I just joined Lemmy and I have already seen a comment from a tankie telling all Americans to "rot and die" in this same community. So no, it's not all wholesome.

Bonus points if the tankie was American themselves.

Is lemmygrad what I think it is?

Probably. It's one of the instances dedicated to Marxist-Leninists. I block some communities there due to not wanting to deal with apologia for what I see as crimes against humanity but, there are also meme communities, etc. Also, despite significant differences, the user interactions that I've had have been much less vitriolic than other parts of the Internet.
