When I look up the definition of tankie I see something about authoritarian communism. Can you explain your comment I'm just curious

Everyone on .ml is a tankie. Everyone on .world is a fascist. Lemmy loves its serverism, unfortunately.

People can't comprehend that different people can have different opinions, apparently. There needs to be an easier explanation for it such as "tankie" or "fascist". "Idiot/ignorant" is a much more believable explanation,.imo

Trying to get rid of Zelensky now is russian propaganda when only a small part of the country are able to vote. It would strip the democratic rights away from those living in captured territory.

Don’t pretend this is about the people in Donetsk or Luhansk. Like those people had any democratic rights before the war…
