Didn't the Mali government just shutdown fmhy.ml because they were using the .ml TLD? Lemmygrad would be in the same position then.

Welcome to MoG!

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!
What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

That's why they're shitting themselves
This is the result of echo chambers. The moment the real world looks even the slightest bit off from their worldview, they invent an existential, tangible threat to that worldview, both retaining the illusion that their view is the default and that it only appears as though the "centrist" or "opposing" view is dominant, while also giving them an excuse to double-down. Fascists have been doing this for the same reasons. They truly believe they hold a majority view and can't accept that they are a fringe group because they only expose themselves to that which reinforces their beliefs.
Alternative title: 3 teenagers wearing Che Guevara t-shirts believe the CIA is caring about what they do.
implying the government would want to target basement-dwelling lemmygrad NEETs
