Are you asking why Lemmy has a lean towards political activism? Why the political activism is so heavily focused on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict? Or why they've chosen the side that they have within that conflict?
All three are completely different questions, and all of them are complicated and also pretty much impossible to answer with any real confidence. But they're interesting.
Anyways, which is the biggest thrust of your question?
I am talking about apolitical communities, or those that are supposed to be apolitical at least, i apologize if I haven't made it clear enough in my original thread.
Lemmy doesn't have many enforced apolitical communities. Because even the meaning of apolitical is contentious and arguably political.
Actually, suprisingly, maybe not "enforced" but it does have a lot of vibrant and different communities not related to politics.
I mean the moderators don't usually take down political things from what I've seen. Memes on .ml for example is specifically okay with propaganda posters.
And every other nations’ propaganda, notably Western’ nations. * appear on every other instance.
