That really surprises me considering their the lemmy devs' leftist political beliefs
That's the thing with being pro free speech - it means not censoring speech you hate.
Things quickly get complicated when the speech is (potentially) harmful.
I didn’t take them to be free speech absolutists, though.
They're as leftist as the "communist" China. Or as "socialist" as the Nazis were. Just because someone calls themselves "communist" or "socialist", doesn't mean it's true. And if you support China, Nazis, Soviet Union or its successor Russia, you're not a communist or socialist.
