Yea, lemmy is quite mean. I simply unsubscribed to the world news and politics communities. Now, my feed is just filled with cute posts like urs'. Whenever I want to see the talked about news story of the day, I just head on to "All" under "Active".
OH ALSO! Try to block the tankie communities/servers. They're the worst in this regard.
how to access this power im constantly blocking more users and communities and still they find me π
I'm sorry u have to do this :(
Unfortunately, I don't have a good answer to this.
itβs chill! itβs probably simply because i am just far too funny and hot and sexy and beautiful tbh everyone feels intimidated by my presence π
Lol I can tell from ur post history. U'r exactly the type of person I go head over heels for irl lmao

Is lemmy.ml a tankie instance? I honestly missed this.
Lead Lemmy Developer, Dessalines, denying the Tiananmen Square Massacre and praising the Uyghur Genocide

Dessalines AKA "parentis_shotgun" on Reddit, is the main Lemmy dev, also the admin of lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml.
Holy shit, I didn't know!
It is kind of interesting from a historical perspective that the massacre part of Tiananmen Square didn't happen in the Square. Like most police actions from fascist states, it was squads of pigs chasing down protesters after they broke and ran and beating them to death or disappearing them when they're cut off from support.
And, of course, the crowd had to break and run. They weren't armed, and couldn't actually resist riot cops, much less the army.
Saying that he praised a genocide is very dishonest. If I claimed people in the US were forced to go to universities, where they are forcibly sterilized, beaten and indoctrinated, you wouldn't be praising atrocities if you rejected that claim and praised universities for the good they actually do for society.
Yes and no
Some of the mods/admins are tankies, but itβs a popular instance so many users arenβt tankies. Some are tho.
Yes, it used to be obvious from the mod log but they are doing something sketchy with it these days.
