Leftypol evac (lemmygrad.ml)

Leftypol, afaik, has always been a glowop, and the government seem intent on crushing its support of Z and Gaza. Currently, the level of NAFO attack is increasingly high, and with an appropriate level of human, automated, and semi-automated attack, we could go under, especially since mods want it to collapse. How would you feel about an evac? I understand you do need to filter as Leftypol is very loosely moderated. And do you have plans if government troll farms go after you as well?

Looking at the leftypol.org moderation thread quickly, it... leaves an impression. There's some real wannabe-cop shit going on.

It looks like part of the reason for the understaffing is that after four years, they finally banned an openly abusive moderator. Then other mods just kept using that name/account to continue moderating under a false name. So they currently have mods trying to justify gaslighting the userbase with a zombie account. Then there's a long essay one of them made when they left a year ago, which I just don't have time to look at today.

On the wiki and booru, it looks like the other English-language socialist imageboards are:

leftychan : a split from mods who disagreed, run democratically
GETchan : completely independent site (not a left-/pol/ offshoot) with much politically-stricter moderation hosting a casual chat lounge board and a flag-collecting international board. Now I see the name, I remember their YouTube channel filled with great music collections including original archivism.
Nuclear Change : a board with a knack for running online projects rather than generic chatting, also run democratically
