"POV: This thread" with an image of a deeply nested Lemmy thread

Locking as people have reached the point where they're just insulting each other/telling each other to kill themselves.

Are anti-genocide "tankies" really the biggest threat to democracy right now?

Fascists and Nazis are in the white house destroying the US. They are also on the verge of taking over and destroying Europe.

Everyone to the left of fascism needs to unite together to stop the neo-Nazis before it is too late. If the Nazis are allowed to start ww3 then nukes will end us all.

Yeah right now, I don't care about tankies all that much. Are they annoying at times? Fuck yes. Are they a threat to my life? Fuck no.

I don't mind moderating content online, but its fucking weird people are more pressed about Tankies online, spending more time about them than Trump. At least memes can maybe sway someone about the terminally online, it doesn't stop Trump when someone shares a meme.

I guess so, but they seem a bit more focused on liberals than conservatives.

Criticizing Marxists on a community that is federated with the largest Marxist-aligned instances will indeed result in a struggle session.

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago (12 children)

Not criticising marxists, just tankies.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -2 points 6 days ago

Given that "tankie" means anyone to the left of Elizabeth Warren, Marxists are a subset of tankies.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

As we already discussed, if the vast majority of Marxists fit the definition of "tankie" you gave, then it's just a pejorative for Marxists. The Black Panther Party supported and was influenced by the DPRK, if you count that as "glorifying," in your own words, then the Black Panthers were tankies. If you don't, and believe them to have been sufficiently nuanced, then "tankies" practically do not exist on Lemmy.

Alright, forget the word tankie.
People who

  • Support modern russia and/or are opposed to Ukraine
  • Deny that the Uyghurs were mistreated by china
  • Think the DRPK is a nice place to live right now.
[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -3 points 6 days ago

That definition doesn't even apply to the people you're critising

it's so fucking true

Anytime they pull you into an argument, suddenly 5 more show up to try and overwhelm you. There's no way it isn't a deliberate tactic.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

I had three at once ask me why no one was defending me. I just said i didn't need anyone to brigade for me. They didn't seem to like that answer lol

[–] frank@frank.casa 1 points 1 week ago

That is a tactic they learned from real life tanks. Argue with one tank, more tanks show up.
