Hi all, thank you for reading my post. modlod link
Clocks got banned first after suggesting that the OP try to be a genuine friend and try to find some common cause in real life rather than alienating people over abstract geopolitical factionalism:
I raised the issue that censoring earnest advice as ‘tankie apologia’ and preemtively writing off any common cause/ isolating people is no way to win people over either as friends or comrades.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if ‘genuinely be their friend’ is ‘tankie apologia’ to be censored, I’m not sure you’re going to be very successful convincing anyone of anything in the real world.
yeah that’s the context, I was just laughing because:
- only Lemmy users with an axe to grind call them that
- it sounds really silly, like they’re a nemesis to dr venture.
- I’m supposed to be the melodramatic one yet every day I get one-upped 😔
screeshot:
I’m not here to tell them how to run their comm, my position is that this is way more draconian than anything I’ve run into in any of ‘the tankie triad’. The same groups of people loudly complaining about censorship on ‘tankie’ run instances don’t seem to have a problem enforcing vague/arbitrary vibes based censorship in their spaces.
And yet here you are. I took a brief look at their sidebar rules and it’s pretty clear that you broke one or two of their rules. I don’t think that’s a power trip. That’s moderation. The Tankie Triad are also very heavily moderated.
Is not taking the ‘the tankie triad’ fearmongering seriously breaking the rules? I’m pretty clearly opposed to all inter-capitalist wars
whataboutism, also it’s not nearly to this degree
Hilarious
Not to brag, but I have it on good authority that I am extremely funny. 😏
Yeah, I’m sure Stalin would love you. полезные дураки.
