Basically I'm looking for a heterodox political lemmy community where moderate opinions are valued and the level of discourse is pretty good. Where people are there to talk and there's not as much venting.

The thing I didn't know at first is that the reason it's lemmy.ml is because they wanted to be up front that it's "Marxist/Leninist".

I don't think they're as overtly tankie as lemmygrad or beehaw, but, yeah... it's kind of baked in.

I fucking hate all these trendy uses of country codes. I just assumed it was based out of Malaysia or something.

I've also noticed that users of shit.just.works are apolitical assholes, which belies that they aren't apolitical in the first place. And it's a stupid name.

Edit: I didn't mean for that to link.

Mali, not Malaysia. Malaysia is .my.
