Turns out finding a good lemmy instance is a huge pain in the ass. I started on lemmy.ml but it was full of tankies so I moved to lemmy.world now they banned piracy so I’m on lemm.ee which gets a lot of crap from tankies still, not as bad as lemmy.ml but it’s really fucking annoying. Like I’m not interested in Russian propaganda or how the soviet union’s genocide was justified actually, please give the user a way to block all tankies and nazies and stop blocking things globally for everyone.
Can someone explain what a tankie is, I keep hearing it and getting called one but have no fucking clue what they’re on about
Also, you could just make an account for the dark side of lemmy for defederated things and then use another for regular usage, no? I basically just switch between accounts through my reader app
Someone who supports authoritarian regimes with socialist aesthetics. Originally coined when the soviet union rolled tanks into Hungary to squash their attempt at independence and there were people in Britain who liked that, those were the original tankies.
Yeah. You can usually find them on any post remotely critical of China or Russia, where they show up enmasse (usually from Hexbear where their explicit goal is to brigade other communities) to defend the genocides they commit because “Well America did it too so it’s okay to murder entire ethnicities” and dismiss any criticism of those countries as “Western propaganda” while simultaneously gobbling up CCP/Russian propaganda like it’s candy. They never argue in good faith, and get off on irritating people.
