Memes about the Fediverse

Tbf the admins of lemmy.ml are the ones who actually develop the service. They deserve our thanks also.
Thank Dessalines for Lemmy and Jerboa
People who name themselves after genocidal warlords can make some pretty good software

Lmao wonder what happened here
Your comment made no sense at first. And then I checked comment counts on other instances π
No drama in this corner of the fediverse :)
Federation works in mysterious ways
we got organic fedi drama, sir
Locking while we sift through all the reports.
Aw, I like talking to you libs. βοΈ
It's slowly starting to look like the next great influx as seen from Fedecan stats.
So just openly anti-leftist and trying to promote Lemmy as another pro-fascism and pro-corporate and pro-war social platform. Real big brain move, doofus.
New Lemmy users, be aware: a lot of the Reddit astroturfers duplicate their efforts here. Lemmy.ml is a leftist and anti-war instance, so it gets a lot of pushback from the astroturfers. Be immediately suspicious of anyone talking shit of Lemmy.ml. Itβs mostly bad actors and pro-war people.
Also, Lemmy.world is chock full of the same abusive and sketchy power mods from Reddit.
lemmy.world news and politics subs are ran by neo lib regime apologists... they follow reddit censorship model.
when the dead CEO happened, they lied they were blocking Luigi discussion because they were legally obligated to do this. that turned to be a fucking lie because the main Luigi sub i hosted on lemmy.world now
The bans will come, just block those communities, there alternatives where proper discourse is permitted.
Reddit rebranded censorship into "modding" but you have to be stupid not to see what this is actually about. The parasite class does not want people having independent discussion on how they are fucking us.
Iβd say the powermods here can be even worse. Immediate bans for anything even slightly leftist in those communities.
.ml also has quite a few USSR- and China-fans (apologists for their crimes, going as far as praising Lenin/Stalin/Mao and similar leaders)
And I wouldn't call .ml anti-war, just look at their stance on Ukraine for example (very common: "Russia had to do it because of the evil west")
Calling Lemmy pro-corporate just reads like a joke. The entire point of it is to be independent from companies.
I also wouldn't recommend Lemmy.world simply because it isn't healthy when one instance gets too big.
Tankies are anti-leftists. Full stop. Dressing it up in Soviet garb doesn't make their ideology any less authoritarian.
Jesus fucking christ dude, the insane obsession you guys over at lemmy.world have with tankies is unreal. Maybe go outside and touch some grass.
It's always the same two instances complaining about the rest of the Fediverse not bending over to bootlick the US overworlds, and accusing the rest of somehow simping for other regimes just on the basis of opposing that. It is seriously getting tedious and insufferable.
On top of that, including lemmy.ml in there is just disingenuous. Grad and hexbear sure, they are spaces openly and deliberately created to discuss leftist politics. But there is literally nothing making lemmy.ml any less generalist than any instance, maybe other than a certain instance that is happy to ban and defederate anyone who dares question the US hegemony. You cannot bind lemmy.ml to "tankism" on any basis other than the Lemmy devs being socialist themselves despite letting anyone of any political creed use their software, unless you are dumb enough to take decontextualized meanwhileongrad-level bullshit seriously.
I moved over from .world to .ml to flee away from this American exceptionalism brainroot and, guess what? It didn't work. I keep seeing the same constant complaints about this fictional group of Lemmy users that really like Putin and Xi or something and weaponizing those complaints to support and enact hostile actions against people and instances discussing anti-capitalist, anti-establishment policy. The only thing that changed is that now, besides that, I can also see leftists users engage in posts from my own account. So, funnily enough, the echo chamber effect became weaker after I moved to .ml.
It was a rather funny timing that this whole discussion about lemmy.ml being a hardcore tankie instance that should be widely defederated etc came to be about at the time that lemmy.world defederated lemmygrad and consequently ran out of red-flavored scapegoats to claim that they are being oppressed by some nebulous left-wing echo chamber.
I give .ml a tiny bit more lenience (think I spelled that right).
But they do remove comments in support of ukraine which is just objectively wrong.
I originally joined .ml excited for a less shit leftist internet space. I really gave it a chance.
But it's the same ML brainrot you find way too often in leftist spaces. It has nothing to do with worker liberation and is just focused on relitigating the cold war and defending different tyrants. I actually spent a lot of time defending ML for leftist diversity I now understand was largely imagined. That stopped when they kept banning me for not licking the boot.
You should look at OPβs post history. Theyβre probably responsible for most of those posts. Theyβre a serious problem poster. Definitely a pro-war, pro-NATO astroturfer. Hardcore anti-leftist psycho.

cmon we just want capitalism to die already π₯Ί
Lol bro most of us want capitalism to die, but not to just replace it with another authoritarian regime
Capitalism cannot be killed by any political movement unwilling to repress Capitalists. Look at the state of Social Democracy and Democratic Socialism the world over, and how in every borgeois democracy it is losing ground to fascism, and either accept the truth or bury your head in the sand.
by supporting capitalist regimes
No, a lot of users, especially on Lemmygrad, support Russia and their invasion, for example. Hexbear supports China's dictator. Most .ml I've interacted with are also on Russia's side.
Don't act like the only thing is anti-capitalism. That'd be fine. It's everywhere on the fediverse. No, those instances stand apart for a reason, and you know that.
