What I will miss though: criticizing China from the left
It is already difficult to do so on Chinese internet because of the censorship and periodic crackdowns (though there are still pockets of QQ groups you can join if you know where to look for them), and pre-federated Hexbear was really one of the last places on the internet where you could have a frank discussion on China without too much propagandized brainworms.
Now I find myself refraining from talking about China because of so many racist libs spouting nonsense propaganda.
I'm hoping we get a local only general purpose discussion comm for stuff like this
until we get local comms for it, news mega might be a good place to put this stuff as it's basically only us and a few folks from lemmygrad in there.
c/sino is an appropriate place to discuss China. if you see sinophobic bullshit, report it and we'll make sure it's dealt with. and criticism from the left is fine; it just needs to be sincere/well-intentioned.
also, for general or casual discussions, including China or whatever, c/chat is also fine. again, we run it and we'll make sure it doesn't get out of hand, especially if you can help us out but reporting bad actors.

I feel this even more for Russia right now. Can't say anything bad about them or the dronies will take it as a reason the US is justified in fighting them to the last Ukranian.
For what it's worth, most threads criticizing China on lemmygrad seldom have liberals interfering. I'm not sure why, but my guess is that threads criticizing China go against the narratives they often use to dismiss leftist ideas.
once we simmer down, we'll get back to the true internal struggle sessions and left-criticisms
Hey I’m sorry to hear you feel this way i would be super curious to hear that stuff and would absolutely not tolerate racist libs spouting nonsense
