A collective of pedestrians living in the Brussels is fighting illegal parking by putting humorous stickers on the rear windows of cars parked on the pavement – hindering people wanting to walk or cycle safely.

        Admins of .ml are Tankies (authoritarian “communists”) and often push that ideology on their instance via admin/mod action.

        One of the pieces of propaganda they push is that Russia/Putin did nothing wrong and was fully justified to invade Ukraine (Reasoning varies, sometimes it’s because Ukraine was/is being run by Nazis sometimes it’s because the US overthrew the government and put in place a “secret dictatorship”)

        My comment was a bit of a joke, meaning if you posted this over on the .ml version of this comm, there’s a decent chance Itd get removed and you possibly banned because of its anti-Putin message

      .ml is not that crazy in my experience. It hasnt even really gotten downvoted there so far. Hexbear was a cesspit, but .ml isnt so bad i think.

        Yea, that’s intentional. They want to keep things more subtle just like that so that it keeps the calls for defederation down.

        They usually just censor people by removing any content that’s critical of Russia/CCP/NK and banning them and allowing propaganda “news” and other content to spread and fester. Where Hex/Grad just let things get wild, which in turn led to where we are now in that they’re widely defederated from lol
