I like being exposed to opinions I don't agree with and don't like - it makes me feel like I am not just hiding in my bubble. I will admit that there are anti-capitalist threads in there that I agree with.
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.

I think they are saying it's important that ML people see more nuanced takes. Though without a coherent paragraph structure it's difficult to tell.
The entire fucking issue is that the tankies ban nuanced takes at the drop of a hat.

By that 'logic' everyone needs a taste of white supremacy, Christian nationalism, Nazis, and so on.
Certain opinions aren't worth giving any consideration to because they're so stupidly, pig-headedly wrong. The street corner preacher frothing at the mouth over LGBTQ people is one, .ml and the former hexbear (world's smallest violin plays a sad song for their passing) instances being prime examples.
Did you just compare anti-imperialist 'content' to pro-Nazi stuff? Anyway, no, it's unethical to be pro-Western imperialism, right is evidently different from wrong, and I agree that not every uttering deserves ears but trust me that every person that's been simmering in pro-war, anti-non white lives (whether it be anti-communist or islamophobic stuff, it just serves to alienate your fellow human being) propaganda since before they came out of the womb only know the wrong side of things and need to at least see some memes and be triggered into self-examination!

Nah .world would suck all by itself they have their own brand of censorship

I may not like the .ml political stance, but there are definitely people on there that may have non-political things worth listening to, which is why I haven't bothered blocking them. They may have some good opinions on open source software and such. I just avoid their news community because I know I will disagree with them and their stance.
They can always venture out of .ml. They're much better behaved when they do, which is great for everyone.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]What censorship? I have documented evidence of .ml's rampant censorship
If .world is doing their own flavor then where's the receipts?
Also, .world doesn't need .ml, nobody needs .ml, they only have like 2 comms that don't have a non.ml variant that beats them in MAUs

Time to change your diaper, OP.

The spread of Russian propaganda and misinformation is in large part the reason for a lot of the right-wing BS. There's been articles and documentation of their Misinformation campaign for at least a decade now

We should not be a party to it's continuing spread

Even the devs are fucking tankies. I'm thinking of moving to PieFed and hope for the best. Been hopping websites all my life anyway.

What's the easiest way to switch instances? I didn't know any of this. I just wanted to get away from reddit and still engage with communities focused on my hobbies...

Create an account on another other instance and export/import your settings. I don't think it carries over your posts and comments but everything else probably will like your communities, blocks and preferences.

If you could be so kind as to list the number of times NATO has gone on an offensive war, I'll be waiting.
Russia has a history of invading its neighbors, with several notable examples including the Soviet invasions of Hungary in 1956, Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Afghanistan in 1979. More recently, Russia invaded and occupied Crimea in 2014 and has been involved in conflicts in Georgia and Ukraine.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]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 ?

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

Super valid, its not cool, but you know there's another server that should be defederated for spreading bullshit gebocidal propaganda...
