Welcome! We’ve got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you’re a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz. !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you’ll have to post before you can leave.

We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian “communists” who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the “gold standard”), but here they’re mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a .world account so you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you’d rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

Yes and no, this topic comes up fairly frequently, and generally…nobody knows the best solution forward LMAO

piefed.social is a Lemmy “competitor” and is intended to be fully interoperable, but in practice it hasn’t matured yet and it’s interoperability with the Lemmy-verse is decent but has its quirks

But a big thing there is they have a multi sub type feature to combine comms like that

But some people also like the multiple comms, because they can have different viewpoints and culture.

Like lemmy.ml is a huge Tankie instance and their c/memes comms moderation skew towards censoring of comments and posts critical of Russia/China/NK and allows political memes

Where as c/meme on .world have banished most political memes directing them to !politicalmemes@lemmy.world instead

Well there’s !politics@lemmy.world and !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world !progressivepolitics@lemmy.world

For anarchism specifically, I’m not sure, I think !anarchism@slrpnk.net maybe

For religion, not sure, religious comms are quite small here ATM, maybe !atheism@lemmy.world could be a good fit

Trying to shore up against .ml brigading, before I was instance-banned so .ml users couldn’t see my posts n stuff. Then 2 months later, totally not coinciding with a recent meme I posted, davel was so kind as to fix that and only manually ban me from .ml comms individually so that .ml users could see and brigade my posts and comments again

Well yea, but one of the favored line of arguments is the “The CCP has a 95% approval rating!”, which is probably true, but there’s a good reason for it. And you know I don’t blame the Chinese people one bit, if all I and my parents had known was death and famine and an authoritarian government came in and brought stability and prosperity for the first time in generations, id look the other way on a ton of things too

Edelman is a global communications firm that partners with businesses and organizations to evolve, promote and protect their brands and reputations.​

Sounds like they don’t care about the truth, only making whatever their clients want to be “presentable”/accepted and how much they get paid for it.

Clearly the people of China trust their government and since you have yet to provide a source explaining how their government is organized we can only go with my source which clearly indicated that there is direct democracy

And you’re operating without understanding the historical reasons for it. For the Chinese people the CCP is leagues better than what came before. What came before the CCP was…quite bad. So from their POV and objectively, yes the CCP is pretty decent for the Chinese people as they would sacrifice things like freedom of speech because of the stability the CCP provides.

But what’s good for them does not automatically translate to good for the world, especially in countries where basic human rights have been somewhat enjoyed to varying degrees
