Lemmy.world isn't really a tankie echo chamber though, definitely not like lemmy.ml or lemmygrad

Could have fooled me. Maybe it’s not as extreme as the others but the creators are still rumored to be tankies. It’s entirely possible that I’m wrong though.

I did see a comment in the politics community get tons of downvotes for saying something unpopular. A mod replied saying people were also reporting it but they’re allowing it to stay because it didn’t break any rules. I checked back later out of curiosity and sure enough it was removed.

Just to be fair to lemmy.world however it’s possible some mods are acting in good faith like the one that replied while others don’t have the same standards.
