I've joined this instance because of the rules and the communist lean

No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.

Be respectful, especially when disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome here.

However it's clear that the worldnews modding rotten. Fascist/xenophobic/antisemite users have their posts alive while those who call them out get hidden or even banned.

As it is the main news community of the instance, I understand how it can be seen as an instance issue instead of user preference to use some smaller community.

Yea lol, every other day it's that "collapse imminent" and every other time it's "turning around and winning everything"

The Red Scare is a more like side goal because communism threatens oligarchies. The Soviet Union also had its hand in persecuting communists.

Yeah it's true that even though the term West/western is so varying, it is difficult to include Russia in.

But the point of imperialism rising is valid, US might be losing grasp but Russia and China are grabbing what they can to oppress as well.

And during the prohibition, black market flourished. The business will always be there. The question is do you support organized crime or do you support taxing to cover harm reduction and safety for people (buying from non-criminal sources, tested product etc)

Currently your stance is to provide money for organized crime

How ok would it actually be for other countries to agree to remove one somehow... there'd be few on the same list if Israel would become a precedent

Fascists collaborating with fascists claiming to not is not very believable

As neonazis commonly say that antifa are the true fascists, how many truly believe and why

Far right and the rest of the capitalists are pro each other until it no longer benefits them
