Almost everything on Lemmygrad top lists are posts showing lib/fash/libfash content. Like, I get that they’re mocking and calling out such content and absolutely not echoing those sentiments, but it’s still super depressing. Not an exaggeration, I see more libfash stuff from Lemmygrad than I see on Lemmy.ml or explicitly lib instances. Posted ironically or not, it’s super depressing and definitely doesn’t help my mood or my enthusiasm for socialism, and it’s not just limited to dedicated libfash mockery communities, but most major Lemmygrad communities are filled with libfash.

I definitely don’t want to antagonise anyone who posts that stuff, but IDK, I miss when Lemmygrad was almost all about sharing communist content, not sharing libfash, even in mockery.

    I had the same feeling and it was tiresome to even browse the front page here until I blocked all of the communities dedicated to posting libfash cringe. There’s actually a surprising amount of actual communist content in here which is very enjoyable to read and reply to, but it gets lost among all of the cringe. I don’t know if you’re already blocking those communities but either way, this is how my block list looks like:

      I also wish GenZedong was dedicated to explicitly communist memes instead of mocking libfash, especially when we have dedicated shit_____say communities for that.

        Agree, we should probably moderate that a bit more so it doesn’t have that type of content.
