I am also unhappy about what the main lemmy instance is doing.

What are your thoughts?

    Me personally, I’ve realized how much my perception of socialist countries has been warped by capitalist propaganda and I’m reluctant about believing anything that western media says about these countries.

      I was in the same boat before I joined Lemmy and talked to actual socialists and communists. I was staunchly anticommunist and anti-China without even knowing all the facts.

        There are lot of lies about communism but not every thing that comes anti-communist along is actually anti-communist.

        It is most often directed at the authoritarian and totalitarian communists and gives a really bad image to any other communist, because unfortunate it often lumps it all together.
