It depends what branch of lemmy.

.ml is a huge server and home to the developers of lemmy, its explictedly Marxist-Leninist and china sympathic.

There are some servers that defederate .ml but since its suppose to be a general use instance many people are on it without even knowing about the ideology, its a delicate matter.

My advice is to always look the instance of users as context and you will eventualy spot patterns in it.
