Lemmy.ml is run by people who spread authoritarian propaganda, most likely the CCP. It's a real stain on Lemmy and people shouldn't support or legitimize it in any way.

most likely the CCP

Yeah you’re gonna need a source for that one. I don’t like ml but you can’t just throw that out there without evidence

What kind of source can I offer? Photocopies of internal CCP propaganda documents? This isn't the kind of thing you can link to a research journal to prove.

The CCP has always relied heavily on propaganda, and is obviously investing on it internationally with things like Tik Tok.

The Fediverse is an easy, easy target. They run their own instance and set their own rules, and there's absolutely no budget and basically no coordination whatsoever to counter disinformation.

So it’s speculative? You’re assuming this is happening and have no evidence other than they’re sympathetic to the CCP? Just so we’re clear.

It’s not my problem or fault that you find it difficult to support your claim.
