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.
You can’t be an anarchist and love facism this much. Its simply impossible.
What do you mean? Lots of anarchists dislike state sponsored executions, no matter who’s getting executed by the state.
Now if we’re talking about an assassin killing Hitler during WW2, then I’m on the assassin’s side.
What fascinating brainworms.
Let’s say I want to assassinate Hitler. Allied intelligence finds out about my plot and supplies me with information about Hitler’s whereabouts. They also send me a bunch of C-4 for me to use however I please. I then proceed to use the C-4 to blow up Hitler.
Do you approve or disapprove? If you approve, then how is that meaningfully different from the state simply sending an assassin? The fact that I’m not vetted or trained and might get cold feet, or blow someone else up? Or is it just that I’m not getting paid that makes the difference? What about if they give me a medal afterwards, if I accept, does that make it wrong?
Exactly how connected to the state do I have to be for killing Hitler to magically become immoral? Help me understand.
