I'm simply asking this question because of Lemmygrad.ml existing, and that there isn't a far-right equivalent of it yet. If Lemmygrad has any standing for its right to exist under free speech, where is the line drawn for other extremist political ideologies? If Holodomor skepticism is allowed, then what stops Holocaust skepticism? (as it is generally accepted the Holodomor was man-made). I'm simply wondering what gives far-left politics a right to promote such extremist views in the Fediverse, when their far-right counterparts would be Defederated in minutes.

Unless it's racism against Asians, that's rampant on the left.

I'd love to see any evidence of this

Affirmative action was specifically designed to lift up groups that are born into poverty far more than others in the United States. Asian-Americans don't fall under that category.

You're not arguing in good faith at all. You don't have any evidence, you just have wild accusations.
