When authoritarians don’t fear consequences, there’s is no limit to what they are willing to commit.

Can confirm. Every girl wants the D ino Crisis for Playstation

Hello welcome to the internet, having the collective maturity of an 8 year old boy since 1998.

Delightfully Plutonic Seymour!

This has been a thing in Japan even before the population crisis. This has been a thing in other Asian countries besides Japan! What’s next? “Japan’s economy is so bad, they’re using paper for their doors!” Japan’s population and economic problems are apparent. Why does CNN feel it needs to mislead in order to punctuate it?

I think most are, such as jp for Japan, or ca for canada. I’m not a web designer though.

The domain is, but the reason they chose the domain is because it shares the initials of marxist-leninist.

Seriously though, did Youtube recommend us all that video?

I have seen my fair share of tankies here, so there definitely is a presence of them here. But I also do think a lot of the complaints come from people who assume any leftist user or post is also a “tankie.”

Like I do see a lot of leftist memes posted to [email protected], which might be where a lot of the complaints are coming from. Likewise there has been a lot of drama with hexbear federating with a lot of communities that were previously shielded from them.

Considering what is known about lemmy, its creators, and the original instances, it seems to hold up. But regardless of the true meaning of ml, the political leanings of lemmy.ml were very far left before the reddit migration, and I feel that’s the reason why you see such an aggressive presence of communist memes on ml’s meme page.

This site is in the process of fighting its own culture war. You have the hardcore communists, anarchists and tankies who were here the longest, and the meme page is on one of their original domains (the ml in lemmy.ml is supposed to stand for marxist-leninist ). And then you have the twitter and reddit refugees who in general lean more center left, liberal, or libertarian. ml was the domain that was advertise the most to people on reddit, and world was where people were directed to once ml’s sign ups were limited.

[email protected] is kinda going throught the gaybar effect with the influx of redditors. Like sometimes when a gaybar gets popular, it attracts non-queer customers, who tell their friends, who invite their friends, to the point the original queer customer base gets crowded out. I imagine that’s what the marxist-leninist community base is feeling now that a lot of former redditors call their instance home, and their meme page is the defacto meme community of lemmy.

As long as the mods here allow it, and as long as people keep upvoting, this problem isn’t going away, no matter how many complaint memes get posted. The best solution I can think of is boost other meme pages on different instances, maybe with mod teams that are more willing to keep the page apolitical (which is hard to do in general cause everyone’s definition of political is different.) kbin has a fairly large meme community that could use some more love, same with [email protected]. Hell, considering most users are from world or shitjustworks, I’m surprise I don’t see their local meme pages get more use.

Well then they wouldn’t be here would they.

Insulin is now free!

Oh hey lemmygrad user, funny you should mention that…

Not missing much. They all still taste like child slavery.

Waiting for lemmygrad to try to convince us how this is a good thing.

Right. It sound like you are just fine with it as long as its not monopolized. Or at least committed by the right powers.

Oh you mean like the 19th century, when there were several European powers carving up Africa, Asia, and the Pacific?

Me: I know, I’ll choose…

Linux community: WRONG!!!
