You best either be pro “communist” or not really talk about politics at all of you want to go to lemmy.ml
It’s run by the same people who run lemmygrad and their moderation policies reflect that
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 3 days ago:
you could look for instances with no stated political goals.
I’m on a general instance for UK people. do the admins have biases? probably. but as far as i can tell it’s not an instance with a political goal.
Above all avoid the tankie triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net are not recommended unless you’re into… that sort of thing
- Comment on A postal worker in Harlem attacked a trans woman. She fought back and fatally stabbed him in self-defense. This is how the NY Post framed it. 6 days ago:
it’s a dogwhistle. they’re implying that trans people are mentally ill and that the postal worker is a victim of inaction with or indulgence in the trans population.
It’s the same reason why all the chuds started banging out about how violent trans people are when that trans man (if i remember correctly) shot up a school a year or so ago.
despite the fact that the overwhelming amount of school shooters are cis right wing incels

- Comment on The UK government is considering mandatory chemical castration for sex offenders – it’s an ethical and legal minefield 1 week ago:
It lowers sexual function, it doesn’t always stop it
- Comment on The UK government is considering mandatory chemical castration for sex offenders – it’s an ethical and legal minefield 1 week ago:
“We’ll let you go if you chemically castrate yourself” is just another way of saying “We’ll detain you if you don’t”
It’s still a threat of violence in an attempt to coerce someone into a medical treatment that they don’t want
- Comment on The UK government is considering mandatory chemical castration for sex offenders – it’s an ethical and legal minefield 1 week ago:
i’m all for it being a voluntary option so long as it’s not a condition for parole.
We should not be forcing this on people though

- Comment on Do you actually audit open source projects you download? 1 week ago:
If it’s a project with a couple hundred thousands of downloads a week then no, i trust that it’s been looked at by more savvy people than myself.
If it’s a niche project that barely anyone uses or comes from a source i consider to be less reputable then i will skim it

- Comment on Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss to launch ‘free speech’ social media platform 1 month ago:
Oh good, yet another twitter clone social bubble.
I don’t get why they keep developing separate ones. at some point it has to be quicker to just fork mastodon and defederate from all other instances
