BeeHaw will supposedly censor what they deem to be "hate speech"

I've heard reports about lemmy.ml censoring criticism of the CCP. how true this is i don't know. One of the devs apparently also runs Lemmygrad

Yeah I read that the main Dev of Lemmy is big supporter of communism.

So long as he keeps the lemmy updates coming i don't care what he believes

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Yeah I think the same.

What do you mean "read" I visited his Lemmy profile and found a communist politician on his banner

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

He also has essays writing against capitalism and the support of communism.

Just as long as the censorship of the CCP criticism isn't true, I don't care

Censorship of CCP criticism would be in the modlog if it were true. I've only been here a couple weeks but the only things I see the admins refuse to tolerate are racism, homophobia, and hate speech in general. They don't allow porn but that has more to do with practical challenges than any (expressed) problem with other people wanting it.
