The refreshing part of having met people IRL in Australia, I think, is the majority of socialist identifying people in Australia don't have a hard-on for authoritarian regimes just because they claim to be socialist or are an enemy of the US (because apparently the US are the only imperialists... lol).
Though I have met a handful of such people IRL also, funnily enough, from the Australian Communist Party haha
I also vote on wanting this new community, mostly because lemmy.ml doesn't really align with the majority view of socialists (at least, that's my sense)
Just in case it was confusing, my comment was referring to the "American Communist Party" (known for "MAGA Communism").
