I have noticed a huge difference between Lemmygrad and Lemmy.ml in terms of what kinds of theory gets upvoted and downvoted. What is the general vibe on here towards actually existing socialism as well as the ideas towards reformism?

Being from a 3rd world country that lived under a dictatorship backed by the US in the 60s, I always found difficult to find international, english speaking socialist communities that saw the "US problem" and imperialism in the same light, because the internet is mostly american.

Yes, we can't blame the US for EVERY problem that happened under authoritarian socialist experiences, but holy shit, a lot of problems were and still are the US fault. And on more "mainstream" socialist comunities, people tend to have way more resistance in accepting this.
