Join lemmy.cafe

It blocks all 3 major tankie instances. Including lemmygrad.ml, hexbear.net, and lemmy.ml

Edit: oh you are already on lemmy.cafe

Is lemmy.ml a tankie instance? I honestly missed this.

Dessalines AKA "parentis_shotgun" on Reddit, is the main Lemmy dev, also the admin of lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml.

Holy shit, I didn't know!

It is kind of interesting from a historical perspective that the massacre part of Tiananmen Square didn't happen in the Square. Like most police actions from fascist states, it was squads of pigs chasing down protesters after they broke and ran and beating them to death or disappearing them when they're cut off from support.

And, of course, the crowd had to break and run. They weren't armed, and couldn't actually resist riot cops, much less the army.

Saying that he praised a genocide is very dishonest. If I claimed people in the US were forced to go to universities, where they are forcibly sterilized, beaten and indoctrinated, you wouldn't be praising atrocities if you rejected that claim and praised universities for the good they actually do for society.

Yes and no

Some of the mods/admins are tankies, but it’s a popular instance so many users aren’t tankies. Some are tho.

Yes, it used to be obvious from the mod log but they are doing something sketchy with it these days.
