Appears the creator is an anarchist and is going full authoritarianism and banning “tankies” and people active on r/GenZedong, so I just wanted to remind everyone that this sub (community, or whatever they’re called on Lemmy) isn’t in anyway affiliated with the mod team from Reddit and from the start I intended to keep it that way, in fact, the only reason I know about the ban wave is because I just got hit by it. The reason I made this “thing” is because I disagreed with some of their policies and had a suspicion that they would soon start purging MLs like myself.

Not much else to add. Enjoy your cool America maymays here on Lemmygrad.

    It’s pretty dumb. Especially since I considered myself on pretty decent terms with gzingher after personally requesting they get rid of their stupid “you must post a link” policy.

    But ehhh, it was a 30 day ban. I can return after that, not that I particually want to now that it’s likely going to become a “DAE China/USSR goodn’t!” circlejerk now that the Marxist-Leninists are getting purged.

        As stupid as I think the policy was, that isn’t why I was banned. In fact, gzingher seemed quite open to the idea of removing the policy, hence why I thought we were at least on decent terms. Note that I will absolutely not be bringing said policy onto Lemmy.

        I was actually banned for being a “tankie.”
