Small correction tesseract is a front-end for Lemmy not a fork, essentually it’s juste a way to browse Lemmy, it also blocked a trans instance and a Yuri community so the developper is a transphobe and a homophobe
i block trans comunities and yuri communities all the time. as well as furry porn that is super common here.
should i be a part of communities I have no interested in? didn’t know I was obligated to look at or comment on posts about trans folk, yuri, and furries.
They are likely thinking of “Loli,” which isn’t even a Japanese term afaik; it’s short for “Lolita” which is a book about a dude who victimizes and rapes a 12 year old.
Leftist and fascist are opposites. Fascism is a right-wing ideology.
You may be looking for the term authoritarian, or totalitarian. Many people refer to them as “tankies” on the left, although as a term that’s become as vague as “woke” for most people using it. Also followers of Trotsky ideology (or “trots”) - tend to behave in divisive ways and believe in hardline authoritarianism (workers only obey the party but have no voice). Not sure how many of them exist on .ml but as a large leftist safe space on the internet I wouldn’t be surprised to find some there.
They support Putin’s Russia, let’s not pretend they’re leftists. They’re authoritarians and like auth regimes regardless of political leaning, as long as they’re not western. So they support fascism too.
I don’t really hang out on/with .ml very much (mostly just my own browsing habits) but my understanding is that they’re not a monolith.
Again, not surprised to find Trots and (actual, not libscolding) tankies there - but just like MAGA don’t speak for all of America, and Al Queda doesn’t speak for all Muslims, they don’t represent “the left” as a whole.

Isn’t Yuri just child porn though? And do the “leftist” instances happen to be fascist ones like .ml?
no. it’s lesbian romance.
I don’t know what you’re conflating that with but no, yuri is a term from Japanese media for lesbian romance, while yaoi is the gay equivalent.

Yuri is lesbian. “Leftist” meaning blahaj zone.
