Your account seems new @blueridge@feddit.nu, sorry you had to deal with this but this is what happens on the tankie instance that is .ml
Join the .ml boycott today! No posts, comments or upvotes on any .ml comms!
Somehow I feel lemmy.ml got more extreme over the last two years. RT news is the official foreign propaganda channel of Russia, almost everybody knows this (at least in Europe)…
Originally, .ml was the flagship instance for a fledgeling new software project, and the devs had to try and keep the mask on as much as they could for it to be a general purpose main instance. But over time that mask slipped, and users fled to other instances. Which means the only users left on .ml today are the fellow tankies. And knowing that, now they don’t seem to try to hide it anymore.
The annoying thing is there definitely are a subset of ML users who aren’t tankies. And just kind of obliviously joined that instance because it was recommended to them.
My first lemmy account was on ML.
long overdue to defederate
lots of them have smurf accounts on other instances anyway these days
It probably has, they’ve spent just the last almost 2 years or so of Lemmy-verse growth since the Reddit API debacle banning, censoring and ostracizing newcomers that didn’t fit in with the tankie mindset
They’ve become the echo chamber they always accuse .world/.ee/SJW of being
I’ve noticed the same thing. I do think part of it is .ml has been accruing users from other, more widely defederated instances like lemmygrad and hexbear.
Trolls want an audience, after all.
Why dont you just fuck back to reddit then ? You do know that lemmy is the foss project of marxists? Might be happier at stormfront / reddit
