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.

These cases are not about murder, but death sentences following due process. While it's not exactly the same, it's still calling for violence, even if it's in a more civilized and more commonly accepted way. Murder generally refers to unlawful killings.

I will take this to our team to discuss. Although I'm personally against death penalties, as I don't believe anyone can be trusted with this power as it will absolutely get abused and mistakes will be made, I think discussion surrounding death penalties in general should be allowed, provided there is due process involved. Discussion without referencing specific cases is also not easily possible. This is something that can be difficult to define, as for example Israel also claims there to be due process for the Palestinians they execute and lawfulness can often be quickly changed in favor of the acting regime.

This is definitely a comment that could have been phrased a lot better, but I don't see how this could even remotely be considered a call for violence.

    please share where jordan is calling for people to be murdered.

    So literally what you asked for. Asking for the justice system to do it is still calling for a person to be murdered. Death penalty is just legal/state sponsored murder.

    Wait this you are discussing with them but not the defedederation???

    I and most would consider it much worse than saying death to zionists, yet here we are.
