I have seen that the lemmy.ml mods will openly ban discussion about the CCP. I am wondering if the sh.itjust.works team allows criticism of government bodies, while still banning racism.

This is why I didn't make an account on lemmy.ml. I check to make sure instances I join have banned lemmygrad.

How do you check this? And is it banned via the instance "sh.itjust.works" for example, or is it banned via the "subreddit" equivalent, for want of the accurate name?

Scroll to the bottom of the page and click 'instances'

Wow, there are so many instances. One day there'll need to be some method of recording various biases within it.
I'm glad that's not my responsibility!

Hate to see tankies running the software and big parts of the platform.

I wouldn't even say "big parts of the platform". Beehaw, Lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works have large enough userbases now to counterbalance Lemmy.ml

Censoring unfavourable speech is really common on all the big instances, always check that modlog to see what sort of content the mods are censoring. That's why I like burggit.
