Why is there such a large amount of communist and transgender related posts on the Fediverse compared to other platforms?

Not sure about transgender posts, but the communist posts are probably because other platforms are owned by huge corporations, and huge corporations generally don't like communism. Lemmy can never be bought by a huge corporation (at least not entirely).

I just block commie groups as they turn up and thus never see their content. Ezpz.

Lol why is this downvoted? Are commies really that fragile?
Spoiler: yes, they are 🤣

Everything can be bought.

If you don't understand why that is not true of things like lemmy, you do not understand lemmy
lemmy cannot be bought in the same way that Linux cannot be bought. You may buy an instance (or a distro) but that doesn't (and can't) get you the whole lot. Anyone could start a new instance, thwarting your bid to collect all the users

I guess you don't know the history of XMPP...

Wikipedia tells me there are many non commercial implementations of XMPP, alongside commercial products that also use the standard. I don't see that as a good example of corporate takeover of the whole thing
