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.
the democrats held a farce of a primary in 2024. my own turbo-zionist rep ran unopposed and all the people voting ‘uncommitted’ were actively ignored at the federal level
sabara is dog vomit and i generally buy greek or lebanese tahini around here
Why didn’t you run against or support someone else to run against own turbo-zionist rep who went unopposed?
That’s not a sign of a broken system; that’s unfortunately a sign of good people doing nothing – which is what I’m advocating for here. Sitting out only lets evil run rampant.
Agreed on the hummus.
yeah let me just conjure shitloads of money i don’t have to run against a hostile party within their own apparatus instead of my day job. very reasonable suggestion.
the system is beyond broken, blaming that on individuals does nothing but make you feel better
also one of your earlier responses was extremely off-putting. you called armed resistance to occupation ‘legitimate war crimes’ while describing actual genocide that the democrats were complicit in as ‘disproportionate acts’ which you attributed to the machinations of one individual.
equating the oppressed with their oppressors and blaming individuals is something that makes it hard for me to want to engage with liberals with anything other than hostility
Sorry but that sounds like a bunch of excuses from choosy beggars.
How do you think AOC or Bernie Sanders got their start? They certainly weren’t rich; nor did they take from special interests. From Mamdani to Talarico, people are stepping up! Are you? Be the change you want to see in the world!
some of us have to worry about paying rent and shit, believe it or not there’s not a lot of institutional backing for trans anarchists in electoral politics, just genocidal warmongers
you just sound out of touch
I’ll repeat the deflected:
How do you think AOC or Bernie Sanders got their start? They certainly weren’t rich; nor did they take from special interests. From Mamdani to Talarico, people are stepping up! Are you? Be the change you want to see in the world!
lol what, do you think rent was cheap for AOC and Sanders?
Gee, I wonder why. Not only can they not muster any candidates whatsoever or attract anyone by the power of their ideas, they also don’t seem to play nicely with others either.
i love how the two major examples of outsiders you present both routinely vote for funding the genocidal ethnostate and they’re also considerably more moderate than i am. social democrats - compatible with empire.
i don’t view electoralism as something worth participating in, because it’s a bourgeois farce. i’m not interested in playing nice with hitlerite liberals
Idk what to tell you. Choosy beggar who literally made up excuses why they can’t run and that their ideology is very unpopular and they cannot persuade people to support them in any sort of numbers.
I think you’re online way too much.
Don’t engage in it; refuse to do something to actually change or fix. Sit on pyrrhic positions in what is effectively nihilism at best; accelerationist at worst.
Almost more dangerous than a Trump supporter.
Oh, and Slava Ukraini?
trust me, arguing with hitlerite liberals and voting is the least of my political activity; certainly not interested in talking about what i do with people like you though.
from my perspective people like you are the accelerationists; you prevent any positive change and insist everyone vote for your preferred genocidal warmongers as the full scope of political activity while the world burns
gesundheit
don’t be petulant
I prefer attentive.
If you actually believed this, that running against zionist reps within the democratic party is doable and a viable strategy, and aren’t, then the only reasonable conclusion is that you are putting together your campaign or agree with the turbozionism of the dem establishment.
Why is this criticism only ever directed at others? I really only see these options
or you agitate outside, that’s how the zionist mamdani got elected. It was a ton of effort that took place mostly outside the dem establishment but as soon as they went inside the zionism started to creep in.
Organize with the PSL.
Sorry I am genuinely struggling to understand your first paragraph but if I understand right – Yes, we can defeat zionist candidates just as Talarico did against Crockett. Just as Mamdani did against Cuomo.
Ultimately these candidates run within the framework of the Democratic party to success. I have no problem with this, and I have no problem who advocates for these candidates either within or outside of the Democratic party so long as it actually is on the Democratic ticket and changes the composition therein.
then why aren’t you? Do you not think the zionist candidates should be defeated, are you too lazy to do it yourself, or do you maybe concede it’s a stupid ask of people fed up with the dems?
Also I don’t know much about Talarico, but I know zohran has done a lot for zionism but nothing against it afaik.
It is like saying if you don’t like the teacher of your kid doing a bad job , why don’t you become a teacher and teach him
These arguments of yours are so… Juvenile.
My tag for you from who knows when still checks out, lol.
I used your juvenile logic.
You are pathetic You are the idiot who though all hummus is israeli, lol
Sure you did, buddy, sure you did ;)
Never once said that, that was your poor inference ;) – I highly advise you take an Intro to Critical Thinking class!
No, you.
