They successfully convinced the Owners of lemmy.world to block 3 piracy instances.

The true tragedy of the event..

Lemmy.world was probably going to do that anyway. They're getting too big and the potential for stupid legal action becomes a serious problem.

Lemmy world’s admins are cryptofascists. I’ve become convinced. We’ll see more indications.

I have the stupid so bear with me. Can you explain what exactly "cryptofascists" are and how LW admins qualify for the title?

Crypto fascists are fascists who hide their true politics. Lemmy.world admins tried really hard to avoid defederating with a Nazi instance, pre-emptively defederated from a leftist one, and collaborated with an out fascist to ban db0’s piracy forum.

They’re fascists or they collaborate with them, which means they’re fascists.
