"America bad therefore all adversaries are good and all adversaries' actions are good."

[-] odium@programming.dev 1 points 3 months ago

How is the idea that two evils can fight each other so hard to understand? Not all fights are between a good and a evil.

[-] RudeOnTuesdays@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Seriously. There are also people on Lemmy that think anyone who has sympathy for civilians also support terrorists.

How absolutely fucking brain-dead do you have to be to not understand that killing civilians is wrong? You can hate the rulers of Israel, Hamas, and Hezbollah while simultaneously hoping that Israeli, Palestinian, and Lebanese civilians don't get hurt.

This isn't rocket science.

[-] Marin_Rider@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

only some civilians. say you don't agree with random rockets being launched into Israel makes you a Zionist genocide supporter according so so many hateful people here

Emotions run high. Makes it difficult to see the bigger picture.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca -1 points 3 months ago

Hate the Nazis, not the Germans

[-] fuckingkangaroos@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Hate the Kremlin, not the Russians.

[-] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I read "Hate the Kermit" first, and man, did that make me angry. How could you hate Kermit.

You simply side with the weaker side. Losing is a sign of virtue. /s

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

That explains why they are fans of Russia as well.

[-] Fox@pawb.social -1 points 3 months ago

It doesn't help that they have the emotional maturity of toddlers

[-] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online -1 points 3 months ago

Also the intellectual maturity.

[-] FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 3 months ago

You’ve got to wonder how much of it is genuine and how much is some in a third world country being paid by putin/xi to spread propaganda on social media

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I was blocking most lammy.ml communities I encountered. I finally just blocked all the lammy.ml instances. Its mostly trash there and I will find some place else.

[-] stoly@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

That plus hex and lemigrad. It just cleans your feed.

[-] Mammothmothman@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago
[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Go to setting and select block. go to the bottom and put lemmy.ml in the search and block. I blocked three lemmy.ml instances. So far they are the only one I've blocked.

For opensource communities (the one topic their communities are usually quite popular)

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

Thankfully now that there are lots of viable alternatives. Plenty of those communities are moving or winding down. I would like to see more do what the KDE devs did. And have their own official communities whenever possible. Of course Mozilla only tried Mastodon but took theirs down already

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 0 points 3 months ago

I would like to see more do what the KDE devs did. A

They have their own instance: https://lemmy.kde.social/

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Aye that was the next part of the bit you quoted that I mentioned that. And I am definitely subscribed to it.

It just makes far more sense for open Source projects. Than associating themselves so closely with toxic political ideologies like capitalism or leninism.

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Ah indeed, sorry misread your comment

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Well one of the mods over there is a clearly pro-Russian account.

I've been banned from that community (and all others on Lemmy.ml he is a mod on) several times by this account: davel@lemmy.ml

https://reddit.moonbeam.town/u/davel@lemmy.ml

https://lemmygrad.ml/u/davel

He absolutely refuses to answer the question "are you pro-Russian" while fiercely touting Russian propaganda, saying Russian propaganda doesn't exist at all, denying Uighur genocide, advocating against Ukraine, all that jazz.

Ten bucks says he comes here whining about stalking again while refusing to answer if he supports Putler or not.

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Tankies will never, ever wander outside of their safe spaces. Despite them being able to talk here, none do it, mainly because then they'd have their bigotry and extremism challenged.

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

True enough.

let's see if we can't ping him here though @davel@lemmy.ml idk how the pings work on Lemmy if the last didn't ping him lol

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago
[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I bet he reads it though.

[-] index@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

No doubt there's russia government propaganda out there but advocating against the ukrainian authoritarian government is not automatically "enemy" propaganda

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Advocating against Ukraine in the context of the Russo-Ukrainian war, by spreading pretty much verbatim what Russian state news is touting.

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 months ago

"Does not make you an hero"

Id hope not

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

You never know in tankie land. They see Stalin as the great liberator

[-] ErinCrush@lemm.ee -1 points 3 months ago

I can't believe this is a community lmao. Libs are so weird.

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works -1 points 3 months ago

Murder fantasies are much weirder.

Welcome to MoG!


Meanwhile On Grad


Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!


What is a Tankie?


Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)


Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia(Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.

You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
