They banned me recently since I was writing a comment talking about how many "memes" on [email protected] are oftentimes not even memes and just unfunny pushing communist agenda and how I was thinking about blocking the instance. It got a bit too many upvotes from them and I ended up getting banned. So in response I made this meme and posted it to [email protected]
- No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.
I'm not seeing it, unless website admins are a marginalised class.
Bigotry is when you hurt an admin's feelings, of course.
If any Lemmy.ml mods or admins are reading this:
Fuck you. Ban me, bitch.
They won't see it because they censor no-no words.
These same people insist that like-minded adults talking things out will produce a stateless utopia. It's funny, from a distance.
The lemmy.ml admins who do this kind of thing are proud tankies. Pro-Russia, Pro-China, Pro-North-Korea, authoritarian "communists" are a marginalized class, dontcha know?
I can somehow understand pro-China and less so, but still conceptionally grasp pro-Russia. But how on Earth can you really think NK is not a brainwash concentration camp?
Tankies operate on a very simple belief system.
US bad > Russia don't like US > Russia good
same for north korea, cuba, anything
We could call that the Chomsky fallacy.
I remember seeing to mod in the post commenting on someone's mention of North Korea. First he posted an image detailing the deaths caused by the US and South Korea during the Korean war, and that was it, no mention about NK specifically. Later he said that there was no proof that NK is brutally repressing its citizens. Then when someone said how everyone who fled NK said so, he said how they only do it for the shock value to get stories out and make money out of that, or something like that.
Basically people like that find anything anti-US as good, and if you say anything bad about those countries, they'll ask for proof and then call whatever you provide fake.
Later he said that there was no proof that NK is brutally repressing its citizens.
lmao
I also don't see anything when I close my eyes and plug my ears.
I'm actually glad MLs have ramped up the pro north korea talk recently. I was starting to doubt being against these users that claim to be progressive, but then I saw them defend a clear-cut present-day dictatorship.
If you want rationality, don't look for it from tankies.
I dunno if scaring people off of their instance's communities is a deliberate attempt at building an echo chamber or just genuine dumbassery.
Honestly thank god the Lemmy devs made a platform that makes it so easy to avoid them.
Defedding .ml has been one of the most benefitial decisions we have ever made. There's so much less toxicity!
Lemmy.cafe is defederated from lemmy.ml? Are you guys defederated from hexbear and lemmygrad too? If so I may have found my new instance :o
Poggers thanks man!
Yeah, ML commenters consistently have some of the worst takes in the thread pretty much anywhere.
I enjoy reading the posts about how the tianamen massacre never actually happened and how america is to blame for everything and if every country was like China the world would be a utopia
Update: He did it again fellas!
lmao, that's hilarious. Featured this

Embarrassing. I can't believe I donated to this guy.
How do you see who actually performed the mod action? It always just says mod when I look at the log.
Yeah, I've stopped any participation in any .ml community. I'll use any other instance version even if it's smaller. I haven't personally blocked the server yet, but it's getting closer.

What is a Tankie?

(caution of bias)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism — Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate ban.
If you're violating instance rules, you'll typically be warned. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.
