Seeing libs seethe about “too many tankies” is really funny.
On stuff outside of lemmygrad, we are receiving a lot of hate, especially by those who just moved from Reddit. Guess they lost their hidden privilege at Reddit as their rhetoric used to be almost universal over there, while genzedong and our other subs get censored and banned. And now, on lemmy, their stuff isn’t universal, as we are more prevalent here. Seems like they really want that hidden privilege back
I wonder if it's struck them yet that, as their neoliberal platform fails, other platforms built on fundamentally better ideas and infrastructure are rising up. I wonder if this challenges their preconceived notions at all? Nah, it's just a bunch of tankies.
I saw someone comment, in an almost gleeful manner "I didn't even know of the word Tankie until today!" like a kid who just learned about the word "Fuck". 🙄
It is definitely inducing cognitive dissonance. The developers are simply are communists trying to collectivize social media, and that will live in their heads rent free as long as they stick around.
Idk man, I got a temporary ban for saying that ACAB means all cops and some dipshit told me to read Lenin's State and Revolution lmao. Seems to me like a lot of people on here are just having dick measuring contests about how far left they are.
That post on !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone got me fked up because one of the comments there was like “authoritarian communism” is an oxymoron actually 🤓 and another was like “Marxism is not materialism” and it had double digit upvotes.
Like jesus WHAT THE FUXK are you on about.
Read Marx and Engels.
Read Lenin.
dear comrades living and dead, please help give me the self control not to try arguing with all the "Lemmy is anti human rights" takes polluting the fediverse rn 🙏
Everyone click on the All button and start participating in federation.
Worst thing that can happen is the liberals complain.
But if you're going to be participating on lemmy.ml please don't make the admins' job harder, respect the instance rules. They're already working overtime to handle the influx of new users across the software.
If you're going to throw around "liberals" as some sort of derogatory "us vs them" term then you should probably think twice before clicking all.
There are two sides to any coin. Check yourself before you shit on other people, to make sure you're not just proving yourself to be at least as bad as them.
i hate to say it, but i don't want the network effect taking off. in fact, that's a sign it's time to leave.
is it possible to ever just have a smallish community where real discussion and ideas can flourish without the rest of the US dragging everything down to the lowest common denominator?
Man.. I haven't been on reddit in quite a while but I don't remember it being such a shitlibfest. It's really bad and it pretty well overran lemmy.ml immediately.
