There's almost always a more deserving community that could use some good content and growth!

splitting discussion on Lemmy further will do nothing but hurt the fediverse.
No one's saying defederate.

Consolidation is still worse long term. There's not that many competing communities.

Having a tankie instance as prominent as .ml is already hurting the Fediverse. It's not a few bad Apple communities, it's literally the admins and mods cultivating an instance wide Tankie culture/factory full of China-bootlicking and genocide denials

I concede that despite not being alive when it was going on, I am just as guilty as everyone in the CIA that rigged elections and staged coups in South America. Everything I've come to know and understand in this lifetime is tainted by imperialism and is therefore invalid.

Fine, can we concede that while they're allowing other topics to flourish on their instance there are also unwritten rules that lead to confused banned users?

Helpful links:
Lemmyverse is a good place for finding communities your instance might not know about
Lemmy Federate is good for seeding communities to other instances.

Can you elaborate about unwritten rules? Most of the bans I've seen has been for pretty clear rules violations, there's some stuff which might fly on reddit (like xenophobia, sexism, racism, transphobia), that will catch a ban here. Having rules against bigotry actually getting enforced is probably a confusing occurrence for some redditors. Even people behaving hostile will generally only catch a temp ban to cool down, permanent bans are more for people who are being bigoted.
I have had plenty of issues with at least one of the admins, despite that I have yet to be censored for saying as much. The red-baiting disguised as legitimate concerns rubs me the wrong way though.

So you admit to paying 0 attention?
YePowerTrippingBastards on my home instance is a good starting place, have fun
Or, you know, play the classic .ml card of pretending you don't know what we're all talking about

More often than not someone when complains about getting banned and I bother to follow up in the modlog it turns out that they got like a 3-7 day ban for acting like an complete asshole. Then they proceed to vague post about it months later despite the ban being long over.

I very much like that, by all reliable reports, Scunthorpe is a real cunt of a town

Most of the time, yeah. But there have been enough other cases over the past couple years that I wouldn't put too many eggs in that basket (or any for that matter).

I don't know about the other Nordic countries, but here in Denmark, "fag" also means profession and is used as a colloquial term for many related groups and concepts.
On a slightly related but hilarious to me note, "bad" being Danish for "bath" and a company refusing to change with the times to accommodate an increasingly international marketplace has resulted in one of the most successful mid tier bathroom design companies in the country still being called "Bad Design"

Also, my American girlfriend insists on pronouncing the Dutch surname of new Liverpool manager like that.
Granted, that IS pretty close to the correct pronunciation of "Slot" in Danish (which means castle or palace and is also the name of a cheap but potable beer), at least

world is based on Denmark iirc
Nope. I'm not sure which but I'm 100% certain that it's based in either Canada or the US
per Denmark law, it's illegal to discuss jury nullification in regards to future crime
No such law here either. Just like in the US, it might lead you to not being selected, but it's not illegal.
Let's do [crime] and then we can get people on our side to do jury nullification" is illegal
True, but it's only the "let's do crime that's (conditionally) illegal. The mention of jury nullification doesn't make it any more or less illegal to probably and knowingly advocate crime.
Anyway, since that kind of thing is EXTREMELY difficult to prove, it's exceedingly rare that anyone gets punished for that particular crlme, making your point a moot one.
In conclusion: I feel completely safe in stating the truth that when the law and the systems it protects is unjust, the just break the law and others should try and help them avoid undue or excessive punishment in Denmark.
