More posts discussing the fallout:

Dbzer0 admin claiming Uyghur genocide is ‘overblown and misrepresented’

Dbzer0 admin casually defending Uyghur genocide denial because “libs worse”, yikes

Banned from meanwhileongrad for “No db0 allowed”.

On Dbzer0, ‘harassing mods’ is when you criticize the top admin of .ml for responding to a Wiki link with a Lemmy search

Does lemmy.ml own db0? db0 denies the Uyghur genocide, begins to backtrack that maybe there are human rights abuses, and then immediately backs off as soon as lemmy.ml admin, Davel, steps in.

Tankie bar, db0, will remove your comments and ban you if you criticise lemmy.ml admin, Davel, for denying the Uyghur genocide

When the tankie bar, db0, is pushed about communists purging peasants, Davels swoops in with dehumanisation. Also, if you bring up the Holodomor then you’re a nazi.

Removed false allegations against goat from a post on db0

An anarchist tankie did a write-up of the constant use of ‘degenerate’ as an insult specifically in the MoG comm

Another anarchist tankie did a write-up of the situation

    We were expecting it as well to happen at some point. There was no love lost between us and the libs during the US election period, and there’s always been a lot of peeps hating us for our principled stances on copyrights, electoralism and “left unity”. I think it was a bit of an assumption on your part to think that just because we were arguing some times with campists, we weren’t also arguing with turbolibs.

    Funnily PJ did show his hand, by claiming out that he has anarchists that he gets along with. And then pointed out to people who just discovered anarchism less 1 year ago. Funny how further radicalism pushes people away from liberalism, innit? :D

      I didn’t mean you should be surprised, I figured most of y’all expected it too. This is more for those on your site that are big fans of MWoG despite it being a Nazi bar (won’t get into names, not interested in that, and it isn’t a majority of your users, maybe a handful), as well as those on the more liberal instances that align with PJ’s “left” anti-leftism, ie Lemmy.world.

      I agree with your general stances on copyrights and electoralism, and am not trying to get into an argument about “campism.” I just think in this particular moment as leftists we are both aligned, and can at least appreciate that aspect. I know we have our disagreements, but that’s not something I want to get into now, I’m just having a bit of fun with people turning on MWoG, PJ, and Goat.

      Edit: Yes, I saw that anarchist claim! PJ also claims to know more about Marxism than me, which, I think even with your disagreements with me we can both agree that that’s absurd. I’m no expert, of course, but I think I can humbly accept that I’ve put in the effort to know what I talk about in that regard.

        PJ scorching the earth and we’re sitting on the side popping popcorn on the fire looking at each other like ‘wat’ :D

          Yep, exactly! I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel a bit bad for PJ, they seem to be crashing out more and more lately. They’re still wrong, of course, but unlike Goat PJ at least seems like they have the potential to change their views in the future instead of remaining a permanent radlib. I’m only really saying this because I’m pretty sure PJ has me blocked, lol.

        I don’t think this is going the way you’re hoping it would. I’m actually seeing an increase in support

      “Showing your hand is when someone asks you to name one (1) anarchist you speak to, and you do, musing that you could name more and that the question was pretty fucking stupid”
