    I’m gonna guess because the instance is administrated by lemmy main devs and despite them being tankies the quality of discussion is still higher than in other instances. You can compare lemmy.ml local home with lemmy.world

      I’ve seen you urging US voters to back third parties despite the mathematical realities of FPTP voting. Of course you prefer discussion on .ml.

        What’s the alternative? Urging them to vote for a fascist or for a genocide supporter?

        Lemmy.world home is filled with memes and news from mass media. Lemmy.ml home looks ten times more serious.

            Unsupporting the red and blue party will shift the power somewhere else from the same two parties that have been ruling for a century. The only thing preventing someone else from winning is the narrative that a third party can never win. The same narrative continues to be told election after election decade after decade, it’s not so hard to see how it’s been used by the government to never really change administration and cycle in power the red and blue party.

          I don’t agree with the atrocity they are committing. Link me to my defense of Israel or (my preference) stop telling lies.

      I’ve completely blocked them and lemmy is still decent.

      I would have thought there would be more concerns with then breaking US/AU or EU laws by there being content explicitly supporting designated terrorist organisations like hezbollah, which is illegal in most of the western world.

        I do not support their tankie mindset and ban policies but i don’t really wish lemmy devs to be persecuted by authorities, especially over comments in an internet forum.

            WARY

            Sorry friend, you were the unlucky perpetrator that I saw today. This is my Long Defeat that I will fight until I die.

              TIL. Thanks. Dunno I use weary or wary enough to have ever even thought about it. 😆
