On the liberal instances, you can easily get banned for questioning the USAGM script and saying anything positive about Bad Country (For instance, perceiving and mentioning anything ever happening in Ukraine before February 2022)
Their ideological opponent is the ML instances. The most likely reason to get banned on these instances is doing racist dog whistles, even ones that are traditionally tolerated in the west. A common pastime is liberal posters coming to the ML instances and posting the most insane mask-off fascist takes and getting banned, then starting drama posts in the several comms they have for this purpose
The anarchist instances are (unsurprisingly) less in ideological lockstep. The interesting thing that can happen is getting banned for hating on AI too much. Sometimes they will side with the liberals, sometimes the MLs, depending on the issue
Then I suppose there’s also instances like .zip that by all appearances are neutral in the conflict
