Apparently there's an issue with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?

Lemmy ML was created as a safehaven for people from subreddits that were banned like ChapoTrapHouse

you're thinking of hexbear.net, formerly chapo.chat

lemmy.ml is simply the instance run by the lemmy developers, who explicitly have no desire to be the largest or default instance. They are communists, but it is not an explicitly communist instance, and it predates the banning of r/chapotraphouse
