The community c/[email protected] states in the sidebar it’s a community for leftists and post leftists, but if you actually look at the posts the mods are making, it’s almost nothing but trolling and telling people not to vote in the general election.

This rhetoric is especially dangerous to trans people, who this instance is supposed to be a safe space for, and West Bank Palestinians. If the USA elects a fascist president, there is guaranteed to be multiple genocides of society’s most vulnerable groups, in addition to what the US is already doing in Gaza.

The mods on Liberty Hub openly troll their users and ban people for advocating left wing or harm reducing positions. The only action that is allowed on the sub is advocating political inaction in the face of genocide, taking a centrist position with regards to open fascism.

This community has absolutely no place on Blahaj Zone and should be removed by the admins.

    Man, why didn’t I think of preventing political propaganda from reaching people by ignoring it. What a good idea!

      Memes from someone whose takes you don’t like isn’t the same thing as propaganda and it certainly doesn’t make the community transphobic. If you can’t live with seeing it, block it. There is real, honest to god, paid for with billionaire cash political propaganda targeting trans people out there, and that community ain’t it.

        propaganda noun

        1 : a congregation of the Roman curia having jurisdiction over missionary territories and related institutions
        2: the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person
        3: ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one’s cause or to damage an opposing cause
        also : a public action having such an effect

        Ideas spread for the purpose of furthering a cause. I think Liberty Hub’s anti-voting posts meet both definition 2 and definition 3. (Merriam Webster)
