    Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse. We need to discuss ways to combat this. One group- memes or something is wholly controlled by Chinese state actors. What do you think?

    Yes, imperial propaganda is completely normal and overwhelming. It doesn't matter which empire. They're all working together under global capitalism.

    But it's brainwashed sinophobia to blame only "China".

      Plenty of Russian propaganda too. Every "conservative" community or server is essentially acting in Putin's favor.

      Don't forget USAian propaganda. By far the most prevalent under that regime.

              Maybe db0? At least based off what you're after in your comments.

              Of course there's also the more regional instances, such as feddit.uk, lemmy.ca, etc.

                  What you’re describing is false moral equivalence used as a deflective propaganda strategy.

                  What you described is a state enemy used to deflect attention from the many enemies within this state.

                    Not dominated by Chinese, Russian nor Western state actors. That's all I'm asking for. Where truth isn't censored.

                      You can safely assume that anything on .ml or lemmygrad is. Just don't subscribe to them. I can give you a block list that encompasses most of the ones who don't stay nicely in .ml land. We should have shareable block lists like BlueSky to get new users up and running quickly. I hope that PieFed eventually does some stuff like this.

                      It's safe to assume that the enemy is promoting propaganda while our noble nation is promoting the truth!!! \s

                        Yes Lemmy.ml is the most popular of the tankie instances. They will ban you, remove your posts, etc in most major communities if you say anything negative about CCCP, Russia, Communism, etc.

                        I can recommend lemmus.org as a very fast and efficient instance. Remember, you don't have to have an account on the instance who's communities you want to access. You can access communities on all instances from any instance. So the policies of your home instance don't really affect you much. They only affect the communities hosted there.

                        Why is Lemmy.ml the most popular tankie instance? I've been played by Poo bear, interesting. Thanks I will switch.

                            Lemmy was created by Chinese state actors, so no surprise there.

                              The lemmy developers are tankies and three big lemmy servers are entirely controlled by them, namely hexbear, lemmigrad and Lemmy.ml. You will find plenty of China, North Korea and for some kind of reason Russian propaganda on them.

                                When it was created. And I don't know why, you'd have to ask them.

                                  It's widely-know. Just have to look at the post history of the creators. Particularly Desalines or whatever.
