    Ignoring all your weird patronization of the global south…

    If you don’t like America, then get off Lemmy. Because guess what? Lemmy was largely developed by an American. Yes, I know it involved collaboration with developers from other countries, but the primary origin is still American.

    No idea if the main developer, comrade dessalines, is American, but they have a Che Guevara profile pic.

    Here’s a snippet from the US atrocities section of their essays repo:

    “If there is a country that has committed unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States of America. They don’t care for human beings.” - Nelson Mandela

    Two of the other original devs are Nutomic and SleeplessOne1917. Nutomic has a Fidel Castro pfp, and SleeplessOne1917 uses the year of the October revolution in their username. Safe to say the devs of Lemmy do not like America. They also admin lemmygrad.ml

    Might want to check your assumptions (and western chauvinism)

    If you don’t like America, then get off Lemmy. Because guess what? Lemmy was largely developed by an American based communist revolutionaries. Yes, I know it involved collaboration with developers from other countries the great satan, but the primary origin is still American Marxist-Leninist.

    FTFY!

      I couldn’t care less where the other devs are from or their ideological/political associations. All of that is entirely irrelevant.

      What is relevant however is exactly what you didn’t want to talk about. For example, what country you’re from. Which tells me pretty much everything I need to know. Just put a sock in your mouth and shut up.

      Also not taking the bullshit communist bait.
