    Tankies on Lemmy are 100% right wing trolls pretending to be leftists. They aren’t even trying to hide it at this point.

      One of them on chapotraphouse said “I’m gonna vote for Trump just so see the US finally burn to the ground” and I replied “horseshoe theory: confirmed” and the mods removed my comment lmao

        I’ve had one case on lemmy.ml where they deleted many of my comments but kept the brigading comments responding.

        There are definitely lines that some mods will defer to one side.

          I opened accounts on multiple instances due to the instability (and information propagation dynamics) of individual ones. I figured “why not?” I had several Reddit accounts, after all, and it just seemed to make sense.

          I thought lemmy.ml was for machine learning. The UI I was using didn’t include self-descriptions.

        Someone accused me of denying the Holocaust because I said Poland didn’t invade the Soviet union

          I got a ban on Lemmy for “genocide denial” for saying the Russian invasion of Ukraine had traits of genocide.

          These people are shockingly propagandized.

            Crazy how tankies support Russia (despite them not even being communist, domestic abuse, treatment of gay people, and ties with conservatives). And are just okay with Russia killing entire villages of Ukraines because their supposed Nazi government (didn’t let a Russian puppet in government).
