Never heard anything about this, are you able to elaborate or provide any links?

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 4 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

The admins have a long history of banning people across the entire instance who are critical of China, North Korea, Cuba etc. That said, you should be fine and if you're happy with the instance then there's no reason to move. Some users like to make a bigger deal out if it than it really is.

The "ml" in the domain is supposed to represent "Marxist Lennist" which the ideology the instance is aimed at.

Well Putin is a dictator, if the admins don’t like me saying that they can ban me

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml -1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

you're not going to get banned for saying that, I would even agree. people get banned for being racist/chauvinist and then run off to cry about evil authoritarian censorship

okay racist/chavinist or ableist you're right I forgot one

So let me get this straight, we can't call Drump "the dumbest president of all time" otherwise it's abelist, is that right? LMAOOO you guys are hilarious sometimes lol 😂

[–] Diva@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

it was probably also that they felt the need to say "even dumber than those North Koreans'

with higbrow humor like that and 'Drump' you really are the John Oliver of lemmy

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Now now, no false narratives please, he very very clearly said dictators it's right there clear as day in the screenshot

The North Korea Dictators LMAO, ig we can't call dictators dumb either lolol 🤣

hey mister, sorry you have such a hard time with the concept that other people have standards

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world -1 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

The admins and mods of .ml are huge Tankies and censor all content critical of China/Russia/NK and will deny they're even dictatorships let alone that they enforce censorship or any other violation of basic human rights

!meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works has a bunch of content documenting what they get up to that you might miss if you're not in the modlog, but ironically for a group that complains about censorship they block that comm from all .ml users at the instance level so you'll have to look at it in a roundabout way.

lemmy.world/c/meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works should work

Great, that’s all I need! I’ll move, Putin is a dictator that invaded Ukraine and anyone who doesn’t understand that can get fucked

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

Haha yea! That one sentence probably would have got you banned if you said it on a .ml comm

If you don't want to deal with them, lemmy.cafe is one instance that defed's from the entire triad (Hexbear.net and lemmygrad are the other 2 major Tankie instances, but they're even worse than .ml, so most instances defed from them including .world)

If you don't mind fighting against them though .world, .ee and the excellently named sh.itjust.works all fed with .ml, but not the other 2

[–] jjjjm182@lemmy.ml 4 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Good to know, how about Lemmy.ca? I'm currently living in Canada so that one probably makes the most sense for me

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

They defed with Hex and Grad, I think they're partially defed'd with .ml they seem to defed some of .ml's subdomains but not the main .ml domain

In general .ca is an excellent instance for Canadians, especially if you're looking to support Canadians, it's all hosted in Canada with Canadian business

Appreciate your help, thank you!
