I just joined Lemmy and I have already seen a comment from a tankie telling all Americans to "rot and die" in this same community. So no, it's not all wholesome.
Bonus points if the tankie was American themselves.
And double bonus points with sprinkles on top of it was a bot or shill pretending to be an American.
extra points if the user was from lemmygrad
Is lemmygrad what I think it is?
Probably. It's one of the instances dedicated to Marxist-Leninists. I block some communities there due to not wanting to deal with apologia for what I see as crimes against humanity but, there are also meme communities, etc. Also, despite significant differences, the user interactions that I've had have been much less vitriolic than other parts of the Internet.
A Leningrad pun, yes.
If it helps, it only ever seems to be the tankies, which are progressively becoming the minority. I'm sure more dicks will show up in future waves, maybe, but...I'm kinda seeing the point of just the lowest possible entry hurdles.
Actually, hold on, tumblr was talking about ActivityPub a few months ago, so if they ever actually do that and do it functionally, that will change the culture pretty substantially. Much more weeb/sociopolitical. I'm happily fucking out of the politics here by choice.
Yeah, anyone who makes a comment similar to that I always assume they're a tankie. They are extremely easy to identify based on their comments.
Pretty sure a lot of them are Kremlin/CCP LLMs.
I suppose the difference is the LLM knows how to build a weapon.
The good thing about Lemmy it depends of the instance.
