    Aight fair enough, that’s pretty concerning.

    Nothing wrong per se with communism itself, it just tends to be extremely unstable and quickly turns to authoritarianism, I don’t think it’s ever worked for any nation in history so far.

    The defending of Uyghur genocides, and the defending of the CCP and Russian government is really concerning though. Good thing this platform is federated.

    libretro has a similar problem, it’s developed by a team of transphobic, homophobic, racist Russian apologists who border on Nazism. I don’t know what attracts these people to FOSS development.

      the implication that communists are transphobic or homophobic or nazis is nonsense. i am trans and live in a place not good to trans people (like most places) the communists are my only allies.

      the modern russian state is not the soviet union, it is who america put in charge after creating a situation that led to millions of deaths.
