Why tho? I'm having trouble figuring out the differences in instances
The lemmy.ml instance is known to have admins, mods and users that spread the promotion, praise and propaganda of dictatorships and other authoritarian governments, bigotry, racism and transphobia. Even when there are hard facts against them.
You get banned for stating things like "Russia invaded Ukraine"
Ooh hard facts? I love hard facts! Which hard facts are you talking about?
How about China is, in fact, a dictatorship for starters. The Communist in "Chinese Communist Party" is just there for show.
China is a capitalistic country with a state guidance in their industrial policy and a dictator in the helm.
They don't really even have anything in regards to a national health care.
That could be true. But I wonder, in general, what is the process for determining whether a country is a dictatorship or not, from the outside? China claims to be a democracy and holds elections, like just about every other country under the sun. Of course, not every country with elections is actually a democracy, but if we're talking "hard facts" I think we need to be able to point to specific, objective things.
Isn't the Chinese Communist Party the single largest self-identifying communist party in the world? Shouldn't that factor in, like, at least a little bit into our standards for what defines a communist party? Regardless, this is kind of just your subjective opinion, isn't it? Again, what specific, objective standards are you looking at to distinguish between "real" communism and "fake" communism?
Username checks out
Allowing a fascist to become dictator of the USA will get millions more people genocided than voting for a liberal.
Telling the truth about a liberal, when that truth contains a call to action not to vote against fascism, will get millions more people genocided than shutting up about a liberal.
That's quite a claim. If the US is set to genocide millions of people, then as people at risk of being victims of that, surely we should be treating the US government as the primary threat to our safety, correct?

Lemmy.ml is admin'd and moderated by mostly Marxists. That's the principle reason, everything else stems from hostility towards Marxism and Marxists.
