I had the audacity to say that the deaths of Tiannanmen's Square were inexcusable, no matter who started the violence, and my comment was removed under instance rule 1 (bigotry).. like wat 😂
My OG account is 6 years old 👴
I dared to say that the illegal, violent invasion of the foreign nation of Ukraine was bad. Turns out NATO made them do that, as well as rape and torture all those people and steal the children. Who knew... 🤷♂️
The irony of so-called Marxist-Leninists refusing to be self-critical...

The .ml transparency thing is a symptom, not a root cause. The admins like and even participate in the .ml rhetoric. The rules ambiguity is intentional.
Their target audience is Westerner suckers gullible enough to have their opinions manipulated
Do they though?
I was rejected when I first tried to sign up (when I was entirely new to lemmy) and they're turning at least one user away now
3 years ago were there any other instances with traction? Agreed on your second point.
It’s a great advertisement for communism that’s for sure. They haven’t even gotten real power and it already resembles the worst of what communism offers. They’re a bunch of wannabe Ceausescu’s.
If they were banning people for shit posting on a communism community I wouldn't have a problem. Its when you get removed banned from all communities because you said you don't like there crappy memes
Tbf, that admin telling someone to kill themselves wasn't exactly a high mark for their ethics imho.
I get what you are saying: shittiness that happens daily is a more consistent pattern than something that happens ONCE.
On the other hand, an admin telling someone to literally kill themselves is such an extreme event that it might be grounds for their removal as an admin?
It's an age-old philosophy problem: which is worse, stealing daily vs. actually killing someone once?
Or is that a trick question, since both are kinda shitty, no?
In any case, what happens when someone does BOTH of them?
The answer is ofc literally nothing, when said person is protected by the instance admins who are also the developers of this codebase. I wonder what would have happened though if Huffman was caught saying something similar to the users of Reddit? Yeah, nothing, that's right - it's not like we would leave Reddit or anything:-P. (Except I did, and now I've left Lemmy too, hello from PieFed!:-D)
!asklemmy@lemmy.world has over 70 times as many subscribers as the other two asklemmy communities combined.
But maybe we shouldn't throw out the few eggs Lemmy does have.
Mmhmm, mmhmm - secret laws, secret trials - definitely not authoritarian behavior at all.

and for more specialized memes:
world news: I realize you're avoiding lemmy.world to promote decentralization which is why you're listing !news@beehaw.org, but note that beehaw defederated itself from lemmy.world and from several others?
Is femcel memes ironic?
Their sidebar has a longish explanation of where they're coming from.
I'll check it out, thanks.
Edit: sounds good to me. Especially that last bit.
!memes@slrpnk.net
I humbly submit:
!funny@sh.itjust.works
!technology@sh.itjust.works
An odd choice on their part is dessalines upvoting every comment that corresponds to a removal or ban. Feels almost as though they’ve Jerry-rigged their moderation code to an extreme degree in order to keep up with the day job levels of moderation they’re doing.
!ukraine@lemmy.ml vs !ukraine@sopuli.xyz
I suggest you add !globalnews@lemmy.zip to the news section. Beehaw isn't accessible to people on instances they've defederated from or instances that have defederated them.
Hello! That's a very lovely formatted table with links, however, clicking on them does nothing for me whilst clicking on links otherwise in the replies does take me to the respective communities. I don't know if it's just me though.
