        Make posts there that are either critical of China, Russia (or even Iran) or positive about “the west” and you’ll find out.

        It’ll simply be deleted.

        They pretend to be a general purpose instance, but they’re not. It’s a tankie haven.

        Known for having moderation that’s heavily biased towards left (in a political way), and that defends “tankies”/pro authoritarian, while heavily criticizing capitalism and censoring opinions that they don’t like. Overall they’re not really proactive in that task, but their instance brings the few % of people from hexbear that are too passionate.

        An instance with a political point of view is likely to censor opposing opinions anyway.

            Gather around in your bubble goes against the idea of federation, which is ironic considering ml is the closest to an “official” instance.

            I mean that’s an even other point, but yea, political right is heavily censored and trashtalked, but that’s not only done by lemmy.ml, just by Lemmy not liking political right. We shouldn’t accept certain things, though, but yea, everyone should be able to voice their opinion, as long as it respects human rights and isn’t stated as fact but as an opinion.
