Removed libel against me

Wisconcom, edit whatever you want on Lemmygrad, personally I think it's great if we stay relatively small because I have no desire for it to become Reddit and give us more moderation work (I am an admin on lemmygrad as well as prolewiki). There is literally no reason we would pay 10$ for a domain name and 20$ for a hosting plan to set up a fake instance when we could literally just ban whoever we want with the mod tools but whatever. However I have removed the damaging libel you wrote against me, which said that I set up lemmygrad.com and posted with my "alt" account there. Do that again and I will take legal action against you, this is not a funny joke to me, you might think we're having a good laugh with this edit war but I'm not. --CriticalResist (talk) 13:33, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

I understand and apologize. I am not editing this site again. Let's leave eachother alone. Wisconcom (talk) 15:14, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
That is perfectly fine with me. --CriticalResist (talk) 15:35, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Ideology

Some of the stated ideologies in the infobox are not correct:

  • Dengism: This is probably true as most of the users support modern China.
  • Maoism-Third Worldism: The post you linked to does not represent all of Lemmygrad. A comment disagreeing with the statement "There is no exploited proletariat in the First World" has 23 upvotes and only 4 down.
  • Chinese nationalism: Lemmygrad does not support the Kuomintang or Chinese nationalists, although they probably would support it in the context of the WWII against Japan.
  • Social-imperialism: This depends on whether you consider China imperialist.
  • Anti-science: This refers to the anti-psychiatry community which was banned months ago along with its creator Amicese.
  • Han supremacy: I have never seen any Han supremacist content on Lemmygrad. The Chinese government explicitly opposes this; for example, non-Han ethnicities were not affected by the one-child policy.
  • Revisionism: This is probably refers to socialist market economies like China. They could be considered revisionist if you said the same about the NEP in the Soviet Union.
  • Anti-Stalinism: Most of the users support Stalin
  • Putinism: Most users critically support Russia against NATO/Ukraine but a search also shows plenty of criticisms of Putin. They only support him as long as he is fighting against Nazis.
  • Ukrainophobia: Opposing neo-Nazi groups like the Azov Battalion and Svoboda is not "Ukrainophobia".
  • Anti-Uyghur sentiment: Like the Han supremacy claim, I have never seen anyone on Lemmygrad be racist against Uyghurs.
  • Trotskyism: The Trotskyist community was just created yesterday and People's Court has already started a post on whether to ban it.
  • Esotericism: Searching "esotericism" on Lemmygrad does not show any results. This may refer to Duginism, which is banned on the site according to rule 5.

Complete and utter whitewashing

I can't find a word to describe my thoughts on this article other than white-washing. I did some research into Lemmygrad, and looked into the site itself, and I can say that this article is nothing but a self-promotion and glorification of what is in reality a tiny and ultra-sectarian online troll farm. "principally Marxist-Leninist"? This site is nothing but a spam host for pro-Chinese and Russian disinformation and propaganda. The Dengist fanatics which run Lemmygrad.ml don't care at all about ideology, just defending (what is in reality nonexistant) "AES". How do I know that this site is nothing but a Dengite echo-chamber? For one, I can't actually find any disagreement within the community with regard to ideological matters. Everyone is a pro-Deng social-imperialist shill and propagandist. How come I can't find any Maoists, or Hoxhaists, or any other grouping? Why? Because they are either banned from the site or denied an account in the first place. I don't think this one tiny Putinist/Dengist troll and propaganda forum deserves such a large article. It should be reduced to a few paragrapths. As a non-sectarian leftist site we should strictly stand against this dogmatic and sectarian website. Chs19420 (talk) 15:08, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
