      That’s an unfair generalization. I’ve known MLs who absolutely did not, and I wager you most don’t, for that matter. Don’t let a few people being morons poison an entire group. EDIT: Alright, apparently “ML” on Lemmy means that specific instance, which even I’ve had mostly bad experiences with. My bad.

        You’re right that some people signed up for ML simply because it’s the flagship instance and they didn’t know it’s run by tankies.

        But that’s one right there.

          For the record, I’m talking about people holding the ideology that instance was named after, not the instance itself. I don’t peruse Lemmy outside of Beehaw, so I don’t know enough about the instance to comment on it. (That said, I’ll take your word for it, considering users from there have attacked me for absurd reasons before.)

          If you don’t want to believe me, just say that and leave the snark behind. This isn’t Reddit.

            I’m serious. Go find one. I don’t need to “believe” anything when you can prove it.

              Alright, let’s take this seriously for a sec: You want me to go dig up someone who doesn’t know or care about any of what’s going on in this thread, have them sign up for Lemmy and post here, all so they can stand there in front of you? Listen to yourself. You’re talking about people like they’re things I can just pick up and dangle in front of you like car keys.

              I’m not here to arm-wrestle you. You disagree. I get it. We can move on now.

                  Lemmy.ML is full of ML. So go get one.

                  Ah, I see the issue. This might help.

                  I don’t use Lemmy outside of Beehaw. “ML” doesn’t mean that instance to me. I don’t care for that instance.
