For more context: I already had the communism and lefty communites blocked. I’d consider myself middle-left of the political spectrum but personally don’t believe in some grand revolution saving us all. Most left communities on here seem to far out there for my personal taste at least. My comment is deleted but if you wanna see the post here’s the link.
Its just that ml mentions itself being a general lemmy instance. Their description on join-lemmy.org is “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers”. I’m a FOSS and privacy enthusiast who likes Lemmy. I just happen to not like communism agenda pushed when I scroll through some memes. I definitely wouldn’t say I’m some uncivil person. Sucks for me that ml is the second largest instance and they have the biggest memes community.
Sure, if you let it bother you. If you care about the memes that much, ignore the stuff you don’t like, if you can’t stand it, find one of many other communities. I don’t think it’s on them, regardless of poor branding, when there’s so many other instances. No one is forcing you to engage in the comments of posts you don’t like.
