve spread is a willingness to end fascist lives, which hardly seems controversial to me. I mean, typically you shoot fascists, don’t you?
Depends what you define as fascist? Who's the judge here? In the pre-elon twitter times people would call everything nazi/fascist that didn't match their opinion. Basically you are threatening to murder people for... opinions? Coming from a place without death penalty this is indeed concerning. Especially when targeted at a certain person. TBH be happy you got banned and not jailed.
A fascist is a fascist, such a weird argument to have. Why do you have trouble identifying fascists? Pretty suspicious honestly.
‘It’s normal to throw people in jail for being willing to kill a fascist before they’ve done anything’ is really wild. That actually happens where you are? Someone just says they’d kill a fascist and they get locked up?
well now im disappointed that im not on that list
You take that back. Beans and jeans with never not be funny
Edit: beans like four posts down my homepage, love to fucking see it
