At this point I doubt tankies should be much of a concern. What are they, 1-2% of the potential Dem voter base? I'd sooner worry about the indecisive ones who have seen the performances in the debate.

They're just very loud on this site.

They’re loud on every site. Their goal is to normalize disenfranchisement. They’re either knowingly or unknowingly doing the job for Republicans.

They're especially loud here because Lemmy's developers are tankies. Some are even supposedly former Chapo Trap House peeps that got kicked off reddit. It's the most annoying part of this place trying to be a reddit replacement. But it's getting better with users calling them out.

Exactly. More specifically, I'm not afraid of how people vote, I'm afraid of people choosing not to.

Add a .000 in front of those numbers and you might be right. If those numbers were accurate you would expect somewhere between, what...1 and 2 million tankies in the US alone?

[-] Aqarius@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

No, see, that would mean there are people out there who disagree with me who aren't either tankies or maga, and that impossible because that would mean... that would... oh no...
