Lemmy is a leftist platform, the devs literally calls themselves "Marxist-Leninists", so everyone here is guilty by association, they don't care about tankies vs anarchist vs Social Democrat vs Neoliberal, to the far right, you're all Maoists/Stalinists, which means you're kinda fucked lol.
Maybe if you were using reddit, and didn't post anything political, you could pass as an apolitical normie.
FTFY.
