You literally sound like the trolls on ML and Grad SMH

They’re a useful idiot.

Those people aren’t acting in good faith no matter how much they say it.

That seems weird and also slightly on the abusive side, literally unbanning and rebanning just to make a post come through.

Yeah I agree, tankies are the worst. Fuck tankies!

world defederates grad. I did see one on the ml version of this post though.

I agree. Tankie trolls really need to stop supporting fascist (might as well just call them what they are) regimes like Russia and China, while claiming to have the best interests of leftists at heart. It’s extremely divisive because people end up associating that fucked up shit with real leftists, which it isn’t, not by a long shot.

That seems very accurate. I actually made a post on those right wing talking points specifically about Lemmy Dev @nutomic@lemmy.ml saying them to someone when they asked him about making a Lemmy plugin. It was really bad.

Holy shit. I never tried to sign up there so I didn’t even know that’s a thing. Jesus christ…

Well there was only one and they seem to have dropped it to work on Sublinks, in the end both died.

Yes, they are one of the few people who make big decisions when it comes to the development of Lemmy, and if they do it with bias they can cause problems for the rest of us. Especially since Sublinks is basically dead, no new development happening there. Lemmy is all we have right now, so we’re stuck with it until something else with a Lemmy-compatible DB comes along.

Tell me about them Pride parades and gender clinics in Russia. If I’m such a liar and these countries are such a bastion of LGBTQ rights tell me about how Russia affirms and protects LGBTQ people. So far it seems they’ve banned people from talking about it or displaying symbols of it, and they make it very hard to access treatment, plus there’s a fair amount of social stigma and violence.

Shouldn’t compare tankies to Atlas, even if you’re trying to make a statement about your own narcissism, it’s really insulting to Atlas.

Still isn’t over yet.

Not entirely sure. I don’t know if the OP shared their original message.

It’s possible, though it’s also possible he’s referencing any instance of a trans woman winning at all. As is common for transphobes who wish to gatekeep trans people from sports.

Yeah, no way else one could fund a meme like this. There totally aren’t Free image editors out there that let you put text on a stock image.

It’s good for their beliefs to be challenged, even briefly, hence the importance of posting it in their nest. There’s not much point in posting it only in places where everyone agrees with you, it’ll just produce head nodding but little action and even fewer examples of how and why they are bad.

You’re trying to argue that tankie doesn’t mean anything anymore. I’m saying it has a clearly defined definition, and you said you know what it is, acknowledging that that is what it means, therefore we’re on the same page. You never voiced your opinion on how you feel on tankies or what they do so I don’t know what your opinion is. Only your opinion on the definition.

Good, we’re all on the same page then?
