It could be tbut the most recent de-federation controversy didn't involve a right wing instance.

I know it's easy to blame the alt right for everything, but the hexbear community was a communist community.

I thought the most recent one was those skinheads taking over rammy. I figure there's going to be quite a few defederating examples going on.

[–] ieightpi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I didn't hear about that one

[–] MaxVerstappen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It wasn't really newsworthy, just an abandoned instance hijacked by a handful of nutjobs.

[–] meldroc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Are they the same neo-nazi chuds from that detonating craniums instance that everyone de-fedded?

[–] Astroturfed@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

The most recent two I saw were Nazi racist/anti-lgbt folks.

IIRC these rolling DOS attacks started before the most recent defed, though. They've been happening for a while.

[–] Buelldozer@lemmy.today 3 points 1 year ago

They were indeed but that doesn't mean its only one group doing this.

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

there was a defed with a bunch of tankies, and they were openly discussing on their instance doing and having done ddos attacks

[–] squiblet@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

The Rammy thing? Many of the objectionable posts there were by the exact same person from exploding heads.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

Right wingers aren’t smart enough to coordinate something like that.
