Yes. Check out the comments on this meta post. They ban people for "orientalism" and "sinophobia," meaning "talking poorly about China." I was banned because I criticised the Lemmy developer and owner of Lemmy.ml, Dessalines, for denying the Uyghur genocide. Check out the exchange below. You'll notice that many of the comments and users support China, claim no genocide is occurring, deny the Tiananmen Square Massacre, and even claim China is a democracy. Dessalines has been curating a communist community over there for years. He's just careful to hide that during signup.
That said, just because one instance is terrible doesn't mean all other instances are terrible. kbin.social is awesome. Lemmy.world is awesome. There are lots of instances you can interact with which have nothing to do with communism.
Dude just straight whataboutism'd mass rape. Christ, did I dodge a bullet.
Do you have a screenshot of them denying the Tiananmen Square Massacre? I'm not saying that they did not say that, I'm just curious what amount of gymnastics does it take to deny that.
Sadly not, but they removed this comment of mine four days ago, which discussed the TSM. You can find it in the modlog (lemmy.ml/modlog).
How dare the lemmy devs believe in reality instead of US State Department propaganda!
I think you're dumb, but I want to be clear that I respect your right to say dumb things here. I hope we remain federated with lemmygrad.ml. I much prefer to be able to disagree with people than just silence them. I say this despite knowing that, as an authoritarian, you feel the exact opposite.
Probably the same liberals that whine about Sage spaces in βcollege.β
