      The other 2 are explicitly communist but I’d never assume a lemmy.ml user is a tankie.

      People who chose the thing run by the people who make the thing gang rise up

          “that asshole” has been working below minimum wage, one unexpected financial burden away from homelessness, for the last four years to bring you Lemmy for free

          What I’m saying is even if you disagree with his views, on the things that actually impact you, he’s been a great positive in your life

          This post is complaining about disinformation being censored, which is good. Every website should censor disinformation regardless of source.

              The imgur album linked in the comment is almost 100% disinformation once it starts describing the alleged atrocities.

    So just openly anti-leftist and trying to promote Lemmy as another pro-fascism and pro-corporate and pro-war social platform. Real big brain move, doofus.

    New Lemmy users, be aware: a lot of the Reddit astroturfers duplicate their efforts here. Lemmy.ml is a leftist and anti-war instance, so it gets a lot of pushback from the astroturfers. Be immediately suspicious of anyone talking shit of Lemmy.ml. It’s mostly bad actors and pro-war people.

    Also, Lemmy.world is chock full of the same abusive and sketchy power mods from Reddit.

    Having anti capitalistic views in the fediverse is so important in times like this. Excluding the putin shills ofc.

    Jesus fucking christ dude, the insane obsession you guys over at lemmy.world have with tankies is unreal. Maybe go outside and touch some grass.

    It’s always the same two instances complaining about the rest of the Fediverse not bending over to bootlick the US overworlds, and accusing the rest of somehow simping for other regimes just on the basis of opposing that. It is seriously getting tedious and insufferable.

    On top of that, including lemmy.ml in there is just disingenuous. Grad and hexbear sure, they are spaces openly and deliberately created to discuss leftist politics. But there is literally nothing making lemmy.ml any less generalist than any instance, maybe other than a certain instance that is happy to ban and defederate anyone who dares question the US hegemony. You cannot bind lemmy.ml to “tankism” on any basis other than the Lemmy devs being socialist themselves despite letting anyone of any political creed use their software, unless you are dumb enough to take decontextualized meanwhileongrad-level bullshit seriously.

    I moved over from .world to .ml to flee away from this American exceptionalism brainroot and, guess what? It didn’t work. I keep seeing the same constant complaints about this fictional group of Lemmy users that really like Putin and Xi or something and weaponizing those complaints to support and enact hostile actions against people and instances discussing anti-capitalist, anti-establishment policy. The only thing that changed is that now, besides that, I can also see leftists users engage in posts from my own account. So, funnily enough, the echo chamber effect became weaker after I moved to .ml.

    It was a rather funny timing that this whole discussion about lemmy.ml being a hardcore tankie instance that should be widely defederated etc came to be about at the time that lemmy.world defederated lemmygrad and consequently ran out of red-flavored scapegoats to claim that they are being oppressed by some nebulous left-wing echo chamber.

      Except I have clear evidence documented of .ml’s tankieness with full context included.

      Tankies are not socialists, they deny all the wrong doings of authoritarian regimes, they even deny that NK isn’t actually a dictatorship LMAO

      .ml removes comments and posts for nothing else other than being against Russia/China/NK. How is that ok your book? I myself would love to see the fall of capitalism, but like I said before, not to just replace it with authoritarianism.

      Edit: LMAO .ml unbanned and rebanned me just so that they could brigade my post lololol

      You should look at OP’s post history. They’re probably responsible for most of those posts. They’re a serious problem poster. Definitely a pro-war, pro-NATO astroturfer. Hardcore anti-leftist psycho.

          Lol no, tl;dr VodkaSolutions had commented “If, he [Trump] most likely goes down as the dumbest president of all the countries ever, even over the north Korean dictators” and that was removed by the .ml Tankie mods because he dared imply that NK was run by a dictator.

          But straight NK propaganda is allowed to proliferate.

          Clear evidence of enforcing pro-Russia/China/NK authoritarian mindset via mod/admin action aka Tankie

          And that’s just the latest, which happened just yesterday, there’s much more at [email protected]

            Meh, what’s the big deal? Isn’t it good there’s an anti-US presence here? I like the intellectual diversity they bring, even if they’re often insufferable jerks about it.

              It’s not so much the anti-US part, because honestly fuck the US gov and the shit they do lol, but more of the “China/Russia/NK can do NO WRONG/aren’t actually authoritarian governments simply because they oppose the US” parts

              There was nothing wrong with the comment that got removed, and they do that all the time.

      Your comment made no sense at first. And then I checked comment counts on other instances 😀

      No drama in this corner of the fediverse :)

      Thank Dessalines for Lemmy and Jerboa

      People who name themselves after genocidal warlords can make some pretty good software
