They're welcome to it.

As far as I'm concerned, this is the entire benefit of lemmy/piefed/etc... They can have their space, and any other instance can choose not to federate with them so we aren't forced to listen to them, unlike the alternative, where an algorithm forces them into everyone's face.

Rather than telling them they don't have the right to speak, we simply have the ability to shut our window and not listen to them.

Let them bitch at each other.

I hate how maga people call themselves patriots. They are the most unamerican people ever. Everything they stand for is in direct opposition to the America ideals.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 26 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (9 children)

They are so immersed in the Conservative Propaganda Machine that they are literally living in an alternative reality from 2/3 of America, and the entire rest of the planet. They have created all these imaginary enemies attacking them on every front, and they think THEY are the ones living real life, and the rest of us side with their imaginary enemy.

And for some reason, the "intelligent" people that we have elected to protect us from such silliness, has decided to pretend that the MAGA nonsense, treason, and corruption, should be respected, and indulged.

Beware of what? It's no different than any other instance and capable of being subscribed to, scrolled past or blocked.

Stop advertising for them and let them have their federated echo chamber, just like the communists, socialists, leftists and others have.

it's kinda funny though

100% a parody instance: https://maga.place/post/2245?scrollToComments=true

Even mention Epstein+Trump like that would be a site-wide shadowban posted on /r/conservative.

It's good though. It's plausibly pro trump.

damn, i gotta check out that place later. i wonder how MAGA will interact with the fediverse. like, how can you be anarchistic and bootlicking at the same time?


edit: this is hilarious.

bootlicking: check ✅️

"especially towards Americans"

well, at least this one i can understand. Now i have to think about What the Turtle said to Achill, somehow.


this gotta be a troll account. Why is there an "antifa" community on the https://maga.place/ instance?

[–] hazl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 29 points 5 days ago

Rule 2 seems to negate most of the defining characteristics of the MAGA movement, no?

I've always wondered why conservatives insist on coming to the fediverse when conventional networks are more appealing to them and their ideals nowadays. Or is that still not enough?

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 138 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Ideals don’t matter to them, what matters is spreading their propaganda far and wide.

[–] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 75 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Bingo. These are the same people who will say that most political violence comes from the left while removing a study showing the opposite: a study about a statistical trend that has been well known and documented for longer than I've been alive.

They don't care. Their beliefs shape shift to fit whatever is most expedient in the moment. They will openly lie to your face, without even trying to hide that it's a lie while they smile and say they're being honest. The people who gaslit the nation about project 2025 only to have cabinet members gleeposting about implementing it on social media.

Truth is irrelevant and reality is an inconvenience. Hypocrisy is as dead to them as the corpse of civility they prop up whenever it suits their narrative.

When I was a conservative piece of shit, in my younger days, I had the most outlandish bumper stickers you can imagine. Probably more outlandish than you can imagine, actually, 99.9% likelihood. There were quite a few. I knew I was being an ass and I loved when it offended people, because I was miserable. Someone was paying attention to me. I was getting a reaction. I existed! Anyway, yeah, it can be as simple as "they get off on ruining your day cuz they're miserable pieces of shit." Speaking from experience.

Same reason why tankies don't just move to China, or why some Canadians had Trump bumperstickers: the point is to take over and wield authority as a weapon. Of course they try to invade and pollute every space they can and muddy waters wherever possible.

Hot take (?):

It's fantastic that there is a branch of MAGA who hates the corporate Internet as much as we do.

safe from the madness and censorship of the fediverse.

Sounds like they explicitly don't want to federate. Unless it's a parody site, I guess.

I’ve noticed a significant uptick in rightist trolls on the fediverse since the devil called Charlie Kirk home. Absolutely nowhere is safe from fascist infiltration for long. Hopefully the half decent instances defederate from those cesspits en masse.

I can't believe there's this many people talking about an instance with one user.

Why would they not just stay on Twitter, Truth Social, reddit or Facebook? Those places are tailor-made for MAGA 🤔

I sometimes forget just how many tyrants use this platform.

The very purpose of the fediverse is to make censorship impossible as it's decentralized, open source, and easily accessible to all. Meaning that anyone, anywhere can utilize these tools to launch their own platform on their own terms without fear of being censored. This applies to everyone, not just some.

The very existence of this instance, which is clearly just a parody, is enough to send a good chunk of the freedom lovers here to quickly take the mask off and turn into Mao where they want to take down the instance, infiltrate it, and censor it. The fact they can't is proof that fediverse is working as intended. I, for one, welcome people from all over to use the fediverse. Having a social media that's controlled by the people instead of corporations is a big plus for me.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Most people here strongly seem like they wanted a more leftist Reddit.

Bluesky as well, but for X.

The concept of an entirely new ecosystem, free of authoritarian control, escapes people.

Of course we do not all have to federate with one another and share content, but to infiltrate and deny their existence entirely... is just another form of control. The accusation becomes revealed as a confession, now where have I heard that before...?

At some point the division becomes not Left vs. Right but extremist vs. non. Though I admit to lacking a fully matured understanding there as to whether that is justified or not, it's just that I am saying that this distinction exists.

good thing they want to be free from the fediverse, because the fediverse should definitely be free from this shit.

defederate fascists.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 29 points 6 days ago (49 children)

Okay, and? The whole point of the fediverse is that everyone gets a voice. It's good to see more people adopting it too, even conservatives. It'll be less of an echo chamber that way.

[–] stabby_cicada@slrpnk.net 16 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

There are more comments in this thread alone than this MAGA site will probably ever host. (Trolls and spammers motivated by this thread don't count 😆 )

And honestly? The biggest takeaway from these comments is how many users don't understand the difference between a protocol and a platform.
