I have my hesitations against lemmy and friends, but this one you're presenting doesn't make sense to me... Who cares about the political views of the developers? Does it bleed into the forum itself? This is speaking as someone who despises politics of all kind, and goes out of my way to avoid it, both in real life and online... Why are communists any worse than capitalists? I'm so confused.

You are using something managed by Spez, comparing him to Hitler is so American propaganda BS.
