Does lemmy.world allow criticism of the CCP? (lemmy.world)

Apparently there's an issue with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?

Lots of racism in this thread

how was it racist?

So, the latest thing that I've seen is that supporters of the CCP will label anything critical of the CCP as "racism against asians". Not sure if that's the case here, but there have been a lot of posts about the CCP, so... maybe?

Its the first move in the foreign troll farm playbook. Use the enemies own morality against them. You see this in threads discussing the Uigher genocide. To the 50 cent poster it is both morally wrong for you to criticize it because you are just a sinophobe, but on the other hand the CCP actions are justified because they are protecting Chinese cultural identity. Its just typical fascist hypocrisy logic.
