The management of lemmy.ml is tankie friendly, but many or even most of the users are not actually tankies.

You haven’t been on .ml much or don’t pay attention to the subtleties if you think the admins and main mods aren’t full blown Tankies. And they’re quick to silence dissenting voices that dare criticize China or Russia, no matter how deserving or right

.ml is more subtle than hex that’s true, but they’re absolutely Tankies just the same and consider hex and grad friends.
