The administration of lemmy.ml routinely abuses its rule 1 anti-bigotry policy to conduct political censorship, deleting documented facts regarding the ukraine invasion, holodomor, and xinjiang abuses under false pretexts of imperialist propaganda, misinformation, and nazism while leaving pro-Kremlin talking points untouched.
Verifiable public moderation logs prove this systemic shielding of state propaganda, down to moderators inverting standard geopolitical context, such as noting that fringe extremist units do not make an entire democratic nation fascist, to ban dissenters under the explicit excuse of being a Nazi.

The Europe community moderator (https://lemmy.world/u/geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml), who focuses exclusively on criticizing the West and never Russia or China, banned me as a Nazi.
I decided to block the lemmy.ml instance entirely to avoid any further interaction.

I didn’t see any comment removal on lemmy. world for criticising a politician or a country. I criticize everything, including mine, when needed. But Lemmy.ml doesn’t tolerate any criticism. Yes, f lemmy.world admins acted like Lemmy.ml admins; I would defederate.
Maybe you don’t see any comments removed on lemmy.world because you agree with mods there on most topics? I had comment deleted that simply stated some facts about trans rights. I never had a comment deleted on lemmy.ml, probably because I don’t engage in discussions about Russia that much. I sounds like you don’t mind censorship as long as you’re not the once who’s being censored. A bit hypocritical in my opinion.
You can check my comment history and will see that I criticize israel/usa imperialism,ukraine’s corruption and Europe. My comment is tolerated and dont get deleted. I don’t get banned. western platform tolerate critics of USA and Israel. Even pro-russia propaganda stay up on twitter and youtube. They don’t ban it unless extremist or incite violence.
lemmy.ml different. I criticize Russia , normal geopolitical analysis, not extremist and get ban. comment deleted and hidden from public. Freedom not unlimited in West. Yes, criticize Israel in USA get labeled anti-semitism. yes, AIPAC pressure people. But I still can post. Still can argue back. platform dont hide my comment. This is the difference. Western platform hide extremist. Tolerate dissent and enemies. Even Iranian government can share their news/report in enemy platform(Twitter,youtube)
Lemmy.ml hide dissent. Tolerate propaganda and one direction only. You say I hypocritical because I use Western platform to criticize them. Wrong. Exact reason prove point , Western platform ALLOW me do this. They tolerate enemy voices. Lemmy.ml do not. I use ‘enemy’ word ,because they see like this not I see.
Russia platform? They jail critics. Dont tolerate at all. Western imperfect but exist. Lemmy.ml and Russia? No freedom for opposition. You know Putin doesnt tolerate criticism. Alexei Navalny(Russian opposition leader) was a dissident, and he ended up dead in prison. These tankies are the online version of them.
That is the fact
No, I say it because you oppose censorship you don’t like but ignore censorship you do like. I mentioned trans rights and you immediately assumed it was hate speech. My comment mentioned this story: https://www.rtve.es/noticias/20240821/hombre-cambia-sexo-evita-carcel-violencia-machista-sevilla/16223379.shtml
The mod decided it’s misinformation or something. Because mods on lemmy.world delete comments that don’t fit their worldview. They might be more tolerant of different opinions on politics but on other topics they act exactly the same way mods on lemmy.ml do. Since you’re not the one who’s censored you don’t care about it.
I was banned from .world politics for saying Joe Biden accelerated the genocide in Gaza. They specifically banned me until after the election.
There is no unlimited of freedom-speech anywhere in the world.but scale is different. You can’t say Putin is a dictator in Russia, but you can say Trump is a bastard/Dictator in new york.
USA limit less than Russia and Lemmy.ml limit more like russia than USA
Lmao, in the US, you can be deported to a concentration camp in a country you’ve never been to for protesting against your government doing a genocide. You haven’t been paying much attention lately?
