Can someone inform me about what's wrong with lemmy.ml?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 13 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Lemmy.ml is the instance admin'd by the developers of Lemmy, who are Marxists. Lemmy.world is admin'd and moderated by liberals who generally are hostile towards Marxism, and have defederated from the 2 largest explicitly Marxist instances as a result.

Users generally prefer Lemmy.ml or Lemmy.world depending on their opinions on Marxism and Communism vs liberalism and Capitalism. We are on Lemmy.world right now, which is going to have far more people agreeing with OP than if this was posted on Lemmy.ml, where users hold the opposite opinion, that Lemmy.world is a problem (generally).

The ml stands for Marxist-Leninist, and the admins are tankies

I am thinking about tanks, explain.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 12 points 22 hours ago

"Tankie" is a pejorative used against Marxists, though I've seen it even used against Anarchists these days.

Comrade Hakim made a great video explaining the origins of the term and exploring how it is used.

Their users often argue for authoritarian regimes and deny genocides.

Whereas worldist don't deny genocide, they'll just say "it's unavoidable because both sides want it anyway so it doesn't really matter because you have to stay realistic so it's not much of a deal really nobody cares".

I wish more people would defederate from .world lmao
