  • And what definition of tankie is used here? I've been called a tankie several times on this thread and on lemmy while I discovered this word here on lemmy.

    Are you concerned you might be a fascist or are you trying to disregard and disqualify me based on whtt I consider a fascist?

    My point is that here there is a witch hunt against supposed tankies whyle fascists are welcome. Considering the political climate in western countries, do you think fascism or tankism will be more prevalent? Why is the fight against tankies so much more prevalent on lemmy.world then?

  • When people support a genocide I tend to consider them fascists. When they consider leftists to be extremist of fascist, they are usually fascist themselves. When they promote authoritarianism, intolerance, xenophobia,... When people talk about wokes or wokism, they're usually fascists. When they support US imperialism.

    Most fascists blind themselves though, and the propaganda picture anyone against the fascists as fascists.

    The biggest lie to picture the left as fascist simply because they don't support liberalism. Leftists have always been the first victims of fascism. That should give you a hint.

  • It's funny how you picture this authoritarianism, and then this very thread is exactly about that : either you defederate from hexbear or you defederate from lemmy.world is the request here.

    I've seen far far more fascists on lemmy than I've seen tankies BTW.

    So you know maybe it's lemmy.world that turned fascist and not lemmy.ml. Just food for thought here.

  • This thread is about de federating from lemmy.lm. Because some fascists here are on a witch hunt against some people from hexbear.

    It is literally telling everyone that either they defederate from hexbear or they defederate from lemmy.world.

    Typical trump diplomacy btw.

  • Everything can be. But for the largest majority of people, eating is normal, eventhough it can seem to have some aspects of an addiction.

    And the most important part here is that even if you somehow get addicted to food, you cannot simply stop eating. Because you need to eat for your survival. It's a biological need.

    That's the point of the example : showing that something you can't stop doing is not necessarily a bad thing. The details are very important when it comes to addiction.

    And video games are unfortunately victim of propaganda when it comes to their dangers.

  • An addiction is defined by two things : first, it has negative effects on your life. Second, trying to stop it makes you miserable.

    Food for example is not an addiction, it's a biological need. The need for socialisation is another one.

    Video games can be an addiction. But I'd argue that they're usually not, they usually a coping mechanism. When they are, the problem is elsewhere, and the video games are helping you to survive through the problem.
