Due to a (now former) admin of the instance anarchist.nexus calling for a member of our team, as well as anyone else they call a zionist, to be murdered, the instance has been defederated.

We’re currently discussing how we will proceed with this situation and whether it will affect lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is mostly run by the same admin team, notably excluding the person who used to be on the anarchist.nexus admin team.

We will share further updates once we have them.


Update 2026-04-22 23:25 UTC: anarchist.nexus federation has been reactivated.

We are still discussing this matter, but there is currently no point in keeping anarchist.nexus defederated while lemmy.dbzer0.com is federated.

    My grandma’s a zionist. She’s a little old lady who lives in Australia. She’s not Jewish, she’s a Christian. But she’s fallen for the propaganda that says the holy land is owed to Jewish people. She’s gone for a holiday in Israel a few times because the place is important to her faith. But she’s disappointed in Israel for its war crimes in recent years, the same as most people. She wants peace, she just hasn’t realised that Israel is fundamentally anti-peace. She might get there one day.

    I don’t think grandma deserves to die. The only thing she’s done wrong is give Israel’s economy a few thousand tourism dollars. That’s bad, but it’s not death penalty bad. I want grandma to live.

    I don’t know if defederation is an appropriate response, I haven’t made up My mind. But I do know that Luminous is harming the Palestinian cause by giving Netanyahu the violent rhetoric he wants people to hear from his enemies. Netanyahu wants his enemies to look like terrorists. Luminous looks like a terrorist. I want us to look like we’re interested in stopping the killing.

      the ‘anarchist anti-realist’ is extremely invested in liberal moralizing and tone policing

      whenever zionism comes up the anti-realism goes out the window and is replaced with moral realism

      absolute farce of an account
