I've seen several references to some sort of rift between the users of these instances today. What's happening?

ML is run by heavily-indoctrinated communists. They're the type that straight up worship communist leaders.

It's run by Russia bots who are pumping out Kremlin talking points whilst deleting anyone who is critical.

I got deleted for pointing out Putin runs a mafia state.

Shit even the Russian communist don't like Putin.

From checking the modlog you got a comment removed and a temp ban for insulting someone

Is it an insult against Putin to declare he is running a mafia state?

I wonder how much the "Russian running ML" is getting paid to shape the opinions of all 25 people on this platform. Must be making bank

Great to see straight up McCarthyism come back into fashion. Why consider other views when you can just declare anyone who disagrees with you to be a non-human foreigner.

Kremlin and China.

It's a shame, because I do think China is doing a lot of things correct right now. But these people make me question every fucking thing I read about them.
