On the various posts in this current flood of "Communists should leave the communist instance for my own comfort" nonsense, even the anti-.ml crowd can't provide good examples of how anyone who looks at them funny gets banned. Nobody has modlog receipts and almost every example THEY provide of communists oppressing them or whatever is THEM saying dumb nothings like "I can't hear you over Tienanmen Square" or cussing up a storm while the .ml person is like "Here's a book about XYZ"
I'm sure people have been perhaps hastily moderated on .ml, but probably not any more than any other instance, and if so they aren't the ones rallying to de-ML .ml.
