We are scary. Definitely don’t interact with us and find out for yourself.
You sounds as scary as my cat (tried to upload a pic but i get error 413)
that’s because we don’t allow anything that’s scarier than us on ideological grounds. lol
I hear that they are communists, you should probably avoid them
Lemmy.ml is maintained by the Lemmy developers, who are Marxist-Leninists. As a consequence, many users of Lemmy.ml are Marxists of some stripe or Anarchists. Moderation generally favors Marxism, and favors AES states, and does not tolerate Zionism or chauvanism, etc.
Some of the other instances disagree with this general slant on ideological grounds, and have also defederated from Hexbear.net and Lemmygrad.ml, the 2 largest explicitly Leftist instances, so there is frequently sabre rattling.
If you want to learn more about Marxism-Leninism, I keep a Marxist-Leninist introductory reading guide. You can check it out and see if Lemmy.ml is a good fit for you or not.
