What’s with all the downvotes?

Saw a few threads get blasted, and a de-federation post - did I miss the drama?

lemmygrad is geared towards radical marxists supportive of china and/or russia

this means their users (and moderators) come from a far side of the political spectrum and are going to tend towards radicalism and extremism, and that their views tend to align with two hostile dictatorships notorious for their repeated disinterest in citizens rights or basic decency

all of which makes for a hotbed of toxicity with a modteam that doesnt particularly mind as long as its directed towards non-marxists
