Why is this on shitpost? Dude's got a mega thread with references and receipts.

Ugh ml users are the worst
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Well, there's one that's worse.
Two if you count bootleg mastodon instances.

Fair enough.
Super valid, its not cool, but you know there's another server that should be defederated for spreading bullshit gebocidal propaganda...
-
This would be a fine sentiment if the feeling were mutual with the .ml admins. Their entire thing is aggressive censorship of ideas they disagree with, so if your ideal is free exchange of ideas, then you support the opposite of that by engaging with them.
True, but .world isn't much better.

I'm personally not on lemmy.ml but they literally advertise what their ideology is. If I go to a meeting of socialists in my community, I am expected to be in agreement with, or at least tolerant of, socialist viewpoints. If you're entering lemmy.ml you're expected to tolerate ML viewpoints, obviously.

They do not, Hex and Grad, yes. This is the current homepage of lemmy.ml, nothing indicates them being a Tankie Instance supporting Authoritarian regimes and their misinformation:
-
I think you can block the entire instance, not community by community or user by user.
By user blocking an instance you just "hide" the posts of that instance, not their users, so you'll still see their interactions on posts of other instances even yours
-
those tankies would be very upset if they could read.

Yugoslavia, Afganistan, Bosnia, Serbia & even Africa; I can go on. They violate international law like Israelis.
BTW Russia (via Putin) WANTED to be in NATO.Richard Medhurst covers this in details buddy. Not only that; usage of Depleted uranium shells & cluster ammunitions, Hooo boy.
Don't try that whataboutism here. It's a mafia protection racket with USA being the head-honcho. Everyone knows this, were you living under a rock ?
I just want to laugh at the first source being a WordPress page that's pro al-assad which really just screams super trustworthy to me personally

Ugh ml users are the worst
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I honestly don't know what the big fuss is about. I became member of Lemmy.ml a couple of years ago when it was basically the only existing instance if I remember correctly. I've never seen any drama apart from posts like this that claim the admins suck or the users suck. Maybe those claims are even valid, but do they even affect the average user at all? I've considered changing instances even, but it seems rather a lot of effort for a lot of hot air to me.

OMG nobody fucking cares.
It seems atleast 260 people do care

Everyone needs a taste of anti-imperialist and non-Western takes, either for their sanity or just for their ideological development. I know Americans are gonna need them since the empire is coming home with full force, for instance. Without them, without 'radicals' like those in .ml, the folks will just be fed a new narrative to curtail their cognitive dissonance (it's the most imperceptible of buzzes for the least cerebral among us but it's still there) and they'll eat it up because that's all they're exposed to. So, no, they should be connected, for the sake of exposure. It's important too for those more .ml-coded to read, post and quickly check the downvote/upvote ratio in .world just like it was/is on big subreddits to get a feel of what the average literate Westerner, who at least considers discussion important (better than your average American, for instance), is thinking/has been fed recently.
Lemmy.ml is not anti-imperialist. They remove anything critical of China and Russia, both imperialist states.
Instances that are actually anti-imperalism in that they criticise both Western and Russian/Chinese etc imperialism might be lemmy.dbzer0.com or slrpnk.net.
lemmy.ml is arguably one of the most imperialist instances especially in terms of censorship.

The ML stands for Marxist-Leninist. I recall it being clarified better when I last visited several years ago. "What is Lemmy.ml?" is a link that expands on the instance as "niche" rather than mainstream.

Your personal beliefs doesn't make the truth any less truthful, also there's reports by Amnesty international as well.
You literally nitpicked one thing to discredit sonething else.

ML stands for Mali, there's no TLD for Marxism lol

Yeah I simply do not understand how you can be an ML user and have somehow missed the blatant abuse of moderation powers surrounding users like Cowbee.
You either just don't pay attention or you aren't on Lemmy much.

Yes but being federated with them means they can have their conversation in your space or overrun it, hence why op is saying it would be better to defederate

No, it's not a Mali instance. They're using it for something else. You may also notice .io domains are not always based in the Indian Ocean, nor .ly for Libya, .tv for Tumalu, etc.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Average 'ML users aren't that bad' post defending blatant propagandists.
No we're not talking 'socialism is actually good and here's why' posts, we're talking posts like 'China, the ethnostate, is a bastion of tolerance compared to a place like the U.S.'.
Fuck no to everything you've said supporting federation with .ml . The people on the platform deserve their fate if they can't see through the bullshit, I feel no differently about MAGA.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Go look at the modlog.
You might be a member of .ml but are you active on .ml communities?
I’ve been banned for asking if someone would genuinely prefer living in North Korea over the hellhole that is London or New York.
I’ve been banned for linking to the Wikipedia page for “actually existing socialism” because the page for it wasn’t flattering.
More recently I’ve found blocking all of .ml to improve my experience.
(Or alternately look at the voting on this comment lmao)
