This is what happens when you burn all your bridges. I'm American myself and to be brutally honest, I hope most of the free world will continue to refuse requests to export to us.

Good for them. As an American I fully support them fighting back against our bullshit

And this a prime example of why the multi-instance system is great. Don't like one instance? Go to another one.

EDIT: I also wish to say that I feel both sides of the situation have merit. Yes, it sucks that we've been defederated, but in all fairness, there legitimately was an issue with abusive users causing havoc over on Beehaw.

"Shut up about the issue that I could actually be solving, but instead I'm too busy bullying our allies and making things even more expensive"

Yeah, no. Fuck off Mango Mussolini

It's early days here. Give it some time...

Well... that's just going to be most American sites going forward. That's why ultimately platforms like Lemmy are so important. What a lot of people here in the States don't realize is that this is a war on information.

So we've officially got a Gestapo in the country now?

C'mon guys.... let's wake the fuck up here.

Hey look... the American Great Firewall...

I don't particularly prefer Biden, but he's much more preferable than these crazy nazi Republicans running against him

She's what gives me hope for my generation.

People who support this aren't American anyway. Real Americans believe in human rights

Bro literally intentionally does a Nazi salute on TV and then whines when people say he's a Nazi...

The fact that the US is the only major industrialized nation without some from of a universal healthcare system is supremely fucked up...

I'm honestly getting real fuckin fed up with this country

You could literally put a half eaten turkey sandwich against Trump and I'd vote for the sandwich 100% of the time.

Good. Free speech has no meaning unless actually put into practice.

As somebody from the US, I can't wait to see our country fall. The world isn't going stand by and let us fuck with them anymore

This is what we're up against.

I'll be damned if I let these people continue to run our country

The hilarious thing is how understanding they were about it. xD

It stopped being a debate for me once the ICJ literally ruled that Israel's actions in Gaza are illegal. It's not antisemitic to call out legitimate war crimes...
