So far I have been censored on .world but not on .ml

Oh, it's the regularly scheduled sabre-rattling post.

[–] ZeroHora@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

He has a little star in his calendar for every month.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 6 points 11 hours ago

Yep, they even get a bunch of their posts from Lemmy.ml communities and cross post them to non-Lemmy.ml communities. That's fine, but this is just a huge dedication to inter-instance drama.

I don’t care for the moderation policies of .ml but I don’t see what shitposting about it all the time without the context that they will ban you for “pro capitalist” posts does other than split the fediverse and make users who don’t even know what your problem is act defensive

The “average .ml poster”/“average .world poster” discourse is worn out.

Better .ml than .world, honestly

[–] Ascend910@lemmy.ml 4 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

I don't know why ml is so hated

.world is basically Reddit. They want Lemmy to be Reddit, and censor Lemmy as if it is Reddit.

If you make a negative post about .world it will get removed by their mods but they never apply their rule to .ml

Make a negative comment about China on ml I dare ya.

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 minutes ago* (last edited 6 minutes ago)

This this is on hexbear via ml, here's a whole comment thread complaining about neoliberal brainworms re: welfare in China and a bunch of people talking about how disappointing the fiscal conservatism is, one person pointing out that this type of wealth inequality is ultimately the result of government policy.

The admins and mods of .ml are the biggest Tankies of Lemmy, they refuse to admit that China is an authoritarian dictatorship that has committed recent genocide and constantly lick Putins boot saying things like Russia was justified in invading Ukraine unprovoked

!meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works though you'll need to view through another instance because .ml blocks this community specifically

Or !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 hours ago

Probably should be noted those communities are filled with the brigading efforts of like two chronically obsessed people who use alternate accounts to stir up shit or screenshot posts they often write themselves.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Some Lemmy instances are generally hostile to Marxists, who are more concentrated on Lemmy.ml.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Lemmy.ml and hexbear are not marxist. They are fascists cosplaying as soviet communists. Many people don't make that distinction though.

[–] archomrade@midwest.social 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

probably because that distinction is unfounded.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Believe it or not, there's nothing saying a communist country needs to be a one party dictatorship. It would be perfectly achievable though democracy if the majority of the population actually wanted to take collective responsibility for the country and wanted people to be treated fairly. The reason communist dictatorships fail is because they are dictatorships, not because they are communist.

[–] archomrade@midwest.social 2 points 7 hours ago

Marx had very little to say about the governing structure of communist governments, but did actually describe socialism as a 'dictatorship of the proletariat'.

What you're taking issue with is how marxism was later applied by various political projects, but they all still fall under the umbrella term of Marxism.

Put another way: all Marxist-lenninists are Marxist but not all Marxists are Marxist-lenninists

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 14 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Y'all know you can post to more than one place, right?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 8 points 12 hours ago

OP makes these posts on around a monthly basis, they have a pattern of posting these instance-drama related posts fairly regularly.
