I'm a Marxist-Leninist, sure, whatever you want to call that. SJW is generally seen as right-wing for hosting some of the most pro-US and anti-communist communities, and having an admin that thinks China and Russia are pushing "gender politics" to radicalize western youths against the US, and even doubled down when called out for their transphobia. This is MAGA-tier conspiracy theory nonsense and undermines the real struggles faced by transgender people in order to push their own political agenda.
You yourself essentially just stir up drama and repost content from Lemmy.ml, which is kinda silly. Same with trying to make "Tankie Triad" a thing, Marxists occupy far too much of your time for someone who presumably isn't a Marxist.
Being a Tankie doesn't mean just being a communist, being a tankie is defined as "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof. "
You guys censor anybody who speaks against Russia/NK/or the CCP and it's well documented. People catch 14 day bans for merely saying that Drump and NK dictators are "dumb" or saying "Fuck Russia" on a meme about Russia being pushed away from getting help from Trump by the French (iirc) PM (which also got removed) and it's also hilarious your bring up the SJW admin when one of your own did the exact same thing.
SJW isn't right-wing, that's just what you say about everyone whose explicitly not a tankie
I could post ever more links about the .ml censorship problem but I think made my point
[email protected] if you want to see more evidence everyone
lemmy.world/c/[email protected] for those on .ml since .ml doesn't want you to see it!

Check the side bar, it's a satire conservative community lol
I actually became a mod of it and turned it into a satire of the conservatives comm because the actual few conservatives here abandoned it, that's the only reason why you guys on Blahaj can even see it because Ada had it blocked on your instance for awhile lmao

“Tankie” is a caricature. The idea of a tankie is the ideal vision of a McCarthyian Communist. In reality, the overwhelming majority of people labeled as such don’t actually fit that label, it’s more of a way to cast an image of someone’s positions based on, say, support for AES countries, and twist that into the evil Commie Pinko that haunts the dreams of 1960s children in the US.
Either way, Lemmy.ml has a higher standard when it comes to racism, ableism, homophobia, and other forms of chauvanism. Many people are critical of Russia, the DPRK, CPC, etc yet don't get removed because they don't break those rules. Moreover, I am not a representative of Lemmy.ml, I am no fan of Nutomic and have stated that before, transohobia is unacceptable no matter who does it.
As for MwoG, I have seen it, and I don't really care for an anti-communist drama community polulated by stalkers, doxxers, and drama-baiters that take things out of context or fully stand by bigotry unironically (that's where the transphobia from the SJW admin came from, you'll notice).

using "jokes" to push conservatism is a common tactic of crypto-fascists as is warmongering shitposts like noncredibledefense or spreading 4chan greentexts, both of which are the top communities on SJW (intentionally chosen by the way) which combined with the transphobic admins creates a alt-right vibe on sh.itjust.works

I will shitpost harder.
I'm doing my part!

End of an era 🥲
Although usually the tide rolls back down for a while with one of these Septembers, as some newbies just don't click with their instance for whatever reasons. Still, it seems inevitable that it will tip over that threshold, and stay there, one day.
I had to switch instances 3 times before I found one I was okay with.

One of my largest pain points with Lemmy is that there are multiple active communities for the same topic, causing quite a few duplicate posts to show up in my feed that is difficult to filter. Hopefully there comes some kind of solution, outside of userbase, this is (what I believe) one of the larger issues compared to Reddit.
However, I still switched over to Lemmy for my primary 'Reddit'-needs.

Welcome! We've got memes on deck at [email protected] and if you're a programmer of some kinds we got [email protected] to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at [email protected] or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful [email protected] or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like [email protected] and [email protected] . [email protected] is also nice this time of year, but you'll have to post before you can leave.
We're not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian "communists" who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the "gold standard"), but here they're mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a .ee account so you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you'd rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check [email protected]
Exactly right... cm0002. If you don't like a instance, block it with the tools given to you. Why haven't you blocked .ml if you feel so strongly about this?
Solidarity amongst the instances! We will not be divided against each other!

It helps to see communities as categories for an instance, each instance will have a different response to the same post based on the general instance vibe and culture. That's also why picking a good instance to browse locally can be pretty useful.

I am quite far from being a conservative and I am well aware of what happened to r/TheDonald and I am trying to walk that fine line, I plan to lock the comm entirely if I feel like it's shifting away from true satire.
Despite what Tankies think about me, I'm actually pretty far left, I would even love to see the fall of capitalism in my lifetime. Where we differ is the fact that I don't consider swapping out capitalism with just another form of authoritarianism is the path forward whatsoever
That being said, I've seen your type of opinion before, and I simply don't agree, a lot of people need a varying range of humor to deal with harsh realities, like with the fact that MaGA and other global alt-right movements appears to be "winning"
Take a look through my comment history and it'll be abundantly clear, to be ever more clear, Fuck Trump, Fuck Putin, Fuck Muskrat, Fuck AfD, and fuck any other Right-wing leader/political party around the world

I like that view, and it made me think of a possible "implementation"/"fix" as well:
- Combine the post somehow (Based on attachment/title/something else?)
- Filter/categorize the comments by instance that the comment was originally posted towards (Not by user, as that would be awful)
The largest issue here that I can see, how do we treat "new" comments to a post?
My annoyance is primarily with the fact that I see the same image 3x in a row, on a fairly regular basis. I might unsub from a few communities that share the same content.

There are many different workarounds, I personally don't put much stock into sorting by "all" generally, sorting locally tends to be a better experience and has less repetition.

It did you dirty with this one lol

Is this something that should be really celebrated? I mean, the reason I joined is because it's not reddit. And I feel that this place will turn into reddit 2.0 if we're not careful.
The beauty of the fediverse is that you can pick exactly what you want.
Would you like reddit 2.0 where the admins will do what they can to ban "luigi's manefesto" from being posted? You can do that!
Not my cup of tea, but yall do you
-
And here comes the fun part: It can't turn into Reddit 2.0.
If you don't like the policy of your Instance, just join an Instance that fits you more, or create one your own.This is the biggest draw for me. No more switching services finally.

Sounds like a good solution for people who are on larger instances, my instance does not host any communities sadly.
You can pseudo-curate by only subscribing to your most prefered instance of comm, but you won't be able to see instances with allow-lists as the basis, rather than block-lists.

What happened around February 12?
The domain registration lapsed and somebody tried to make money off of it.
-
It's a bizarre thing to go after. I really don't like the pro luigi posts cos he murdered someone and that's not ok... but people are allowed to have their own opinion and most of it IME is tongue in cheek. There's far more important issues they could look at (Russian interference, reddit being used for crime etc) but no... luigi. Ffs.
Luigi Mangione has not been convicted and is innocent until proven guilty.
-
The admins managed to get Hexbear.net back and the sale of the domain was stopped.
Hey that's great news! Thanks for letting me know.
