i'm not downvoting because i'm a tankie, but because misrepresenting them as right wing helps literally nobody

[–] CypherBorz@lemm.ee 9 points 10 hours ago

that's like tankies or something

I think it's important to downvote them and even make them feel unwelcome. You can't let Nazis and white supremacists in your communities because any community that doesn't kick out Nazis will eventually find itself overrun by Nazis fleeing communities that kick them out.

You don't need to argue or make a fuss, but make sure to downvote anyone who doesn't believe all people are born equal and that people have a right to choose what to do and who to love.

there are right wing instances?

[–] boolean_sledgehammer@lemmy.world 12 points 13 hours ago

The fact that you don't know about them says the system is working.

I'm not entirely shocked. They get kicked off mainstream sites regularly, they need somewhere for their echo chamber to exist.

Let’s take a look at HC’s local front page right now:

• First post is pro-Elon, uses “woke” as a derogatory term

• Second post is anti-science transphobia

• Third post is the same story as the first post, says a “hate crime” was committed by the “woke” person, article is on Breitbart [EDIT: fixed a typo I made here]

• Fourth post is ok, fairly normal, but posted by an avid poster for the site named Donald Musk

• Fifth post follows the suit of the fourth post

• Sixth post is transphobia for sports, article is on Breitbart

• Seventh post follows the suit of the fourth and fifth post

• Eighth post is by a news bot, headline says Israel is gonna keep doing what they do

• Ninth post is ok, just a banal joke

• Tenth post paints Tesla as a victim of violence, article is on Breitbart

• Eleventh post is saying most voters prefer moderate Democrats over “radical” AOC & Sanders, article is on Breitbart

• Twelfth post is anti-science transphobia

• Thirteenth post is by a news bot about Canada’s Carney’s plan (I don’t know enough about Canada’s politics to know where this guy stands on things)

• Fourteenth post is by a news bot about Anti-Trump rallies, headline seems politically neutral

• Fifteenth post is anti-science, pro-Trump, COVID conspiracy theories, article is on Breitbart

• Sixteenth post is ok, just a joke

• Seventeenth post is by an admin trying to save face by soliciting mods for a token leftwing community on their site, the only volunteer is one of the above posters of anti-science transphobia

• Eighteenth post is in German about some technology?

• Nineteenth post is by news bot about US attacking Yemen

I couldn't take it anymore. I've had this alt for so many days now. I just got banned from a bunch of heir drumpfkins fluffer conservative communities today. I needed some entertainment to lift my spirits.

I watched a documentary about their ancestors while I commented freely. It's called Deliverance. You should check it out.
