A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
For more context: I already had the communism and lefty communites blocked. I'd consider myself middle-left of the political spectrum but personally don't believe in some grand revolution saving us all. Most left communities on here seem to far out there for my personal taste at least. My comment is deleted but if you wanna see the post here's the link.
ml stands for Marxist-Leninist. When anyone is allowed to make their own instance, and instances or users can defederate or block what they don't want to see, why can't an instance be political? That's like saying "no political communities!" Just block them and move on, just as they can do the same. You commented in the memes community of a communist instance and got annoyed that you got banned for being anti-communist. Plenty of instances out there, they don't all need to cater to every person.
Its just that ml mentions itself being a general lemmy instance. Their description on join-lemmy.org is "A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers". I'm a FOSS and privacy enthusiast who likes Lemmy. I just happen to not like communism agenda pushed when I scroll through some memes. I definitely wouldn't say I'm some uncivil person. Sucks for me that ml is the second largest instance and they have the biggest memes community.
