Is there a way to shop around for a Lemmy instance based on how many instances are blocking it and how many instances it’s blocking? For example, I noticed that the lemmygrad.ml instance is relatively popular, but it seems like a lot of other instances block it. It also blocks a bunch of other instances. So, if there are any communities on there that might be relevant to me then I would be missing out. I guess I could just create an account on a walled instance, but I would prefer not to keep creating accounts. I’d like to just find one instance that maximizes my access. Is the answer to just run my own instance?
I’m not speaking about you specifically, I have no idea who you are. I’m talking about lemmygrad in general. Just like the person you were responding to was talking about. He asked “what did lemmygrad.ml do?” And I’m clarifying that.
It’s not that lemmygrad.ml is simply “communist.”
This dude is sealioning you, block and move one.
It’s not sealioning to respond to someone who’s engaging me by questioning their arguments.
They’re not sealioning, they’re responding to a bunch of strong, reasonably insulting allegations. Maybe not responding gracefully, but they’re not sealioning.
In fact, I don’t even think it’s possible for one reply to be sealioning, the whole point is that it’s repetitive harassment (as stated in the wiki link you posted). That’s why the original comic strip that defined it has so many panels.
Generally, when you describe a group it’s understood that you’re describing members of that group. As a Lemmygrad user, you’ve called me “mindless” and “propagandized” (with no provocation or context). This is rude. You’ve also chosen to engage with me while taking part in a strange farce about how you wouldn’t choose to engage with me.
I thought I was pretty clear when I first asked: what is your experience with Marxism-leninism that you feel comfortable making this statement?
I’m not basing my statement off of any experience with Marxism-leninism. I’m basing it off of my experience with lemmygrad posters here on Lemmy. For example, this thread about the Tienanmen Square anniversary. I don’t particularly care about the specific political ideologies on display.
As you don’t have any experience with Marxism-leninism, why do you feel comfortable saying “the countries they fawn over aren’t even particularly communist”?
SWCC is clearly communist, based on Marxism-leninism.
I don’t care what you learned in 7th grade history. The communists are right. Krause and Nomad seem to share plenty of primary sources in that thread. I don’t care about changing your mind, so I won’t rehash that thread here.
This is a lie. You’ve chosen to engage with me about communism, from an anticommunist perspective. You don’t think you’re political, because your politics are ingrained into your very being.
