I mean that explanation doesn’t explain why the socialist instances are all pre-banned and pre-censored on the mainstream instances. Which makes the poster perfect irony.
They banned people from all communities on their instance, not just political ones.
I assume you’re talking about Lemmy world? They didn’t ban all socialists from all instances as that’s impossible. They defederated from hexbear and lemmygrad because they saw how toxic their userbase was. They’re still federated with lemmy.ml because their users behave normally.
