I’m simply asking this question because of Lemmygrad.ml existing, and that there isn’t a far-right equivalent of it yet. If Lemmygrad has any standing for its right to exist under free speech, where is the line drawn for other extremist political ideologies? If Holodomor skepticism is allowed, then what stops Holocaust skepticism? (as it is generally accepted the Holodomor was man-made). I’m simply wondering what gives far-left politics a right to promote such extremist views in the Fediverse, when their far-right counterparts would be Defederated in minutes.

    I have met enough far-left authoritarians who are openly racist, anti-lgbtq, and who advocated for violence against people solely based on their family background that I don’t think the extreme right has a monopoly on hate.

    Yeah, they’re banned from lemmygrad. Rule 5:

    1. No capitalist apologia / anti-communism.
    1. No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.
    1. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome, this includes a warning against uncritical sectarianism.
    1. No porn or sexually explicit content (even if marked NSFW).
    1. No right-deviationists (patsocs, nazbols, strasserists, duginists, etc).
