Ask Lemmygrad

Hello Lemmians:

Lemmy, Mastodon and specially Lemmygrad are oceans of peace (mostly) because fashy smartpants, botlikers and stomtroopers get b& like a boss.

You may have heard of ForoCoches (a better name would be ForoFachas). Despite its old bulletin board style, it attracts hell of a lot of traffic in the Spanish language. According to metrics, it is THE biggest forum in Spanish.

The problem? It has been utterly corrupted by fascists and nazis since 10+ years. Go take a peek, the meekest thread in General goes like "we'll put Pedro Sánchez and the feminists against the wall at minute 0 of Civil War 2", and "who do you prefer, a Charo (= Karen) or an Austrian Painter?"

Well, it's utter shit to be honest. Only good for shitposting, but even that gets tiresome.

Now, let's talk about the model this shithole and similar spaces follow. Basically you pay to get an account, which can be banned and then you pay again for a 2nd account. Then there's the ads. So it's a bunch of rich technobros living off the hate.

Sounds familiar? Yes, it's the same shit on X.

Let me apply a bit of Lenin here. The left needs to own the means of production. When applied to the means of communication, this is why I support Canal Red. But we also need internet commons such as spaces like Masto or Lemmy. We also need to own the memes of production ;) So this is also why I support Lemmy since I created an account here 2 months ago or so.

The actual question

Wtf can one do to remedy the situation? Persuade people, open instances...? I believe we absolutely need something like Lemmygrad but in Spanish and meme the fash out of existence (also using tools other than memes ofc). Or maybe there's some mythical leftist space in Spanish I've never heard of.

EDIT: In case I'm not being clear: we need politized, militant internet hangouts.

EDIT 2: As always thanks for the replies! :)
