They're rare, but they're unfortunately here - Lemmy.World

Lemmy

Tankies are right wing. Watch them make excuses for Russia and say NATO should pull out of Ukraine. Watch them say a Trump presidency is better than the alternative.

Tankies are factually left-wing. Their actions, however, sometimes play into the deck of right-wingers when they try to fuck around with the system.
no they have right wing ideals. they just use left wing terminology to push a right wing worldview.
As in economic equality and support for disadvantaged groups?
Only to those who fall in line, else they get the tank again.
As in “we are anti imperialists, unless we’re the ones doing the oppression”. Honestly, ime, a common position amongst global south immigrants getting their first high-ish salary in Europe. All about wealth redistribution until you realise you can fly back home and live like a king off those inequalities.

“TaNkIeS hAvE rIgHtWiNg IdEaLs”

The ideals: collectivisation of the means of production and of agricultural land, guaranteed employment, guaranteed housing, free universal healthcare and education to the highest level, guaranteed public pensions, equalization of wages between jobs, push towards unionisation, defence of LGTBQ and women’s rights, defence of indigenous movements and racial minorities, anti-racism, anti-imperialism…

“And that’s why Stalin was so good”

All of that was soo bad under Stalin it’d be hilarious if it wasnt for the millions of easily prevented deaths and all the easily ore entable suffering.

Lol

Wow that’s some swift goalpoast changing, now it isn’t about the USSR anymore lol.

So anyway, here’s the second-most-senior admin of lemmy.ml:

And they’re an absolute dick for saying that, what’s your point
A tankie who is in charge of the biggest tankie instance is a conservative reactionary. Your movement is being led by right wingers. The rightism goes all the way to the top.
A dumbass transphobe being admin in an instance I don’t use (I’m Hexbear user) doesn’t represent my ideology (Marxism-Leninism), and doesn’t even represent the ideology of the people in said instance (there’s been plenty of struggle sessions in said instance about the admin’s transphobic behsviour and widespread condemnation).
You’re a hexbear user, yet you’re on a lemm.ee account. Is that to bypass defederation from instances like drag’s?
I’m a Hexbear user on another account, I don’t know what you’re talking about with “Drag’s” instances, care to tell me?

Drag’s home instance is lemmy.nz.

Why are you using lemm.ee right now instead of Hexbear?

I use both. I like going into lemm.ee to counter some of the most blatant anticommunist propaganda, you’ll see plenty of comments of mine answering people in this post.
drag uses drag as a pronoun there for lemmy.nz is drag’s instance and is a new zealand based instance that defederated from hexbear because the server admin did not like hexbear calling out their colonialist views like all defederations from hexbear/lemmygrad it is political in nature they cannot handle the cognitive dissonance from being proven that they are neoliberal

Oh, Hexbear has plenty of neoliberals too. Just now drag decided to look dragself up on Hexbear, and saw MarmiteLover123 agreeing with the Blahaj moderator decision to label telling trans people to kill neo-nazis as “encouraging suicide”.

drag what does that have to do with the discussion?

comrade is amazed you are not site-banned from blahaj

im surprised ada has not realized you are PMMEFATENBIES / grail / dronerights yet

Maybe she hasn’t realised it because it’s not true. But if you’re calling for Ada to ban drag for advocating trans people to shoot nazis, and you’re still claiming to be a leftist, drag can tell who the troll is here.

no drag should be banned for misgendering and encouraging suicide

not surprised given that you are enbyphobic

You got a link to drag misgendering and encouraging suicide? A screenshot? Or are you going to post a link to drag saying to kill Nazis and say it encourages suicide?

Lemmy.nz is defederated from Hexbear. We don’t want to talk to Hexbear users. We don’t think they’re very nice to be around.

It seems to drag that you’re on lemm.ee because you know nobody wants to listen to Hexbear users. You want to get around the defederation.

And if you’re looking for anticommunist propaganda, you should go back to Hexbear. There are plenty of users on Hexbear who hate communists. Communists believe in a stateless society, and the socialists at Hexbear tend to think that’s foolish. The anticommunist propaganda on Hexbear is one of the many reasons drag is glad to be on lemmy.nz where drag doesn’t have to see that nonsense.

how is the stateless society coming?

maybe we could vote it in!

drag is wrong nutomic is the admin of lemmy.ml only

hexbear is bigger than lemmy.ml in most metrics

nutomic is banned from hexbear
