Considering the article used "tankie" unironically and referred to a far right instance owner as being "pretty chill" I think it's safe to guess the political leanings of the author.

Whatever the authors leanings are, they make a good point. Lemmy has followed Karl Popper's maxim "Tolerant societies must be intolerant of intolerance." It's just that simple.

I mean moderation doesn't neccesarily support that. You can be tolerant but remove stuff that is far in the fringes. Lemmy has quite a mix. World hates left wing, ml is left wing. Ee is pretty open.
