Admin team of LGBTQIA.Social Mastodon instance received abuse email from Russian censorship agency, where they demanded to remove an account. The account in question represented a small group that ran a collaborative blog for LGBTQIA youth and adults in Russia.

Shortly after refusal to comply with agency's demands, the instance was blocked and is now unreachable from Russia.

All previous blocks of Fediverse instaces in Russia were related to hosting CSAM.

They don't, you've fallen for anti-communist disinfo

This is on .ml, so I'm sure we'll see some of it shortly. Or this post disappears out of a window.

The next step of evolution from "leave the multi billion company alone"

If people defend Nintendo when they shut down yuzu you will definitely find a few idiots that will worship a government of any kind

They don't. I cringe when people lie about Hexbear.

That's the different kind of lefties. I am talking about tankies that think that Russia and China are socialist states that fight the big imperialist
