Apparently there’s an issue with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?

      What would be the point. There is no points system in the federation.

      It’s already too late for that. Without assessing why it happened on Reddit and how it should be stopped, there is no reason to believe it would not be reproduced here. It was not assessed, let alone stopped, and thereby has been reproduced.

        I was always under the assumption it was some weird alt right thing where they just pretend criticism of China gets censored.

          It’s funny how anticommunists and rightists seem to overlap so much, even when the anticommunist claims to be progressive.

        I mean what was lemmy supposed to do? It already removed karma. People just like approval and attention

          I mean this more on an instance moderation level. It’s not just “monke brain neuron activation”, it is a culture of ignorant chauvinism and low-effort engagement-farming
