I know this post will probably be downvoted to hell, give me much problems and probably will make my account being banned but you have to know that i take no side writing this.

So i wanted to take a look at lemmygrad.ml to see if it was as it’s reputation is(im not the kind of person to follow the herd without thinking by myself) and apparently lemmygrad never defederated with any instances without consulting it’s members(which lemmy.world and others instances did).

So i was thinking, isn’t censoring content without asking your community a totalitarian thing like north korea or any so-called totalitarian country could have done ?

I know i may be incorrect but i accept any kind of criticism against this post if it’s constructive, “shut up hidden tankie” or any kind of free insult isn’t a valid arguments, if you really defend democracy as i do im sure you can debate while being civilized.

    I’m no longer a leftist, but when I was a leftist (and yes, I mean “real” leftist, critical support for AES states and other such nonsense), there were no objections to dictatorships or censorship. I don’t know where you got the idea that leftists love democratic absolutism and freedom in every aspect of society.

    Also I hate to tell you, but many leftists (dengists) here think highly of modern North Korea and China.

      not all leftist are the same, I can say with pretty high confidence that despite mostly being real leftist very few lemmy.blahaj.zone users support the current government of north korea
