I for one have stopped posting any content to lemmy.ml communities.

I like the idea of growing non-ml community, however, I wish larger instances do not block ML. Otherwise, they would just move to lemmy.ee or lemmy.one, just like how they moved from hexbear and grad to ml.

It is great tankies got their own place where they can be happy, and I really don't want to interact with them. I am emotional about issues they engage in, and emotional me usually is not a nice person.

Social media is one of the few ways I can relax for couple hours per week outside of my job, and I really don't want my social media experience to go full investigative journalism.

The irony of a community promoting socialism while also instabanning anyone for the slightest wiff of criticism is just chef's kiss peak representation of why their system is doomed.

If you can't withstand the slightest nudge of criticism how are you even going to attempt to provide a governance system based on any kind of economic directive? If Marx could see what you guys have become he'd personally wipe his ass with your lame ml instance

Can someone inform me about what's wrong with lemmy.ml?

The ml stands for Marxist-Leninist, and the admins are tankies

The iconic Tiananmen square "Tank man" photo, where one guy stands in front of a column of tanks on their way to slaughter pro-democracy protesters, briefly stopping them. Tankies are lunatics that wish for authoritarian communism and so unironically support the tanks running him over.

Not the origin of the word.

This dates back to Hungarian revolution in 1956 and tanks being deployed by USSR.

That's not where the term comes from.
