Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here?
I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 3 days agoAs you can see from the above example, the users pushing the whole “America is the only bad country! China is amazing and never does anything wrong!” rhetoric are overwhelmingly from a single instance; lemmy.ml.
No matter the topic of conversation, an .ml user just can’t help themselves from virtue signaling in the comments about how much they hate imperialism and how they know that anything bad about China/Russia/NK is literally all Western propaganda.

Yeah it’s a good microcosm for what initiated my post. No matter where I am here I face a lot of this. Me criticizing China doesn’t mean I love the US. Me criticizing the US doesn’t mean I love China. Every nation has skeletons in their closet and we don’t need to act like that isn’t the case.

This is exactly the difference between kids and adults.
You’re reading a lot of posts from kids that wear their hearts on their sleeves and advocate for what they think is the “good” side.
There is a way to block the .ml instance, I did so within the first week I joined.
It winnows out the kids.

Yeah that seems to be what I will do. Now as for what you’re saying, i think someone could be quite old and still a kid.
