I made PANCAKES

hate furries as much as the next sane person

I hope you mean 0, because that’s what it should be for a sane person

Imagine hating someone for their choice of harmless hobbies

FYI to anyone who comes across this, HilariousChaos is a “Gentler friendlier” ExplodingHeads instance, a hard right-wing instance that allowed all manner of bigotry and hate that died when other instances started defed’ing from them

Maybe 10 minutes? Good wake up for sure

Ha ha yea for sure fellow runner and morning person!

Starts slowly stepping back

Oof boy do I feel another torturun coming on

Runs…away

The market is clearly there atm,

Things are probably getting serious now LMAO Keep it up EU!

I’ve checked what comm I’m in and the URL several times, this is !nottheonion@lemmy.world

I want to post it to ND so bad, but I know it’ll just get removed under the no national politics rule lol

(Which isnt the worst rule TBH lmao)

Well DUH Don’t you LiBrUlS know? Line going up is nothing but woke DEI propaganda!11!!11!!! Drump just sees through all that and courageously makes line go down!!!1!111

I apply it where it’s justified, Yogthos is infamous for it, along with davel and head honcho themself dessalines

.ml is labeled a tankie instance because dessalines and davel are admins who censor any non-tankie dissent/speech

I haven’t seen anything I would classify as ‘patriotic’ socialism. Those types get roundly mocked when they show up. There are a lot of positive opinions of the USSR, but I haven’t seen anyone seriously saying Russia in the current day is anything but a reactionary hellhole to live in.

But I have seen those kinds of comments, ok take !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works out of the equation and the “out of context” screenshots as you call them.

I have personally read and even gotten into “debates” with the infamous .ml tankies like davel, dessalines and yogthos that did say things like Russia is great and Putin is a great leader fully justified to invade Ukraine, that there is no censorship in China and that NK isn’t a brutal dictatorship

What’s the rationale there?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.

Yea, “authoritarianism praiser” is too unwieldy, maybe I could balance it out with “authoritarianist”?

Haha no, I’m certainly not a tankie lmaooo

You’ve said more than every tankie I’ve ever seen, I don’t even think you’re that much of a tankie. You’ve always been the “odd one out” tankie whenever I’ve seen you around.

Do you honestly not see what the folks you defend say? Just saying “Russia sucks” earnestly like that, is probably the first time I’ve seen that. The closest I’ve ever seen out of a tankie was similar to “even if they are that bad, it’s totally worth it because the West is sooo much worse…”

This has got to be the first politically related comment from you I’ve ever upvoted. Ya know Diva I’ve never tagged you as a tankie or defender like the others, I could never find a proper tag for your profile, your comments are always…odd with what I’ve come to expect from tankies and their defenders.

They’ll write a very strongly worded email!

I do not think I have seen you once criticize China or Russia, because if you had you would be more in line with me than you think.

Every government has done things worthy of praise and condemnation. To me an anarchist, at the very least, would be shitting on all the governments from the US to the CCP to the DPRK and everywhere in between

But I don’t see that from you or any other known tankie who also claims to be an anarchist. You have a pretty clear pattern of criticizing the West and then covering for what should be criticized of the CCP/Russia/NK etc.

:(

“Vibes based” hilarious considering I’ve been collecting actual hard documentation of what y’all say and do, and it’s right in line with the definition of a tankie

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereo

https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/tankie

(politics, slang, derogatory, by extension) A supporter of policies and actions by the Soviet Union, China, Cuba or other authoritarian socialist (chiefly Marxist-Leninist) governments.
