The participation seems way down recently. What did I miss?
Right, you’re assuming. So why come after me for doing the exact same thing you’re doing. Seems like the definition of hypocrisy.
Also I’ve never been censored on world, but I’ve been censored on very normal and calm comments on ml dozens of times to the point where I gave up. Everyone has their own experiences but mine seem to line up with the majority which lends a bit more credibility.
Edit to your edit: you may have no mod powers but you are the echo chamber that is being reinforced. I’ve had interactions with you where you’re being very aggressive or sarcastic and I’m sticking to facts. Guess who got banned or comments deleted, me. I mean maybe it’s because you’re an ml user, but those interactions look very bad from the outside and people are seeing that kind of stuff. Literally look at posts today about how people are moving away from ml.
I’m assuming because Lemmy.ml isn’t noticably less active, OP can chime in if they want. It seems to be more instance-based inactivity, with Lemmy.ml the same as it has been.
Also you, you specially are actually big problem in the ml community. I’ve seen you interact with enough people who all seem to suspiciously be censored… Hrmmm… I’ve also heard plenty of people reference you. You personally have done a lot of damage to the ml community.
Can you elaborate? Who is referencing me? I don’t have any mod powers or admin powers, in fact I rejected offers for mod powers from different instances.
You edited the comment before so I put the response in that, seemed silly to copy paste it again lol. But tldr, I may have been extreme is saying it’s you, by I’ve seen people interact with you, myself included, why get censored and banned. I’ve looked over everything I’ve said and couldn’t find anything ban worthy outside me being a world user and going against what the community thinks.
I’m a Marxist-Leninist, and the mods and admins of Lemmy.ml lean Marxist, it makes sense that liberalism gets banned more frequently on Lemmy.ml. I have no control over what others say, only what I do, I don’t see how that makes me a problem.

I am indeed a Marxist-Leninist, I stick to Marxism. If you were on Lemmy.world, you could be the echo chamber that is being reinforced. People are also moving away from Lemmy.world for being anti-Socialist.
Here are a few examples of the mods denouncing Socialism and Marxism, and they perma-banned me from political memes for going against the liberal narrative for “misinformation and posturing” despite leaving up the Zionist lie that the Palestinian genocide is a 1000 year conflict. This is also when one of the moderators claimed they weren’t censoring anyone and were incredibly fair on a comment chain calling out their censorship, and refused to elaborate. They would not even tell me how I could edit my comments to comply with their rules.
They defederated from Hexbear “as a last resort-” before ever federating with Hexbear.
In the Lemmygrad defederation thread, there’s unsupported claims of hate speech and calls to violence, which we have to fill in the blanks - the mods are anti-Marxist and anti-revolution, so any Marxist instance is going to fail that test.
The Hexbear defederation thread is somehow worse when they list why instead of leaving it to the imagination. Read some of the top comments, it’s clear that it was anti-Socialist in motive. Real spooky scary zingers listed as evidence in the post like “The West’s role in the world, through organizations such as NATO, the IMF, and the World Bank - among many others - are deeply harmful to the billions of people living both inside and outside of their imperial core.” This statement is 100% obvious to anyone not stanning the US Empire.
Another example listed is “These organizations constitute the modern imperial order, with the United States at its heart - we are not fooled by the term “rules-based international order.” It is in the Left’s interest for these organizations to be demolished. When and how this will occur, and what precisely comes after, is the cause of great debate and discussion on this site, but it is necessary for a better world.” Yet again, they are defederated for being Marxists, and therefore being revolutionary. This is just because they are authentically Marxist, not because posters were mean.
The mods of Lemmy.world are Liberals. Not just any liberals, but “true believers.” Marxism is dangerous to them and so they shut it out, they spelled it out plainly. They censor just as much, if not more often, than Lemmy.ml.
