Hey all — just launched openmic.social, a general-purpose Lemmy instance with a specific mission: open discourse + transparent, restorative moderation.

The pitch is simple — anyone can grab the mic — and the thing that makes us different is what happens when you cross a line:

  • No shadowbans, ever. If your post is removed or your account is actioned, you’re told — what happened, which rule, and how to fix it.
  • We help before we punish. A heads-up and a path back come before a ban. Bans are the last resort, not the first reflex.
  • Moderation in the open. Every call is appealable, publicly, in our !meta community.
  • Hard lines only: nothing illegal, no targeted harassment, no doxxing, no spam. That’s what keeps the mic open for everyone.

We’re brand new, which means early adopters shape the culture. Come introduce yourself, bring a community that needs a home, or start one — I’ll help you set it up and mod it.

      It sad that people do not understand that Zionism is a supremacist genocidal ideology

      Herzl’s Diary, 12 June 1895

      The property owners will come over to our side. According to my conception, the majority of the local population will have to be transferred elsewhere.

      We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it any employment in our own country. - Herzl’s Diary, 12 June 1895

      Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly - Herzl’s Diary, 12 June 1895

              I cited the writing of the father of political Zionism advocating for ethnic cleansing and not allowing the local Palestinians to live with them and you scum still claim that zionism is good and not a supermasist genocidal ideology. Fuck off from here
