Personally I would like to be able to talk to people with different views, in a civil manner. But Lemmy.ml doesn't seem to want that. If you post something that they don't like (even if it's a very moderate view and is expressed in a completely civil way) then they ban you. They seem to really hate moderate people.

Most of the users saying this went around screaming the word Tankie all over the place on .ml.

I got instance banned for saying federal democratic republics are a form of democracy.

Edit: I also don't care. I never expected M-Ls to do anything besides M-L things and they don't owe me anything.

Modlogs are public, everyone can see why you were banned.

Also no ml would disagree with that, here's Lenin explaining the difference between a capitalist democracy and a workers democracy.

Which is why you can see them do it exactly as stated. "American propaganda" lol.

Have fun hanging around people who ban people for disagreeing with the party line of a dead ideology that had its corpse cannibalized by fascists. That will surely lead to the second revolution.

every accusation is a confession.

I've never banned anybody for saying their view, and I don't think I'd support someone being banned for saying their view, as long as they're being respectful, and as long as they're not advocating anything criminal.
