Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse

Piefed was created by the CIA, NSA, and Kissinger's ghost.

You can tell in the name.

Good hint, but there needs to be an online registry of them where you can subscribe to them and get updates automatically when they change. This is how Bluesky works and it works very well.

There are a lot of people supportive of the PRC, both because the US Empire is declining and the PRC is positioned as an alternative to the US Empire's naked terrorism, and because Lemmy has a lot of communists. Lemmy has a lot of communists because the lead developers are communists, FOSS attracts communists, and because as Reddit bans communist communities they are often suggested to come here.

There's absolutely no credible evidence of CPC interference in Lemmy, this is a normal thing to happen to a FOSS alternative to Reddit.

Where truth isn’t censored

Self-hosting seems your only option then. You might be cut off from other instances if they decide to defederate, but at least on your instance you'll be able to enjoy free speech (and block unwanted speech).

You know, without proof that sounds very much like a whataboutism…

You could have just said "rabidly anti-tankie people" LMAO

If you know anything about Goat and PugJesus...

Well you can listen to all the Hitlerites from axiss.world if you like. Or actually interact with politically literate people on .ml

Heavily propagandized people by the governments that brought Operation Paperclip and Victims of Communism memorials that never happened because oops, all Nazis.

And Russia

[mrdown@lemmy.world]

There is less propaganda talking point that you think that can be debunked in 5 minutes. The same propaganda talking repeated points so they become so easy to recognize. You don't need to know the whole history of Russia and Ukraine to know that Russian invasion is illegal, you don't need to know too much of the history of China or Taiwan to know that China has no right to take Taiwan, you don't need too much details to know that Israel is the settler colonial power and that settler colonialism is never justified . Visiting regularly the modlog it is pretty clear to me that mods of big communities do not intent to fight propaganda at all . One can't expect all propagandist comments and posts to be removed but can expect some to be removed when they are reported

Well I guess no answer in this case is a very loud answer.

[cowbee@lemmy.ml]

Do you have any evidence backing this claim up, or is this the way you've decided to rationalize a greater portion of people being pro-PRC?

[alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Diggaaaa, you can just look the users, their posts, their communities and how they moderate them (modlogs) up.

No need to spoonfeed you like a child

[edie@lemmy.ml]

2 great tits! They're really beautiful.

[franconian_nomad@feddit.org]

Diggaah, if you claim something the proof of burden is on your side!

Funny. I don’t know all of this users, but I know pugjesus and haven’t seen one pro-genocide post from him ever, but a shit ton educational history memes….
