2 years agoWhat makes it spam? We’re invited to lemmy.ml, it shows up on our homepage the same as it does yours (probably even higher because instances more likely to downvote or ignore political posts don’t link with us atm).
If you meant flooding, it’s not that either. We’re a big instance (1k users weekly) with a general interest in politics and a historical anti-lurking culture, so we’ll be disproportionately active in political threads compared to a general instance like lemmy.ml, just like programming.dev is in tech threads. Are we meant to just not share an opinion because too many other people in the same instance already posted their (different) opinion?
I can’t imagine thinking Chinese citizens wouldn’t know what basic geographical regions in their own country are.
It’s like yelling “Hawaii! Puerto Rico! American Civil War!” at an US citizen and expecting them to wake up.
