  • This is just the same oft repeated toxic nonsense. .ml is no worse than any of the other subs. There has been a fairly steady rachet campaign since I joined to either get leftwing instances banned or encourageing folks to block them.

    People going into a Marxist-Leninist instance trolling with long debunked US-hegemon propaganda are not going to give an honest account of the place.

    On a wider point, there are probably a number of topics that are triggering for some folks in ways that catch people off guard. For instance people both-sidesing issues that if you only follow main stream media might seem a reasonable and popular position but the actual history of the issue can go back many decades and be obscenely unjust. Folks that have been paying attention or, worse, have been personally effected, may have a hair trigger on that issue. It’s very easy for bad faith actors to tone police folks like that. Especially when a majority of people are uninformed on the issue.









  • Go visit it yourself.

    These folks are specifically trying to stir shit. [It’s like walking into an Indian reservation and yelling that we speak English here, that this is a white country and if you don’t like it you should go home. Then they try to get the reservation closed due to the roughing up and expulsion they received] The usual form this takes is repeating long debunked anti-communist propaganda, that a majority of people in the western media orbit have swallowed whole, so the resulting mod action seems disproportionate.

    If you join there yourself you will find, like most instances, respectful conversations and a healthy community. And like anywhere else you will find a spectrum of personalities and a handful of kooks.
