Lemmygrad[c] is an ultra-Dengist and third-worldist forum. Founded in 2020, it is based off Lemmy open-source software. Although the forum was initially one of the largest Lemmy instances, it has since become one of the most fringe, with less than 150 regular users and maintaining even less moderators than when it was founded.[1]
The presence of this extremist instance has resulted in criticism from users of other Lemmy instances, particularly in consideration of the fact that the founder of Lemmy software moderates the instance with an alternative account. Because of Lemmygrad's hateful rhetoric against Westerners (and fanatical glorification of Russo-Chinese capitalism and imperialism), it is largely seen as fringe, with even other communist users regularly being banned for expressing views in contradiction to the ultra-revisionist line of the moderator clique.[2]
According to a paper from data researchers at Binghamton and Cyprus Universities, lemmygrad.ml ranked among the top "domains of tankies" on the internet.[3]
