There needs to be a list of instances that defederate lemmy.ml by default. It’s not just a single community, it is at the admin level.

everyone already knows this, it’s their instance and they aren’t being racist so who cares?

What is this thread even. Blocking an entire instance, because a single community member annoyed somebody? I mean, sure, go ahead…

ML simply happens to be the instance hosted by the developers of entire Lemmy, so they spend the bare minimum on post moderation, because they have the bigger picture to focus on.

Now the screenshots show that a “mod” took action. A “mod” can be literally anybody appointed by the current mods of a community. Anybody can create a community, just like on Reddit, so this could literal have been anybody. You’ll encounter similar bans on other instances in time as they grow too, because people are free to make sub-rules to their communities, essentially each “mod” having their little dictatorship.

You arent really a lemming until you’ve told Cowbee to go fuck himself.

Fucking Christ. We aren’t on .ml but you wouldn’t know it from the number of people absolutely obsessed with them. Just ignore it if you don’t like it. Join a de-federated instance, block the communities, whatever. Bitching here has absolutely no impact.

I’m more curious how .ml users feel about that mod’s idea that rape is an acceptable action to do in certain contexts, for example if a woman served in a Western military.

I can understand all their political positions and opinions but that one seems beyond the pale.

You must be new around here. This is old news and a reason a lot of places block ml

It’s good to have this documented, thanks. It’s one thing for everyone to “know” they’re Tankies, it’s another to have compiled evidence and A/B examples like this to point to.

Every Marxist state (USSR, China, Cambodia, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam) produced authoritarian regimes with mass deaths, poverty, or corruption. None achieved Marx’s stated goal of classless, stateless society. China and Vietnam abandoned core Marx principles for market mechanisms to survive economically. I do not support capitalism or imperialism of USA, Israel and Europe, neither approach is good for humanity! No one them think of labor class

by 🐭 Labor Class@lemmy.world reason: Imperialist propaganda

Well this is pretty standard right wing, often US, propaganda so the reason isn’t far off. 😄 Sure they are pretty trigger happy but parroting right wing propaganda (whether or not you consider it such, and whether or not you consider yourself a capitalist) in an self-avowed leftist space won’t get you hugs and kisses. Especially in this day and age when everyone is looking at whay the US is doing and catching up on world history as a result. If it were me I wouldn’t delete and ban, instead I’d post references to read. But it is what it is. 🤷

I think it’s common knowledge at this point that it’s a deranged *tankie instance

Daily reminder to block every instance ending in @lemmy.ml

All the content you see there has been censored out of any criticism to china/Russia/north Korea. If you don’t look at the content that passed their censorship filter, their censorship loses all its power. Look at and support communities of other instances instead.

I decided to block the lemmy.ml instance entirely to avoid any further interaction.

Thank you ☺️

You were explained about a hundred times over how Western countries promoted Nazis into top roles and the USSR only used them for labor.

But instead of bringing any argument you repeatedly insulted users and .ml in the thread.

You were begging for a ban and got it. And now you whine about it here.

Although i write from lemmy.lm, i have no clue what Marxism/leninism is all about. What i CAN say is that you are most definitely just regurgitating the most ridiculous and infantile US propaganda from the big western echo-chamber, and i for one - not being a ‘baad baad Tankie’ - are happy to have you and similar gullible (no offence intended) western moral aggressors blocked.

There’s too much infantile propaganda and hence too many angry mob people in the Western media-sphere/echo-chamber, and I’m thrilled to have found a place where i don’t have to see or hear that evil warmongering stupidity and childish unsupported claims again and again and again.

It is very easy to debunk all the infantile claims about all the enemies of the US fascist Oligarchy (any country in the entire World where US elites power is restricted, is their enemy), but you didn’t bother - at all ! In short, you are regurgitating what the Epstein+ class want you to regurgitate, and thus you are just supporting the Western fascist Oligarchy - no matter if the puppet admin is Trump, Biden, Bush, Obama or any of the other psycho people put in place (…you HAVE realised that we don’t have ‘Democracy’ in the west right? …right?!). Please educate your self on how the US elite have been behaving globally throughout history, how they colonize and oppress western societies/people, how the US propaganda machine actually works and THEN come back and we’ll openly discuss the world situation again from there. Until then, your regurgitations are nothing but uneducated noise coming directly from the psychos benefitting from it. Again, no offense intended.

So, enough about you and your storytelling.

Thank you to all geo-politically educated mods on all instances, for keeping my feeds relatively free of US/western propagandist echo-chamber warriors that don’t/won’t bother checking anything they are told by their Epstein class rulers and their for-profit lying media sphere. Sad but necessary work inside this imbecile western lynch-mob. Love you all !

Oh, and a special thanks goes to lemmy.lm and all the geo-politically educated people there for sheltering me while its raining stupid outside. You should be proud of being called a ‘Tankie’ - whatever that childish slur means - you are intellectually far beyond the normal western crowd. A real treat to hang out with you 🙏🏻
