Lol .ml is not leftist, they're authoritarians.

.ml site-bans people for their speech even on other instances, now that's a page right out of the reddit power tripping mod handbook when you'd get banned from a sub because you interacted with another sub they didn't like

At least here the modlog is public and I can document the speech that .ml actually removes

    I do think .ml is a little too intense, but op is also kinda right about .world imo. Come to dbzero, we've got anarchism and piracy

    I think "most" people just believe uncritically the things they were taught growing up, that is until something happens that shakes that belief and they either choose to double down or reexamine their previous assumptions. All the new western tankies from the past decade-ish aren't coming from nowhere!

    Anti-tankies aren’t getting banned because they’re not supporting leftists and Luigi, genius. They’re allowed to stay on Reddit and post NATO propaganda to their heart’s content.

    Tankie!= Leftists, Tankies = authoritarians

    For example, I myself 1000% support Luigi and shit on my gov all the time lmao

    But I am absolutely anti-tankie, because I do not support authoritarianism regardless of if it's the US or China/Russia

    Yes, you’ve attempted to play yourself off as leftist-adjacent to push these topics before. We’ve gotten into back and forths on this multiple times, and every time you’re provided a source that the western talking points you’re pushing are debunked, you repeat the State Dept propaganda verbatim.

    Ah yes, your "sources" that are always random websites, blogs and YT videos with 0 legitimacy. And when you do post a primary source it contradicts your point.

    Or the time you posted a state department source to support your point and not only did it not, it proved that you only deride against sources as "propaganda" when they're against you, but when you think they're for you it's all hunky dory? Lol

    So, it's either support authoritarianism or your not left? What kinda crap is that?

    OP’s referring to when I provided a link from the State Dept admitting they had no evidence of a Uyghur genocide. They also don’t accept non-western sources as legitimate, so demand that you provide a western source to disprove western propaganda.

    Thanks for putting on a show for the flood of new users. Way to immediately out yourself to incoming leftists.

    Lol the state dept link that said they didn't have evidence to meet the strictest definition of genocide, but had evidence of gross serious human rights violations of China

    Yes, they tried to double down in the middle of admitting they’ve been engaged in a years long hoax. Which is what all of the western sources will do, and again you do not consider non-western sources legitimate. An intentional self re-enforcing propaganda loop.

    True, I think .world does over do it a bit, but I think it's more just because they're such a large instance that bad moderation decisions are much more frequent

    Unlike .ml, where the mods/admins methods push a clear narrative

    Thank god you're documenting the very important and widely censored speech like.. checks links "we were gonna ban you anyway!!".

    Phew, this constructive dialogue will not go unheard by the people. Free speech is restored.
