I’ve seen several references to some sort of rift between the users of these instances today. What’s happening?

    Supporting communists is not the same as worship. The devs and mods are certainly ideologically committed, but not out of sheer blind religious adherance.

        No? I’m a communist, and I support communism. Worship has nothing to do with it. Can you explain what you mean by that?

          If you’re truly clueless and not just feigning ignorance, then head on over to !worldnews@lemmy.ml and say something critical of a communist leader.

          See how quickly you get banned.

          You are feigning ignorance though because that’s how indoctrinated you are.

            I’ve been critical of communists and communist leaders before, I think you’re confusing disinformation being removed with any and all critique being removed. Critique based on disinformation isn’t valid critique.

              Sure you did. You’re going to say whatever you think will defend your indoctrination.

              That’s how this works.

              Anyone with a brain can look at the lemmy.ml modlog to see for themselves that you’re full of shit.

                I’ve mentioned that the PRC is lacking in LGBTQIA+ rights (though they are improving), that population transfer in the soviet union was one of its worst crimes, that Stalin’s homophobia was deeply reactionary, that I’d prefer if the PRC was more millitantly anti-imperialist than they are presently, that revisionism and mismanagement began a trend of liberalization in the USSR that contributed to its collapse, that the PRC made a huge error in backing Cambodia against Vietnam, and much more than this.

                I’m not “indoctrinated,” and anyond can look at the Lemmy.ml modlog to see for themselves that you’re full of shit.

                    Can you elaborate for the crowd what specifically I said is delusional? Do you think the critiques I have are actually good things? Do you think they didn’t actually happen?

              Maybe you weren’t banned because you wre from .ml they have banned me on an alt account for expressing my opinion that soviet occupation didn’t help my country.

                Modlog link? I maintain that critique based on disinformation isn’t valid critique, so it depends on what you said.
