It was never closed to non-tankies, but it wasn't very welcoming. I had an account on .ml early on and most of the time I got hammered with downvotes, despite having opinions that I'd describe as being on the left edge of liberalism.
Downvotes are federated.
Yeah but this was 3 years ago, Lemmy was basically only the .ml instance at that time.
To be clear, the left edge of liberalism is bernie sanders. Is that what youre saying?
Some members of LDPR(e.g. Furgal) seem to be more left than Bernie. And LDPR is former LDPSU - first right-wing party of USSR. Or some members of Union of Right Forces.
Not corporate neofeudalist is better than corporate neofeudalist, which is improvement for US. But I can't say he is on edge even of liberalism.
By US standards maybe, but I'm to the left of that.
Meh, I'd say Bernie is either a social democrat or a reformist socialist who hides his power level.
He's a self described democratic socialist
Correct, but I'm pretty sure he said he doesn't want to completely socialize the economy.
