Saw a post saying some shitty Christian lemmy instance was spamming bullshit on one of their latest posts, I said something along the lines of “probably Russians”. Come to find out my comment was removed and I was banned… then to find out they effectively have a CCP agent running town… lol.

I’ve seen people mention they were a garbage instance, now I know why! They said I broke rule 1 … this might just be the app I’m using but they don’t even have any fucking rules to look at lmao.

Glad they did the work for me and made it easy to avoid them.

I mean, what do you expect from an explicitly (m)arxist-(l)eninist instance. Their entire religion is "west bad, russia and china literally the best" and censoring any wrongthink. And yet there you are implying Russia is behind a bad thing. Of course they'd take action against you.

Imo fediverse projects really need to federate instance rules. Just include them in the instance actor (if they aren't already) like you'd do with a community, then use them if available.

Fwiw, one can be a Marxist Leninist and think Russia's government sucks. It is anything but Marxist or Leninist.

I know you didn't mean that, but figured it needed to be said.

Yeah, but the tankies still love them. It's weird. Putin openly acknowledges he's trying to rebuild imperial Russia, not the USSR, and still.

honestly I think memorizing TLDs for Geoguessr a few years ago made me think Malaysia before i ever considered .ml to stand for marxist leninist lmao

It’s Mali’s TLD, they just like that it lines up with Marxist-Leninist

Fuck now you’re telling me I mixed up Malaysia and Mali?! Just put me out of misery now

Malaysian here. I was gonna make you feel better by pointing out the similarities between us but after looking them up... Yeah, I got nothing.
