I like how some people are claiming americans are aware of this lol

If most americans were sufficiently aware and organizing against it accordingly (if they're not organizing, they're not aware enough) the imperialist gov would already have been toppled.

The hardest part of establishing a socialist state isn't dealing with material conditions... it's dealing with the US constantly trying to overthrow it even if you're on the other side of the planet.

This, folks, is how not to have a conversation

Honestly, seeing enough of their posts and discussions over the months turned me from left-leaning to a full-blown commie

Fortunately anyone using Lemmy is likely not one of those "most users"

Banning users with certain "opinions" isn't a bad thing on its own, but on .world that grain seems to be the corporate-bootlicking grain of Reddit.

Imo the issue here is that how Lemmy works right now, or maybe just its apps, seems to have the trend of pushing most people onto the largest instance(s) like .world

If the point of the Fediverse is to have a decentralized userbase, that trend needs to be reversed.

Even if we give .world admins the benefit of the doubt and say they got in legal trouble or something this time, having a userbase properly spread across many instances would prevent that instance from being the obvious target.
