I was downvoted because I said that barbie is not feminism, a statement which is bare minimum of center left feminist ideology.

Lemmy is definitely not all leftist.

It might be seen leftist by US standard, but overall, with the exception of few well known instances, it is not really "extreme left", probably not even overwhelming left

I would bet any amount of money that at least 50% of lemmy posts are shitting on capitalism. Couple that with the fact that people tolerate some amount of tankie'ism, I'd say lemmy is extreme.

Let me ask you this, if you had a website with a community that relentlessly mocks communism and/or socialism, and lets some nazi posts rise to the top, what would you call that website?

I don't know anything about Barbie so I can't say anything about that. But I know that not all of lemmy is extreme, of course there's gonna be some normal everyday content.

Reddit?

When did any post that had Nazi propaganda get to the front page?

And I don't know what are you talking about with the mocking socialism in Reddit. They even have the LateStageCapitalism sub, which is pretty popular.
