Please check my post, I think everything I said is very valid, but I want this community to see it too, and help steer the discussion, I think reddit is doing this intentionally.

well, i don't want to be rude, i'm not communist or capitalist, just an average guy and i respect every political views, But when your alias/name is 'communist', i think you just obtain the opposite of what you want. I agree with you : federation is missunderstood and if people doesn't want an instance with political bias, they can choose another one.

Inconvenient for this one usecase, yes

I make my username communist everywhere to make people question communism.

Why would they question communism if they see that username? If I see someone is named icecream I'm not going to question icecream.

If someone is named capitalism, should I question capitalism? It doesn't make any sense. :)

It's more about inciting conversation, you can't imagine how many people have messaged me just to fight me over my username.
