I think a lot of people don't realize that the .ml in lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml stands for "Marxist Leninist". They actually ARE Communist instances so their anti-capitalist stuff is perfectly fine in their instances and communities. If you don't want to see their stuff then block it, otherwise some of us occasionally find it funny and / or thought provoking.

(this was a joke, ml stands for ~~malaysia~~ Mali).

Thanks. I knew it was one of those countries with M and L in the name, in that order.

I've never seen them be "thought provoking", which is what I would have expected. Instead they just whine about "libs" and recommended you go read some novel from 1890 while giving exactly zero reason for you to be interested.

I'm interested in hearing different points of view. Hexbear wasn't that. It was 2015 r/the_donald style propaganda.

I'm actually surprised at how devoid of substance they were. I expected more.

It's nice that the "all" list has vastly improved in quality in a day.

That's a pretty lib response imo.
