My first account was on .ml, and it took me about half an hour to get completely jumped by a bunch of Stalinists. Ended up deleting my account, and was hesitant to create a new one.
Thankfully, it seems to be two instances, and I’ve blocked them both. My experience after that has been great.
Tankies are just fashists who are exploiting the glitch that makes the ideology behind the largest mass murders in history more socially acceptable in the west.
Tankies and fascists have more in common with each other, and feudalists, than they do with workers/socialists. I’m convinced the horseshoe theory is just narcissism presenting across the political spectrum.
Only a fucking narcissist could believe authoritarianism, control, and subjugation are desirable. That’s why its delusions of grandeur and megalomania all the way down.
Just got majorly downvoted on works for asking why free speech is a bad thing and the only response was a snarky comment saying I’m from 300 years ago.
I’m about to delete my account after being on here for a year and a half because most popular Lemmy instances are just turning into the worst parts of twitter exiles.
Don’t be childish, you must know that going against the circlejerk/hivemind is a guaranteed downvote brigade on any social media site. But depending on the thread/community/server/phase of the moon, the hivemind can believe completely contradictory things.
You just have to read the room, and if you’re going against the general mood in the thread, you have to put in extra effort to get your point across. And sometimes you just wear the downvotes like a badge of honor, because it means you’re not a sheep.
Authoritarians gonna auth. Why particular holy book they wave around, the Bible, das Kapital, mein Kampf or whatever they have in North Korea is merely incidental.
I finally just blocked the entire instance. A lot of those folks aren’t exactly… right.
The hardcore tankies as just as bad as holocaust deniers.
Pretty sure most of them are holocaust deniers, just not the Holocaust you’re thinking of.
Same. I really wanted to be around other leftists but holy fuck the vast majority of them need serious help.

Three instances. ML, Lemmygrad, and Hexbear
Wait, is ml supposed to be left leaning? 😂
They leaned so far to the left they ended up doing a headstand

You mean sh.itjust.works when you say works?
It was on news@lemmy.world, you can see the comment on their profile

I’d say the equivalent in Nork is probably On the Juche Idea
