    I think .ml ban people too for being anti-communist but even if i knew of a good alternative, i don’t think there’s proper migrating on Lemmy like Mastodon has - only making a new account

      Sh.itjust.works pretty much never bans unless you break international law or spam. Unfortunately that means sometimes Nazis come to this instance but usually they’re bullied out.

      As someone that had a .ml account until it was explained to me that racism is explicitly allowed on ml… it’s okay on this instance. You lose hexbear but that’s the only downside.

      Just never fall for .ee or .world. terrible instances, those.

        So what’s wrong with .world really? I didn’t know shit about Lemmy when I signed up and now I have a two year history. I have a dbzer0 account because they align with my values, but I prefer to use this one because my post history is on here.

        .world is the biggest instance and probably has the most new people but what’s really wrong with it?

          The easiest, simplest way I can describe it is .world is 2024 reddit, but if they didn’t have corporate sponsors to blame for their actions.

          Every decision they make from moderation to the type of communities they defederate with aligns with the most milquetoast US neoliberal viewpoint and sensibility. If that works for you, that’s great until you find the edges of your walled sandbox. But most of us were perma site banned from reddit for being too left wing or otherwise offending the sensibilities of people that believe the US is the peak of humanity that just needs people to vote harder to solve all the problems of the world.

        I get .world, but what’s wrong with .ee? I thought that one was supposed to be cool?

          They’ve had some really weird communities pop up in the past and have had some moments of protecting transphobic mods (at least if I remember the PTB comm threads correctly)

        Wait, racism explicitly allowed on .ml?

        That doesn’t sound very Marxist. He was very clear (probably on account of being Jewish)

          Yes, as per their explicit policy, you can never be racist or discriminatory against white people no matter what you say or do.

          Or in other words they believe in the power dynamic version of racism, instead of the idea that racism is discrimination based on race.

            Huh, that’s weird, I don’t see that at all.

            Just “no bigotry,” rule 1.

            I wonder why one of the guys sealioning in defense of Nazis would lie about that?

              Did you misread what I wrote or what little one? I haven’t been defending Nazis, I personally think all Nazis, including most Israelis and Americans, should be explicitly unabashedly killed after a fair trial by a jury of their victims.

              That being said being racist towards white people is not against the bigotry rule on ml. You can find this out for yourself, as I did, by reporting instances of it as you find it.

              If you think you can’t be racist towards white, you’re closer to a Nazi than one of their victims.
