Yet another lemmy instance proudly hosted in Montreal, Canada. Still need to get a icon created, if there are any designers here who would like to contribute please feel free to post!

This all is cool, but I'm sad the biggest instance by far is admined by tankies. Like this guy gets quickly banned for posting articles about North Korea and Russia in the world news community.

I really don't see this popping off if new instances aren't willing to block the "main" instance.

He didn't get banned that quickly, he basically called out tankie propaganda for a week before they banned him.

The beauty of this platform is that we actually can block the main instance and also create as many world news communities of our own as we want. It won't take long before the OG communities are outnumbered anyway.

What's a tankie?

[–] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

A communist who is supportive of authoritarian regimes like Stalin/Mao zedong. They tend to think in terms of opposing capitalism, and therefore any regime which challenges US hegemony can be justified regardless of horrific human rights abuses.
