Lemmy admins can see who is using alts to brigade others and ban them, yet they clearly don't. They allow all kinds of skeevy bullshit from everyone -- it took months of pressure to get them to even do so much as ban obvious problem instances like Hexbear.

They do it because they are selfish assholes who only care about power, and everyone just accepted they're the dominant class in our little society here and that the big name instances like .world and .ml are perfectly fine with controlling the majority of content on the platform. It was never what was intended for federation in the first place, yet here we are.

Lemmy sucks as a platform because it's not programmed to circumvent people's base animalistic hierarchial nature and that is its problem.

The platform should automatically track for obvious alt and bot accounts and ban them.

It really should have a toggable hate filter that automatically bans people for using certain hate terms.

Accounts need to be tied to user machines so bans are actually halfway enforceable.

The platform shouldn't really *require* mods or admins; an AI should monitor interactions and stop arguing or antagonistic encounters outright.

The admins should be acting fairly and impartially.

But none of that is happening because no admin is participating in good faith, they're just looking to ensure they can do what they want without consequences, and so are the mods who have claimed almost every old subreddit name across instances under a few select usernames so they could have power over others and win confrontations.

And people can get away with power tripping because the platform wasn't designed to take the fact that people do that into account. Any platform or social system that is not built on the first principle that humanity is inherently evil is bound to fail, and look what happened here. Perfect example.
