The Lemmy Developers are now personally blocking and banning users and communities critical of Tankies and the Developers.
(sh.itjust.works)
A few years ago, the Lemmy Developers decided to keep their political views on lemmygrad while keeping lemmy.ml more neutral. Now they are banning users who are critical of their actions and bigotry.
Anti-Tankie posts may put you at risk of being banned from commenting and posting on the lemmy.ml instance.
Wait, what do they think happened at Tienanmen Square then? And do they paint the wiki article about it as "fake news"?
Yes, literally. They argue it was a “mostly peaceful” student protest and a few people maybe got killed when they attacked police. They argue the scope and severity has been fabricated by the West, and that there is no evidence of a massacre.
All the usual tinfoil hat stuff you can expect from leftwing authoritarians.
Uhhh do they know that the famous tank man photo is just one photo of a series of very violent ones? They were basically power washing tank crushed corpses into gutters.
Arguments range from “tank man was peacefully moved after the photo” to “the photo was staged by the CIA.” It really is as dumb as it sounds, but insular communities have a way of amplifying and reinforcing crazy.

90% right, but hexbear isn't actually left wing, they just use a few terms as a mask, but all of their views and positions are extremely far right.
They blame the students for the deaths and that it also never happened.
