Hi comrades. I posted a link to a Michael Parenti lecture on kolektiva.social yesterday and got banned as a ‘tankie’. So I’m looking for a mastadon instance that isnt full of libs and questions the official narrative on all these wars. I found two left leaning instances but they are invite only apparently. Anyone got a recommendation?
toots.matapacos.dog is Hexbear affiliated (not official though) and unfederated with kolektiva.social out of security concerns. Looking at the people I follow who are mostly communists, the following instances may be fine:
- union.place
- tenforward.social
- jorts.horse
- mas.to very big instance that Yogthos is on
Thanks. Just joined matapacos.
No problem. Welcome!
matapacos defederated from kolektiva for what security concerns? i too am a kolektiva user hiding my power level and looking to migrate, but i dont want to lose the comrades ive met on kolektiva :(
The FBI obtained an unencrypted copy of their database, and then the Kolektiva admins took over a month to tell people about it. Matapacos did a poll on whether to defederate and it was a 11-4 decision to do so. Here is the full thread on the matter. https://toots.matapacos.dog/@porkroll/110647135565812578
Likewise, we defederated from mastodon.world because one of their admins was trying to dox people. There was no vote on that though. Here’s the toot on that. https://toots.matapacos.dog/@porkroll/110861825359049168
You will probably want to find a go-between instance that federates both with Kolektiva and matapacos then.
those links don’t work. also i noticed i follow @prolewiki@matapacos.dog perfectly fine, though a lot of the acct’s follows/followers dont show up from kolektiva. are you sure it’s still defederated?
Oh shoot you probably need an account to view it then? IDK why you can follow prolewiki. Maybe I am misunderstanding something about suspension.
i got banned from mstdn.social for unknown reasons … just got an email out of the blue one day saying they’d warned me and now i was banned… no f’n idea what it was about
probably something i said that was ‘tankie’ i’m willing to bet
Were you p****g on anyone at the time? That would probably do it tbh.
Lol Tankie is now=leftist/communist/anarchist I don’t agree with.
It’s the new McCarthy witch-hunt except saying “commie” is too pathetic so now the fashionable invective is “Tankie”
First you dehumanize opposition…

matapacos.dog is essentially the only one apparently, maintained by a hexbear user.
wasn’t kolektiva the instance that was raided by the FBI?
yeah, kolektiva is extremely “western anarchist”
Middle class lib anarchist. Never been arrested protesting war anarchist. Sure as hell ain’t in the streets anarchist

it’s mostly federated Twitter, but with a different sort of people
i kinda like the vibe, though I’m running my own instance (which bit me in the ass as early as yesterday, lol) and carefully selecting whomst I follow
There’s a few anarchists I follow on the kolektica instance, I’ve also been searching for a more leftist mastodon instance
I can’t help. I’m only commenting to say that I tried to set up accounts on a few instances and backed tf out when they insisted on adding a valid email. Can’t remember what they were, unfortunately.
