There are literally openly communist communities on Lemmy… 🤦🏻♂️
Comment on What would you want to see this site do differently from Reddit?

I wish it was 100% devoid of nazis, fascists and other authoritarians.
Unfortunately the main developer of the software is a genocide denying tankie dipshit so fat chance of that happening.

“Communist”
Looks inside
It’s just a bunchbof failed Vanguardist movements that ended up becoming Authoritarian State Capitalism

Authoritarian State Capitalism
Yeah exactly, communism.

Communism is by definition a stateless, classless society. A “Communist State” is therefore an oxymoron.

I’m of the opinion that as large as this community gets (or any community) it’s bound to have many characters.
I guess I don’t mind that much because I think A) You won’t ever have a large site where everyone 100% agrees with you all the way, unless you are on a specific political community and even then I’ve seen many infights and civil wars over small issues.
B) I’ve dealt with many of them in worse sites (Yes even 4chan) that I don’t mind them anymore, as long as they contribute in their own communities and don’t cause harm for the website then they can chirp on their communities as much as they want, I was the kind of guy that enjoyed Political Compass memes on reddit even though it turned to a Right Wing circlejerk in the end.
C) We should absolutely have rules to ban people that post innapropriate, illegal stuff but I feel like this website should be easier than Reddit on the moderating stuff, I’m 100% on banning Nazis and fascists if they make the site worse for everyone else, though I happened to have some interesting conversations with some Conservatives.
Take of this what you will.

I just got blocked from .ml for calling someone a tankie. Good riddance.
