In the expulsion of russian maintainers thread there are multiple people who are insulting russians as a whole. Isn't insulting people for their nationality against lemmy.world CoC? Is it allowed to insult egyptians or vietnamese people in a similar way?

Are they insulting all Russians or the country Russia?

Top comment is from fedia.io, they are insulting both the country and Russians.

Their instance policies state:

"Hate speech and abusive or threatening behavior is not permitted, specifically that which directed at any gender, nationality, religion, race, age, pizza topping preference, or sexual identity. One can hate on systemd all day long here."

If you think it's a violation, report it. If they do nothing with it...you're out of luck.

The rules for any instance boil down to, at their most basic level, "every moderation decision is up to the people who run their instance, and there is no appeal."

It seems like fedia.io is a difference instance. You can ask lemmy.world to defederate from them. You can also block the instance yourself. Go to your settings and at the bottom block the instance.

This reeks of sea lioning.

Putin and everyone fueling his dumbass war can go suck a dick and choke to death on it.

It’s sad that this is not obvious, but many people born in Russia do not support Putin’s actions.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The person you are replying to did not imply that all Russians support Putin.

[–] index@sh.itjust.works -1 points 4 months ago

This thread refers to another in which same users went as far as trying to provide scientific evidence that all russians are bad.

If someone was to say "Americans are trying to elect a criminal for President." That would be true. Even though, I personally, am an American, and I am not trying to elect a criminal.

Sounds like you're getting insulted by assuming people mean ALL Russians, when they really mean "this specific group of Russians"

So am i allowed to insult all Turks in general because their president is a fascist?

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You sure seem to be pushing a lot of Russian talking points on Lemmy, comrade.

[–] index@sh.itjust.works -1 points 4 months ago

Such as? Is pointing out violation of the rules and hypocrisy a russian point?
