Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and no bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. For a more general community [email protected] is recommended.

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.

I can only get you the thread number because if I try to go to the link all the comments are scrubbed

lemmy.world/t/490214/Why-are-hexbear-mods-such-petty-little-tyrants

It was federated to kbin so I don't really know how to look it up any better than that.

edit: I do also want to bring up one other point though

You don’t see the issue of the Developers blocking only one specific community for no reason? You don’t think that’s counter-productive towards what Lemmy.ml strives to achieve, which is diversity and varied opinions?

Isn't this lemmy.world? I always thought lemmy.ml was more just the first instance, not the one aiming towards diversity. I'd usually recommend someone to lemmy.world if they wanted just a general server.

Your link isn't working. Can you try a screenshot instead? I don't recognise this post.

It doesn't work. How many times do I have to say this? It was a moderated thread and is deleted. The posts are gone at this point.

I don't go purposely following groups to harass them so I talked with this person in this thread and moved on. I didn't screenshot them. Just like i'm posting here because it was on the front page of kbin. The most I could ever give you is the comment saved that I made towards that user.

I recommend you edit your posts that it was not MeanwhileOnGrad that posted that kind of content. Do you want me to respond to your edits or nah?
