So far Lemmy is vibing. Everyone here is excited and optimistic and willing to put up with a few rough spots to be part of something.

When the Eternal September comes, which it will, how does a Lemmy instance deal with bad actors?

Re: the "vibrant community"

Yeah, it's like the Nazi bar idea: that if you have a bar and there's one Nazi, you need to kick them out and show zero tolerance, otherwise they'll bring their Nazi friends and your regular patrons will leave and before long, you'll be running a Nazi bar.

The thing is, kicking the Nazi out protects your space and your community, but it doesn't stop them from finding another bar. There's always a Nazi bar somewhere.

I myself occasionally browse the "nazi bars" of the fediverse to get an idea of what the hell they're complaining about now. Similarly I go to the tankie places to get acquainted with which genocide they're denying today hahah, it's a fun hobby to do occasionally, too much and it gets irritating though.

I've been bothered by Communists before. At least in real life they help homeless people and trans kids. It's at least better than being mass shooters like Nazis.

There have been a lot of situations where I've had communists helping me with my social work giving out narcan to addicts. I never turn down their help and they're less preachy than the Christians, which I also let help me.

At least there haven't been any Lenin brigades where they paste the full content of the Communist Manifesto in every thread. Then I'd have a problem with them lol.
