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.
While I agree with you to an extent, I’d like to point out there are many zionist civilians who are active participants in the genocide. How would they be handled? Also I find the idea of a “legitimately conducted war” to be a fools notion. Violence can be a necessary and appropriate response, but it is ultimately corrosive to all involved. War, as they say, is hell. It is devoid of moral righteousness. If you are in a war, fight it, to survive, but know you aren’t getting out intact nor clean.
Not attacking you, just my 2 cents.
When I say legitimately conducted, I’m talking about not committing war crimes. No targeting civilians, no poison gases, no atom bombs, no cruel and unusual weaponry, no torture of POWs. You know, the bare basics. War is hell, but we don’t need to go making super-hell. Regular hell will do.
As for the civilians who are participating in genocide, I say put them on trial. Send them to prison. Civilians are defined by their not posing an active combat risk. If we defeat the IDF and then Bibi picks up a gun, then he’s become a soldier. But if he surrenders, then we don’t execute him, we put him on trial and send him to prison for life. And it should be a decent prison with a nice quality of life, because there’s no need to punish people when they’ve already been removed from society and can’t do anything to hurt people anymore. I’m a supporter of luxury prisons, they have a better rehabilitation rate and I don’t believe in punishment,
