Can someone inform me about what's wrong with lemmy.ml?
The ml stands for Marxist-Leninist, and the admins are tankies
oh, please not this shit again
I feel u. Inter-instance wars are cringe asf🤦
Big agree, I really wish people from ml and hex would stop brigading communities they don't like
Real shit how the fuck are people gonna claim hex is trans friendly after how they acted on 196@blahaj?
Because Hex says they're the most trans-friendly because "don't be transphobic" is in the rules so it must be true.
They are tankies
I am thinking about tanks, explain.
The iconic Tiananmen square "Tank man" photo, where one guy stands in front of a column of tanks on their way to slaughter pro-democracy protesters, briefly stopping them. Tankies are lunatics that wish for authoritarian communism and so unironically support the tanks running him over.
Not the origin of the word.
This dates back to Hungarian revolution in 1956 and tanks being deployed by USSR.
Where the fuck do you libs get your misinformation from?
That's not where the term comes from.

I’m confused. What are you saying? That word is thrown around against socialists. Tankies is often used to shut someone down and ignore what they're saying no matter how correct it is, or how little it has to do with Marxism.
https://lemmy.world/post/16211417
Probably because Marxism is an inherently flawed political system, and every country that has ever attempted it has quickly become a hellhole.

Sure. They're not far enough to the right for some of .world's centrists, who are very upset that some people from .ml are outspoken opponents of genocide. And as such, they have for the third time designated an instance to be the "tankie instance" that they desperately want .world to defederate from. .world's centrists will continue this until they have convinced the admins to defederate from .ml, at which point they will once again find a new instance to designate as "tankies" and start the pressure to remove it.
They consider .world's neoliberalism to be the leftmost acceptable boundary of political thought, and will do anything to limit the discussion accordingly.
Nah im just not a big fan of anyone who simps for putin and the taliban, it's really that simple. If they weren't a bunch of tankie edgelords I'd honestly consider making a hex account, some communities there are neat but not worth having to see all that shit lol
Have you already decided what the next "tankie instance" is gonna be?
I hate liberals exactly as much as you do, if not more. That doesn't mean I have to stand by people trying to justify homes and children being stolen from Ukraine, or how China actually isn't doing any genocide, or how Taliban Good bc they fight ISIS and don't like the US
Do they not support Netanyahu's genocide stridently enough for your liking?
You're living rent free in my head rn, it's genuinely bewildering that you somehow think i support zionism or some shit. I didn't get called a trump supporter by a bunch of l*bs just so other leftists can baselessly accuse me of supporting Israel. The fuck is your deal? You think someone can't dislike both Israel AND Russia? Seriously please explain this, I'm at a loss for fucking words as to how hating a government that wants me dead means I support murdering children in Gaza, I'm kinda seething about it tbh
Yes, I can tell because you're so angry that you're leaving multiple unhinged replies to single comments.
My deal is that I don't think that the hatred for ml is rooted in anything having to do with Russia. I think it's because centrists want anyone to their left (and only their left) to be silenced.
My hatred for Russia is rooted in the fact that their government would oppress the shit out of me for being trans, and that hatred extends to you if you're trying to defend Russia or insinuate that I'm a liberal. Why in the fuck are you trying to do leftist infighting WITH SOMEONE THAT AGREES WITH YOU ON GODDAMN EVERYTHING???? I love infighting !! I love baselessly accusing other leftists of supporting genocide!!!!
Go fuck yourself cunt. Trans rights, fuck putin💖
Why the fuck are you assuming all this shit about me xD I hate Putin and I hate Biden, they both do a bunch of genocide, why do you assume I'm not 100% on your side? I very much am unless you think Putin is cool and based and doing good things in Ukraine
I have literally spent the last like 6 months getting banned from .world communities for disagreeing with liberals about the genocide in Gaza, if you missed all that that's on you. Don't assume I'm a libt4rd just bc I don't jack off to a pinup Putin on my wall
I haven't seen any other instances where the majority of users simp for putin and the taliban, so nope :3
That's what lemmy's centrists said when the last two instances got defederated.
If the last two you're referring to are grad and hex, good riddance :3 I'd rather not be seeing blatant Stalin or North Korea apologia in my communities
So what's the next one? As long as world isn't the leftmost instance, there will be a next one. Is it gonna be .ee? midwest.social?
It's gonna be whatever one you're on you authoritarian asswipe. Get the fuck off this instance you tankie cunt, it's not for you
