I don't know if this is the right community, if it isn't warn me and I'll move the post!

So I saw a meme about piracy on reddit (apparently a tankie HQ) and I wanted to share it on the biggest piracy instance on the fediverse, with good intentions I post, it gets some replies, but the funny thing is I can't reply as the post has been removed by the admins of that instance.

I couldn't care less, it's just a low-quality meme, in fact I'm amused more than I'm sad. These libs are doing what the US state dept was doing during the cold war FOR FREE!

I hope you all can share my amusement at the fact that apparently all it takes nowadays to be called a tankie is to be against big tech and to post from a mainstream instance. You don't even have to be a communist, it's full paranoia on their part at this point.

The meme in question, nothing "tankie" about it as far as I can tell.

Edit: btw the community about censorship on lemmy has been.... Eliminated

        They allow anarchists and communists, just not the kind of socialist who says we can't do a communist revolution right away, and instead we have to do a socialist revolution and then slowly reach communism over a century of slow, moderate reforms. People who are opposed to the idea of achieving communism within their own lifetimes aren't communists, because why would they be? They're always saying to slow down, don't rock the boat, don't be too radical. Standing in the way of communists who want to actually do communism.

        Unfortunately, db0 has secret rules against being autistic so fuck em.
