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.

Yep. Some of the mods that mod 5+ communities are openly calling NATO fascist.

There’s a lot of pro-china sentiment where users encourage people moving to china, denying Tianmen Square events, and encourage full annexation of Taiwan.

It’s just lemmingrad 2.0

I block every .ml instance on sight, as they’re laced with tankie propaganda/agenda.

openly calling NATO fascist

No lies detected. Fascist dictatorship Portugal was a founding member.

If you honestly think that modern day NATO is fascist, you’re either uninformed, misinformed or a moron.

Oh yeah, now they have known bastions of democracy Turkey, Hungary and Poland as members.

Ask Serbians, Afghans, Iraqis and Libyans what they think of your wholesome 100 NATO.

So a moron. See you on the block list.
lol, typical liberal cowardice. No comeback to a well argued post? Better block them so I don’t have to think about my worldview in any way!

It’s just not worth devoting the time to argue with people like yourself who are so indoctrinated and misinformed. Your maladaptive thinking style can’t even begin to be reprogrammed until you yourself realize that you’ve fallen victim to this.

So there’s just no reason to devote time and effort articulating a well-argued retort with supporting evidence when your beliefs aren’t based in reality, you can’t effectively scrutinize accurate information, and your beliefs are so deeply internalized and unwilling to be challenged, that it feels like devoting the time of day to argue with a toddler who can’t grasp the concept you’re discussing.

The truth is, trying to debate people like you is a useless, fruitless waste of time. You’re going to reject information, truths and logic you do not like, and your delusional beliefs will remain insulated by rationalization and other maladaptive coping strategies to reduce the cognitive dissonance you experience when you have that momentary realization that your beliefs may not be accurate.

The truth is you’re just a waste of time for reasonable people to engage with. I’m not going to waste my time debating you here, but feel free to respond and get the last word in. I know that helps people feel like they’ve “won” an argument. You can respond with ad hominem, deflection, and baseless accusations against me like you’ve done to others. Doesn’t change the fact that you’re damaged goods no one here feels obligated or interested in engaging with.

That’s a lot of words for a post that essentially says nothing. Hopefully someone makes an AI version of Fragmaster’s nerd voice, so that insufferable post can be read out loud by it.

The funny thing is that all I said was NATO was bad because they tolerate fascist members and attacked a bunch of countries for no reason…which is all based on facts.

I block all pro-ruscist accounts. Congratulations for making the cut!

Saying NATO is bad = pro-Russia

Liberal arguments at their finest 👍
