As a person who just left reddit due to being tired of reddit mods’ power tripping, I asked folks here what are their reasons behind migrating here from other forums (most likely reddit too). It seems like none of the folks who answered had complaints on reddit mods. Do folks here not feel the same about reddit mods as I do?
I heard Lemmy mods are volunteers too. How do they compare to reddit mods? Did Lemmy do anything to ensure no power abuse to happen?
Really, nazis?
Or is this another “anyone even slightly to my left is immediately and permanently all the way to my right” thing?
They are highly sympathetic to the Russian federation and the CCP. Making criticisms to either will get your account banned from Lemmy.ml.
In my opinion, it is reasonable to say that China is a fascist state due to its genocide of Uyghur people, language and culture. I also believe it is reasonable to label Russia as a fascist state, due to the kidnapping of Ukrainian children to Russia, war crimes and crimes against humanity committed towards the Ukrainian people and the banning of the Ukrainian language in Russian occupied schools. These both show clear intent to both eliminate people and their culture.
That doesn’t mean they are Nazis, though. Instead, they are Tankies.
Nazis are authoritarian, but not all authoritarians are Nazis. ML (along with lemmygrad and Hexbear) is full of tankies, not Nazis.
