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

    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

          There is valid criticism to be made of entities that are also geopolitical enemies of the US, but repeating the State Department line is a serious red flag, as is whatever you call those zero effort “social credit -20 billion” memes.
