    I got banned from Lemmy.world’s political memes community for questioning why mods were removing comments pointing out the Democrat’s involvement with the genocide in Palestine.

    Overall, most users are fine with Lemmy.ml, the haters tend to be concentrated on liberal or otherwise anti-left instances.

      To be clear: I’m not arguing for .world either. We should decentralize and focus on smaller instances

        Sure, but the way to do that isn’t to create tons of general instances, but more specialized ones around a general topic. Lemmy.ml focuses on FOSS and Privacy, and Hexbear focuses on Leftist politics.

          The question of the post/thread is whether the meme communities should all be merged on .ml and that’s what I’m arguing against. I don’t care when .ml people do .ml stuff on .ml. Just don’t move everything there.

              I didn’t say that, that’s an exaggeration. Also, I was coping a comment above mine as a joke. But I still stand to my comment. It doesn’t say “most people” but “all my homies”

                  You put words into my mouth I never said and now you complain that it’s getting into the weeds a bit, but whatever

                    I interpreted your comment as I thought it was meant, I don’t think it was an unreasonable misinterpretation. “All my homies” in your comment was used in conjunction to saying a lot of people would be upset, now you’re just implying it’s only some people and your point makes less sense.

                    It doesn’t matter though, which is why it’s getting into the weeds. This conversation is pointless now.
