Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

PieFed has done it once again, this time adding 'warning' labels for opposing ideological perspectives, well at least one; Can't find any warnings for fascism or capitalism ๐Ÿค”

Are we supposed to bring back the whole history every time Rimu comments anywhere?

  • an anarchist.nexus admin calls for murder of Zionists in their username
  • a LW admin and Rimu gets qualified as Zionists in dbzer0 community modlogs
  • LW defederates anarchist.nexus
  • Rimu bans that admin
  • that anarchist.nexus admin changes their username and steps down as admin
  • LW refederates anarchist.nexus
  • Rimu asks the dbzer0 staff to act on the modlog calling him a Zionist, no action is taken, the dbzer0 staff advices him to ignore that
  • Rimu discovers that a dbzer0 mod has been using a LLM for moderation. That mod has been somehow pretending to use OpenAI to upset the !fuckai crowd, actually it was a local freeware model. He posts about it.
  • a dbzer0 admin reverts the ban calling Rimu a Zionist after I asked
  • Rimu is still upset, doesn't take the previous action into account and keeps the post about LLM moderation up
  • You bring it up here

Now, listen, db0: we've discussed a lot in the past, you know I like what you do, I support you and your instance most of the time. But that's also true for Rimu and Piefed. I think it's pointless to try to count points and see who was wrong when by how much. From my perspective, there were issues from all sides during that whole story.

Bringing it up every time anyone involved comments somewhere doesn't seem relevant, and will just start another round of "you were wrong", "I was wrong because you were wrong" etc. It can be endless, and most of the people are tired of that whole story.

Take care.

Yes, it's very important to remind people what sort of a troll Rimu really is.

You think defederating because they call for death upon Zionists is a win?

Also:

We have bent over backwards to de-escalate the situation, both with L.W. and with Rimu. Our admins have stepped down. People changed their usernames. Our admins overruled our mods. Literally creating tension within our instance to maintain relations with the larger fediverse. On the other hand, rimu's deliberate disinfo is still up to this day, without any statements from our team, or correction to their blatant lies. They've even blocked people calling them out, so piefed users can't see this criticism. So don't try to "both sides" me.

Stop making concessions to them
