- …well that’s a new way to say “don’t provide citations for your position”
disclaimer i have no opinion on this “media bias/fact check”, site. i just think the “don’t outsource critical thinking” comment is hilarious
- The comment that got me banned from a half dozen communities
Edit: changed post to use Imgur link instead of downloading a file
What a bunch of fucking babies, lol
- If only the famously homophobic US military hadn't become less homophobic 10 years ago! THEN there wouldn't be centuries of history of homophobia in The Global South(tm)
Goodness, I almost had a dangerous thought, like "The struggles we experience in Western countries largely have analogues in non-Western countries" instead of "Every Problematic Opinion(tm) held by non-Western societies is The West's fault"
- Tankie try not to sound like a fascist drooling over 'warrior cultures' challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
Entirely coincidentally, this is what will lead the German Volk to Overcome the Timid English Shopkeeper(tm)
- I'm a hot commodity!
After someone mentioned me without tagging me on the Return2Ozma thread drama, I decided to Lemmy search my name to see what else I was missing out on. I didn't realize I was so popular with the "People who defend tankies" demographic of Lemmy! Apparently, I'm a brainrotted liberal debate lord (simultanously, without any beliefs) who hates every leftist movement in existence, is a wedge between liberals and leftists, and sees imaginary tankies everywhere.
I mean, obviously, since I've made a whole 9 posts about them, including posts on "MeanwhileOnGrad" (5 if you exclude MeanwhileOnGrad and TankieJerk), over my past year on the Fediverse (out of ~1,570 total posts). Clearly, if it wasn't for me, the leftists would have finally joined hands with the liberals to sing kumbaya together.
That's a lot of work I have to put in when all I want to do is browse politics and post history minutiae without having to worry about people advocating genocide or fascism, but I wouldn't want to disappoint any of them!
Also, apparently they think I'm Yeetpics? Which is a strange connection to make, considering our writing styles are... very different.
EDIT: And Joe Biden's strongest warrior! Wow!
- I am genuinely confused by hexbear's opinion on the Ukraine war
What I have learned:
- Russia has already won the Ukraine war
- Which NATO started
- A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender
- Also Ukraine was the world's main provider of CSAM
- Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright
It's literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I'm genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)
- "Fascism is undefinable, but also only I know what fascism truly is (it's when I FEEL it's fascism)"
For bonus points, they said 'liberal' at the start of every quote to the point of semantic satiation
- It's insanely curious to see Tankie's complete silence regarding China recently reopening diplomatic relationships with the US, Philipines and Europe.
Like there's not even a quip like "US so weak it needs to be friends with China"
There's just nothing
- Tankie lemmy devs blacklist the anime instance from join-lemmy.org and lemmy.mlani.social [Announcement] Lemmy.ml has defederated from ani.social (and what this means for us) - AniSocial
Please do not say anything hateful to the Lemmy.ml [http://Lemmy.ml] admins or the developers. Before commenting on this thread, please read the post completely. — We (ani.social) have been defederated from Lemmy.ml [http://Lemmy.ml] a few hours ago presumably for the reason of being “full of CSAM” ...
- Lemmy Developers add genocide-denialists as Lemmygrad admins.
Note: So far only Admins. The newest Lemmy Developer has yet to become an Admin, you probably remember them from when they started questioning the point of their life.
