Apparently many of lemmys developers are hard core tankies, basically Russia and China apologists who deny/justify China's genocide, and support Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

I can't say much for smaller instances, but in some of the bigger instances like lemmy.ml, some anti Ukraine articles get traction. I haven't really noticed in as much in kbin and .world, but knowing where the devs stand, I try to follow the Ukraine war on platforms outside of lemmy to avoid possible misinformation.

Good to know. I hate absolutes, but if you support the Russian and or Chinese government, you're either a moron or a piece of shit.

Thank you, definitely have more to look into there!

@Roundcat Thanks for this, I really wanted to know what people meant by they accept genocide and it does make me feel like maybe i'll love across to Kbin a bit more as atm questioning if Lemmy or Kbin is the best fit for me. I do thankfully use Lemmy.world but if Kbin is more accepting and useable might just move across to here. Again, Thank you.
