Just a quick thanks to all the Instance admins out there as we await yet another Reddit wave 💪

Tankie triad represent

Hey, how are you here? Please tell davel to stop screwing with my site ban and fix it.
I don't want to lose my achievement :(
The other 2 are explicitly communist but I'd never assume a lemmy.ml user is a tankie.
People who chose the thing run by the people who make the thing gang rise up
- Should read more about your instance admin and consider changing instances. I know I won't support that asshole

Jesus fucking christ dude, the insane obsession you guys over at lemmy.world have with tankies is unreal. Maybe go outside and touch some grass.

It's always the same two instances complaining about the rest of the Fediverse not bending over to bootlick the US overworlds, and accusing the rest of somehow simping for other regimes just on the basis of opposing that. It is seriously getting tedious and insufferable.

On top of that, including lemmy.ml in there is just disingenuous. Grad and hexbear sure, they are spaces openly and deliberately created to discuss leftist politics. But there is literally nothing making lemmy.ml any less generalist than any instance, maybe other than a certain instance that is happy to ban and defederate anyone who dares question the US hegemony. You cannot bind lemmy.ml to "tankism" on any basis other than the Lemmy devs being socialist themselves despite letting anyone of any political creed use their software, unless you are dumb enough to take decontextualized meanwhileongrad-level bullshit seriously.

I moved over from .world to .ml to flee away from this American exceptionalism brainroot and, guess what? It didn't work. I keep seeing the same constant complaints about this fictional group of Lemmy users that really like Putin and Xi or something and weaponizing those complaints to support and enact hostile actions against people and instances discussing anti-capitalist, anti-establishment policy. The only thing that changed is that now, besides that, I can also see leftists users engage in posts from my own account. So, funnily enough, the echo chamber effect became weaker after I moved to .ml.

It was a rather funny timing that this whole discussion about lemmy.ml being a hardcore tankie instance that should be widely defederated etc came to be about at the time that lemmy.world defederated lemmygrad and consequently ran out of red-flavored scapegoats to claim that they are being oppressed by some nebulous left-wing echo chamber.

You should look at OP’s post history. They’re probably responsible for most of those posts. They’re a serious problem poster. Definitely a pro-war, pro-NATO astroturfer. Hardcore anti-leftist psycho.
- Go ahead, my post history is an open book lmao
- Hey, I'm sure it pays well for them
Except I have clear evidence documented of .ml's tankieness with full context included.
Tankies are not socialists, they deny all the wrong doings of authoritarian regimes, they even deny that NK isn't actually a dictatorship LMAO
.ml removes comments and posts for nothing else other than being against Russia/China/NK. How is that ok your book? I myself would love to see the fall of capitalism, but like I said before, not to just replace it with authoritarianism.
Edit: LMAO .ml unbanned and rebanned me just so that they could brigade my post lololol

Aw, I like talking to you libs. ✌️

Having anti capitalistic views in the fediverse is so important in times like this. Excluding the putin shills ofc.

So just openly anti-leftist and trying to promote Lemmy as another pro-fascism and pro-corporate and pro-war social platform. Real big brain move, doofus.

New Lemmy users, be aware: a lot of the Reddit astroturfers duplicate their efforts here. Lemmy.ml is a leftist and anti-war instance, so it gets a lot of pushback from the astroturfers. Be immediately suspicious of anyone talking shit of Lemmy.ml. It’s mostly bad actors and pro-war people.

Also, Lemmy.world is chock full of the same abusive and sketchy power mods from Reddit.

Touch grass nerd

Remember when I told you to keep it easy on the memes against .ml, hexbear and grad a few days ago? 😄

Fuck Tankies, all my homies Hate Tankies

Poor LW

ngl, I consider .world to be on a similar level of obnoxiousness to .ml
- Agreed, Blahaj.zone users see their problems. They’re an aggressive bunch.
- Honestly feels worse than ml.
Still federated with Threads
https://lemmy.world/instances , ctrl F "https://threads.net/"
- Also allows transphobes to attack trans inclusion in sports.

What'd they do this time?

- That's it? Asking for trade embargos to be lifted? Are you serious?

Tbf the admins of lemmy.ml are the ones who actually develop the service. They deserve our thanks also.

Thank Dessalines for Lemmy and Jerboa
People who name themselves after genocidal warlords can make some pretty good software

Lmao wonder what happened here

Your comment made no sense at first. And then I checked comment counts on other instances 😀
No drama in this corner of the fediverse :)

Lol bro most of us want capitalism to die, but not to just replace it with another authoritarian regime
domestic terrorist vibes detected... proper authority has been notified, resistance is futile.
Same, but I also think killing average working people for no reason makes you a bad person.
Same, I just don't want it to be like the soviet union.
No, a lot of users, especially on Lemmygrad, support Russia and their invasion, for example. Hexbear supports China's dictator. Most .ml I've interacted with are also on Russia's side.
Don't act like the only thing is anti-capitalism. That'd be fine. It's everywhere on the fediverse. No, those instances stand apart for a reason, and you know that.
