            The brooklyn lib seems to be encroaching on your territory in the world news community, turning it into /r/worldnews! Keep up the good fight, yogthos. I’m new to Lemmy in general and I’m sad to see I missed the days before the liberal invasion.

                Yes, note that it’s basically 5 people again just spamming their shit all over plus the oldtimers who for some reason were not banned like pingveno or that Romanian guy.

                I don’t even think they are necessarily the reddit libs, look like how they promote beehaw all the time, most likely those are the same guys as always.

                  tbf to the devs, despite being comrades, I get why they want to maintain more of a neutral instance, they already get people whining and calling them evil tankies for not banning us, like that one mastodon user (who insists that everyone should switch to kbin instead!!!), could you fucking imagine the shit storm if they started banning libs like that?

    Perhaps they may come here and learn about and socialize with others who hold mutual views which the liberal faux left exclude (revolution, Russia, pragmatic material progress as opposed to performative optics and left aesthetics, etc…)

      I find lemmy.ml instance acts as a good middle ground where people from the mainstream are relatively comfortable, and we can engage them and help educate. I like Lemmygrad being an explicit ML instance where we don’t constantly have to debate the merits of communism.

        Biggest problem is that the lib instances are basically immediately blocking us as soon as they’re created

        Did you see what is happening in the blinken thread right now? There are fucking libs coming out unironically with takes like “I always though US military is bloated but this was is a wake up call for me”, “just this once US is right” and even “US needs to spend more on weapons”

        That’s self-writing meme.
