Dared create an account on an instance administered by controversial people, to say the least.

Personally, I couldn't care less about the user names. Ad hominems are worthless, even if certain servers have certain tendencies. At the end of the day, only the substance of the argument, and whether it passes critical thought, matters. Information isn't truth. Information is worthless.

While I think the meme’s a bit far, if I see a .ml talking about how great China is, I’m going to just glaze over whatever they’re saying.

While that is a valid point, you will be on the back foot as far as making a point goes due to the actions of other people on your instance.
