Which part? Posting being value? They tried to use Marx' Labor Theory of Value to say that because admins aren't decided democratically, and posting is labor and therefore creates Value, Lemmy is Capitalist.

This is, in fact, ridiculous, because Lemmy has a Use-Value but no Exchange-Value. Posting isn't labor, and anyone can fork it.
