I guess that this 50501 movement has somehow gained some recent popularity from somewhere, but the sheer volume of content, communities, and even instances seems weird.
Where did this all come from and why did it seem to come as a sudden flood?

Can you provide a source for that? As far as I’m aware its a movement protesting Trump and Musk’s purported election fraud and fascistic policies. Like almosy basically the opposite of what you’re throwing out there
No. Well, I can link to the comment of the person who said they were Nazis:

Although, re-reading the thread, I’m no longer sure what @chakravanti@monero.town was saying. It looks like he may have been saying 50501 was protesting Nazis? I probably misinterpreted them. They gave no evidence, either way.
Thanks for clarifying, probably best to double check as a practice. Misinfo abounds fr. Might be nice to edit parenr comment or at least ~ ~ cross it out to update
Why? I didn’t say that they were , only that someone in Lemmy has told me they were. I’m still not due they didn’t. I explicitly said I had no idea. And I posted the link to the comment in question, so there’s no doubt that they exchange actually happened.
I’m not taking a position on 50501 until I know more.
