Yeah, I mean, over the years, I've gone far left enough that I believe that capitalism must be dismantled as it's incompatible with democracy. I'm not exactly conservative. But good god, some parts of Lemmy would make me out to be a Gilded Age Robber-Baron for calling out Russia as an imperialist fascist state. It's insane. And exhausting. I hate dealing with it.

Luckily, it's not nearly as bad as it was back when Grad and Hexbear were still federated.

I've been on Lemmy some 8 months I think and I've never seen anyone do that. I have seen plenty of Ruski trolls spamming "don't vote genocide Joe", but I haven't really seen anyone pretending to be for the Russian side in the Russo-Ukrainian war.

Maybe your instance defederated with them already.

Oh they're still around. I have about a dozen tagged. But lately with calling them out they've crawled back to mainly posting in .ml instance posts.
