If the community I want to participate is on an instance I don't like or disagree with their instance-wide rules, what can I do?

never trust any white person wearing the himmler spectacles LOL
edit: i only think this applies to white folks/western leftists. the global south is kind of forced into the "campism" and "nationalism" he views as a regression to a right-wing reactionary form of socialism. e.g. see arabs being pro-iran or west africans being pro-russia/china in recent years. But, yeah, valid take when it comes to the type of people on lemmy as a whole for example.
Also, saying the bolsheviks are similar to mussolini is practically horseshoe theory and kind of a bad take.
Havent watched the video yet but I like Ayman's video on the topic:
No offense: Lemmy is over modded and filled with brigading tankies, anarchists, libs, etc. The mods cant tolerate dissent and its frustrating to watch. It just makes an even smaller more dense echo chamber than reddit. Not to mention this FAF drama over nothing. The main plus side is that people aren't rabidly using LLM's to write posts, which is why I started an account here.
As well, Ghislaine Maxwell isn't a major sub mod here and Lemmy isn't being used for Hasbara by Israel, for now.
Oh and the lack of more hobby-oriented communities is a major short-coming, and probably why Reddit still maintains a large userbase. Self-hosted and the radio instance are great examples, and more communities around those topics can bring folks over here.
What do you have in mind when you state "old school non-violence"?
world has the same issue and isnt tankie. the top 5 largest instances are based on ideology besides zip and the canadian and german ones
