I'm not from lemm.ee, so I can understand why I would not allowed to have a direct say in how the instance should be run. That's fine. Unless you meant that even lemm.ee users aren't allowed to have a say in how their instance is run. That sounds pretty authoritarian.
What pro-Russian agenda am I pushing? I presented an example of why banning only Kremlin propaganda without even defining what that means is concerning. It's how you end up with political discussion being astrotrufed to the point of uselessness like on r/politics. Commenting on something explicitly brought up in the main post is not derailing the topic.
Banning state propaganda is great, but why limit that ban to Kremlin propaganda? US propaganda is just as, if not more, prevelent and toxic. The narrative surrounding the destruction of the Nord Stream is a good example:
American corporate media and government officials were calling for its destruction and outright threatening to blow it up for months prior to the actual attack. Immediately after its destruction, the corporate news outlets and government officials that had been calling for that very action acted as though they had never done so and presented a unified front that blamed Russia for the attack. Doing some critical thinking and realizing that Russia had neither the opportunity nor the motive to blow up their own pipeline is not Kremlin propaganda. Continuing that critical thinking and realizing that the US had both motive and opportunity, and was a likely culprit because they had repeatedly threatened to blow up the pipeline is not Kremlin propaganda. Shutting down all discussion critical of the US by dismissing it as Russian bots is US propaganda.
It's important to remember that Trump isn't being indicted for mass murder due to covid polices. He's not being indicted for fraudulently funneling trillions of dollars to the capitalist class. He's not being indicted for supporting landlords as they gouge everyone else, steal homes from the people paying for them, and drive millions more people into poverty and homelessness. He's not being indicted for crushing unions, or for the horrific working conditions and infrastructure disasters that creates.
Those are the common crimes of the capitalist class. A capitalist legal system exists to protect the capitalist class and their capital, so such crimes will never be prosecuted under such a system.
He'd be beaten to death by the police for disturbing the peace while not being white.
