Called it at the time. Once world defederated from grad, I said that the same people would find a new instance to designate as the "tankie instance" to whine about until it got removed for not being neoliberal enough.
Here we are. Wonder what the next instance is gonna be.
I will single handedly pull midwest.social down with me.
Is this only bc i have repeatedly called you out for discouraging voting and both-sidesing?
I dont see enough midwest.social content anywhere to justifying calling it out as anything in larticular in the first place.
It's because I get accused of being a tankie a lot, that's all
sorry about that i misunderstood the point you were making to a degree. still don’t agree per se but the debate on this is beyond me. deleted my comments, u have my apologies 👍
Considering you went on to start badmouthing me to others, apology not accepted.
u bet lol :)
I really don't know what made you think I'm a lemmy.world user? Lemmy.ml and Lemmygrad are literally owned by the same Tankies that also made Lemmy and a short glimpse into their worldnews community could've really told you how infested it is with Tankies and their agenda.
I just had a look at the eeeevil taaaankie worldnews community.
I can see why centrists hate it so much. There's so much opposition to Netanyahu's genocide.
.ml is already the third "tankie instance" that neoliberals can't stand because they hate everything to their left and only their left. They will find a fourth.
Woah, I'm super interested in leftist theory. I think the only viable future for america is to shift to the left.
I'm not interested in gargling Russia's balls
But Putin, Assad, and Xi are all leftist comrades. Let me go get some links for you…
Oh no. Oh no. Holy shit. I regret to inform you they are all right wing authoritarians. Maybe gargling the balls of the rivals of the US because they were not the US was a bad idea.
no lol ensign_crab decided you were a neoliberal so you have to do that now /s
I didn't respond to them at all.
you were making blanket statements that users not interested in participating in ml instances are all neoliberal/hate leftist thought.
they defended themselves.
i backed up their defense with sarcasm.
Considering they could just block instances they don't want to see instead of karening about it until world defederates from another instance, yeah.
I see way more whining about tankies than actual tankie content.
i don’t have a horse in this race since my admin has blocked ml et al from the start.
so yeah i agree? but don’t brigading and harrassment exist?. that’s what i often see complaints about. i, like you, wouldn’t mind just tankie content. it’s the stuff that comes along with it that gets into the gritty and annoying, by my understanding.
e: fucked up the formatting sorry
Haven't seen any brigading, and the only harassment I've encountered has been from centrists who don't like my opposition to genocide.
kk, truce bc i don’t have enough information to call either you or those who’ve said they’d experienced these things a liar.
Thank you for policing my tone instead of addressing my point. I expected nothing better.
