TIL lemmy.ml is a pro-authoritarian CCP shill instance - Lemmy NSFW

For all the newcomers that aren’t aware, I just stumbled upon this insane drama. Apparently lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml] is the result of a reddit sub ban of a bunch of pro-china bots who vigorously defend the Chinese government, and the two top admins are also the top devs of the Lemmy source software. Pretty terrible stuff! The linked thread is full of their insane ramblings and denialism.

I think their point of view is closer to the correct one than yours. Either way, who cares? It doesn’t matter what you or I think about China.

Their denial of the Uyghur genocide and that it’s a multi-nation spanning conspiracy to smear china is closer to the correct one?

Yes

How did you even come to that opinion unless you’re actively living in China? Actually even that doesn’t make sense, if you lived in China you would quite literally be blocked from sites like this.

So I take it you don’t live in China either?
