Crossposted here because the tankie admins of lemmy.ml censored this comment and banned my lemmy.ml alt for “racism” because of it:
“Yeah, only the CCP is allowed to destroy China’s cultural heritage!”
At this point it’s probably better to move the larger default communities like World News, Technology, Memes, etc. to less extremist instances, because you never know what kinds of discussion the ideologues over there are censoring.
In many ways, lemmy.ml is worse than reddit. On Reddit we mostly only had to deal with power tripping mods. On lemmy.ml we also get power tripping admins in top of everything.

The admins on Reddit have been shitty for a long time too.
Not denying that, but for the most part they weren’t involved in censoring random comments on random subs.
