I'm sorry if this breaks a rule for this sub or isn't in the right place.

I really don't know, most of the time I just lurk. I had an alt on Hexbear because they get defederated all the time, and I really enjoy their content, but it got banned because I called out Nazi propaganda about Ukraine(It's why I was banned. I'm not trying to talk politics I would like to focus on Lemmy), and I'm just very confused. The rules they referenced for the ban seem to barely apply to what I said, and in general, the server seemed like a cool place to be. I definitely felt like I was in a community where I belonged.

I'm just boggled and could really use some hand-holding on this one. In general, the rules of the Lemmyverse confuse me. I want to see everything, but the places I like most are usually defederated from the larger communities.

If this isn't right please please, just point me to where I can ask.

Thanks!

There's nothing left about Russia as it is today. Fully capitalist shithole.

China's weird, it's more like an auth center government IMO. Very much still promotes capitalism and mints tons of new billionaires every year, but also has some sensible social policies and superb public infrastructure. Means of production are still mostly privately owned, but land is government owned so billionaires are free to billionaire, but you can't pass your home down your family forever without paying for it again since the land it sits on is on a 70 year lease which you may or may not get to renew.

IMO for the .ml and hexbear types, it doesn't really seem to be about auth left, it just has to be auth and anti-western. Even auth right is fine as long as it's not a western country.
