Imagine my surprise reading this on the LA Times this morning (emphasis mine):
“I would not acknowledge reproduction as a human right, but instead as a form of rape,” IndictEvolution wrote on Lemmy.World in July 2023. “I am also not bothered by infanticide as long as it is done humanely…”
Here is an archive of the article.
Here is his account.
It looks like he only stayed on Lemmy for about a month, most likely a temporary Reddit exile with the earliest exodus on June 2023. The article mentions threads on Reddit but doesn’t provide any quotes from there. User IndictEvolution on Reddit deleted their account, and the article makes it sound like they are referring to a different username that they don’t specify.

Lemmy.world? The instance of misanthropic baby killing terrorists?
Hmmm, how did they find out?
You mean the reporters? I wondered about that, but then realized that the guy tended to use the same online nickname on various sites. Searching the web for that nickname probably turned up a bunch of his accounts and then they could read the comments to determine if they were likely the same person. Pretty good reporting, I thought.
Ah, good reason to always make new usernames for each site/service that is signed up for. 😉
Yes, definitely a good privacy and security practice. Different passwords is important too. Different email addresses as well, if possible. There are services like simplelogin and anonaddy that make the email part simple.
Yes, the email I use has that built in, though if I can I don’t use email for an account, like on Lemmy (which is how it should be everywhere in my opinion, just a username and password). All my passwords are different too!
I bet he was an Arch user!
I’m unaware of this stereotype.
Gonna second this, no clue about this one.
What the fuck is wrong with you? This guy bombed a clinic, and you are joking about the distro he used?
Found the Arch user.
Fedora actually. Regardless, work on that whole cynical tween thing and try not to spend too much time trying to be edgy by misreading Nietzsche. You’re better than that.
You got “cynical tween” and “misread Nietzsche” from a four word joke about Arch users? Okay, sure buddy…
He did some damage for sure, but thankfully I don’t believe anyone was seriously injured.
Wait, is this not the guy who killed someone by bombing a fertility clinic? Did I just make the assumption that this was the same guy???
The someone he killed was himself. He blew himself up on a day that the area of the clinic nearest him wasn’t really in use and wherever the eggs are was not in range. He certainly could have killed someone, he just didn’t happen to.
Implying any of us go outside
I’ve finally got my ultra minimalist system set up and I am going to bask in it’s soothing glow.

A fascist on lemmy.world???
These weirdo antinatalists and their misanthropic ideology are very dangerous. They often like to hide their true intentions behind pseudo progressive opinions.
Lol true intentions?? I’m a Misanthropic Anti-Natalist. Maybe even something more base even. I’ve found I’m anti-life in general. I wish the planet earth itself was hit with such a large celestial body as to simply explode. Life is suffering. I was raped when I was brought into this world without my permission. Life is 100% more suffering than pleasure. And we think it’s all ok because we are On team Alive, team Earth, team Human, team nation, culture! Art! Music! The “human Project”… such sheep mentality. If animals tomorrow everywhere gained sentience they would rightfully fight us humans to the death! We kill and eat them and cause endless pain and suffering… so fuck all life everywhere, I know it’s essentially universal entropy in action, but I find it pathetic and arrogant, humans that is.
. I wish the planet earth itself was hit with such a large celestial body as to simply explode
This does not even dignify a response. Please seek professional help.
Get help yourself
I don’t think they even do hide them very good, they are scratched really fast. Worse is that malthusianism runs pretty shallow under mainstream liberalism and is reproduced by white supremacy.

Oh fuck they’re going to call us all extremists
We’ll have to push back with pointing to the decentralized nature of the fediverse, and that there’s gonna be crazies on some instances. I always use email as an analogy when explaining Lemmy, maybe we could continue that and argue you wouldn’t blame all of email infrastructure if an extremist had a gmail or Hotmail or whatever.
Actually now that I read that, it just might be more confusing. But there’s gotta be a counter angle to argue to get ahead of people thinking “Lemmy=bad”
Also even if the cops shut down world, people will just … move. Like yours and my instances don’t even have the word “lemmy” in the domain. I don’t think anyone would care beyond “we shut down that radical forum.”
Though most likely is it goes completely unnoticed and some bombing or shooting or human rights abuse next week will shoves it down the memory hole for good.

Next week? Try last night in DC. I’m doubting this will even register tbh
It would not bode well for the future of discourse if lemmy.world of all places gets shut down for radicalism. Our instance is significantly more radical than lemmy.world. Can you imagine some ecofascist idiot who posted on slrpnk.net a couple times committing a terror attack and getting the instance taken down? I can, which is why this news should be very concerning.
Edit: Just looked through some of the bomber’s comments and their replies and some users even pointed out that his rhetoric was reminiscent of ecofascism. Anti-natalism and ecofascism are ideological siblings. The backlash to this attack is going to catch environmentalist groups in the crossfire, with many environmental activists being accused of having anti-natalist views. Anyone who’s ever advocated for degrowth might get lumped in with them.
I agree, you have very good points. I don’t particularly think that him having posted for about a month two years ago on a particular instance is any particular mark against that instance, as I think that that could have happened to many (but perhaps not all) Lemmy instances. Good point about backlash hitting eco activists too.
It’s funny because even of the people I know, it’s actually like “lemmy=what?” Even of the people I’ve talked to about it.
They’re so painfully disinterested, they usually tune out after the first five words of my fediverse elevator pitch.
You think that quote’s bad, you should see what they’re saying on Xitter
I’m glad I’m not there. I only ever had a Twitter account when I made a bot that fact check replied every post of Trump’s around 2016, then I deleted it.
Soooo… What are they saying? I don’t have xitter…
I mean just the usual, you know, Nazi stuff
Our very first terrorist. We’re going places boyos. Just hope this doesn’t bring like minded people here, especially since reddit banned that sub, and Lemmy’s is still up.
We’re still so young, we haven’t even killed anyone yet.
quick edit: I do have suggestions tho
Wonder if the wayback machine can find anything from reddit or if we can find their account on lemmy.
Fuckin wild and 100% un-surprised it was .world lol
I linked his account on Lemmy.world in the original post. I couldn’t find an active account on Reddit though, unless the LA Times reporters used the wayback machine themselves to see his old posts. I’m sure that they would be on wayback machine, but the article mentions a different web handle associated with him.
Preemptively bombing a fertility clinic as a last resort.
Not beating the Reddit.world accusations. 😏
But have you considered .ML is evil tankie!?!!?
I can bet .ml is considered a bigger threat.
I mean it is but this was about .world
The point is to show that anticommunists complain about Lemmy.ml like McCarthy, but it ended up being a Lemmy.world mod that committed Malthusian terrorism.
The point was that people complain about something going on in .ml but something unrelated happened with .world?
Lemmy.world frequently calls Lemmy.ml evil, yet to our knowledge only a Lemmy.world mod has gone on to become a domestic terrorist, a Malthusian no less. It points to hypocricy.
Many more ways to be evil than just being a terrorist though
Let me guess, you think being a Marxist is evil?
“Tankies are a serious threat to domestic and international politics. Please ignore that only 1% of all people know what that is. Also let us actively keep a terrorist and retroactively remove their comments before it became news, because the FBI made us.”
We need to step up our game. Quickly kill some white rich people, there’s nothing more evil than that!
Wait! Choose which fat old white guys. Don’t leave it to chance!
Nostradamus
you openly supporting killing white rich people?
I support treating rich white people the way you advocate for treating Palestinians.
so you want to kill people? how?
Humanely
how many would you like to kill?
I’m not native english speaker but I think the joke is pretty clear.
just kidding?
see how that works in court
I know that I gonna say may surprise you but the world is not just EUA and Europe.
I did not commit any crime
there’s people on here pretty far down the radicalization funnel here so there’s a lot of people indicating that that is acceptable behavior
I would never openly support such a thing!
🙂
it’s cool that Mali (.ml) is one of the Sahel states that’s rejecting imperialism and ML also happens to stand for marxism-leninism
.ml user used whataboutism as taught by putins ministry of copeaganda. It’s not very effective.
Seems to be pretty effective, sitting at 76 upvotes and 9 downvotes as viewed from Lemmy.ml. Seems the random and baseless assertion of Russian propaganda is less effective.
Believe it or not, Lemmy.ml is federated with many instances.
Big if true
It’s very impressive how brainwashed shitlibs are that they think the concept of “pointing out blatant double standards” was invented by a man who is younger than the current and previous US presidents.
I think theyre embracing the comparison
lmao, of course
