Everything I hate is now tankie. We must stop this by getting them to censor what we think is tankie
Those are all Rule 1 violations, which reads, "No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia." (and includes a link up the code of conduct).
These babies are repeating infantilizing orientalist memes and are surprised when the rules are applied to them, lol. Some of them probably don't even realize it because they're so used to playing pretend about the see see pee and the oppressed Chinese people in their imaginations that they actually think they are stating facts.
Deeply unserious people.
PS remember when lemmy.world preemptively defederated from hexbear (in the justification they say defend is "as a last resort" lol)?
Censorship is when an internet forum bans me for my image depicting Xi Jinping as Winnie the Pooh
Lemmy.world must be full of the biggest piss babies of the Lemmyverse. All of the most annoying elements of liberalism mixed together to form the ultimate clown show.

I mean those are the redditors who got so mad about slight decrease in availability of their treat that they left and immediately after their arrival they made their instance into reddit.
Including banning posters for admitting they only post negative Biden stories.
The horror!
uhhh he paused the keystone xl pipeline
raid on corporate landlords (we'll see if that goes anywhere)
child tax credit
oh wait he took that awaypulling out of afghanistan
basically all are from ~2 years ago
oh yeah and Amtrak is getting some much-needed investment, albeit not much
Pulling out of Afghanistan only happened because of Trump funnily enough; he set the date, which Biden pushed back a few times. Corporate landlords maybe getting hit by something would be good, and so is the Amtrak funding.
This admin really is so pathetic I can't come up with much else...he sent out covid stimulus checks, but they were much smaller than promised. He did forgive student loans for a fraction of the populace.
He uh...signed an EO making sure migrants aren't called 'aliens' any longer in government docs?
These people graduated from narcing to a teacher about the most inconsequential shit to whatever the fuck this is.
I’ve been banned from .ml for being a ‘racist’ for being anti-Xi, despite the fact that I am Chinese, and pointed out my ethnicity as such in the discussion. I guess antisemitic Jews aren’t the only weird accusation getting thrown about nowadays.
Lol, oh no. The poster immediately under this is going on some long winded rant that Japan should have been nuked harder, it was the only way to save more people
and also
Lemmy.ml is a cancer on the Fediverse. If we want it to survive, we need to cut it off.
Prime specimen of someone who needs to touch grass, the userbase at lemmy.ml is trash, but not for why they think

It's because we don't have deluxe emojis, isn't it? :jokah:
It’s because you’re not tankie enough
ow my imposter syndrome! :ohnoes:
alright let me get my balalaika and repent
So funny how braindead liberals truly are in the age of the internet and 60+ years of historical analysis and declassified info we have now that wasn't available back then. What do you even call an ideology where you can determine that
Nuking civilians with atom bombs multiple times: Good
Banning me from a fringe forum because I'm ideologically opposed to you: Bad
You're right you're right, liberals I'm so fucking sorry. I don't know how in my warped little authoritarian mind I convinced myself that banning you specifically on the internet is morally superior to nuclear hellfire wiping out entire bloodlines. Please forgive me for the love of god
I think that's a bit reductionist. Their argument was more "I stumbled into an instance that had vastly different views, but I'm from reddit so I only looked at the comm" or something.
I guess Candace Owens isn’t racist after all. She’s a black woman!
Look I just have a sickness that makes me crave arguments with liberals, is that so wrong???
They can’t engage with any topics or offer counter arguments. Every response is:
“I don’t know how to respond to your argument. You must be a _____________[insert ‘racist’ or ‘genocide defending’ or ‘fascist’ or my new favorite ‘zionist’]”
lmaooooooooo what a massive self report
Funny self-report, but also clearly just a lie. Has any lib on Hexbear NOT received massive walls of text and sources as a response to their chuddery?
The typical experience is that they receive a bunch of ppb but also some effort posters try to explain things to them genuinely then they only reply to the ppb saying that it proves we have no real response while ignoring all the real responses they got.
They've become the "sly" fascists of yesteryear. "You SJWs just call everyone who supports genocide a fascist, you're afraid to DEBATE MEEE"
I looked up the OP in the modlog and saw:
reason: Show
Nice to see our mods aren't the only ones with a sense of humor
Holy shit the lack of self awareness.
LemmyWorld did this EXACT thing to absolutely everyone posting a view left of the US State Dept. It's what got Hexbear defederated, it's what got me banned despite the fact I broke NO rules besides supporting Lenin/USSR and posting about those things.
They are ridiculous. They do this exact thing to everyone to their left and then they can't fucking take it if anyone else does it to them. Even when in this case it's just literally cracking down on the mindless misinformation and bullshit libs peddle about this event.
When they unban lenins2ndcat so I can go back to the massive amount of effective posting I was doing on their instance then they can start whining about censorship elsewhere. They do it themselves if a communist is effective enough to get upvotes there. There were a dozen subreddits ready to migrate too and they killed that shit stonedead and put the brakes on the entire movement to swap from reddit to lemmy with their bullshit. Literally everyone saw what lemmyworld was doing and said nahhhh fuck that in the backrooms at the peak of everyone being motivated to move.
If your libs only instances are too small to be worth interacting in, that sounds like a personal problem
This libs only instance is certainly big enough that I forget there are others until I see one of the few cool posters from other libs only instances.
The post that got that user banned and mad enough to make a whole ass post about it :
Show
The mod response:
Show
"You're all secretly Chinese spies!"
gets banned for being annoying
"I KNEW IT"
That may be a statistical fluke, since most of the active tanks on the planet are US manufactured, haven't seen maintenance since the first Bush admin, and were only built to function in the desert as long as the wind isn't blowing too hard.
I thought maybe it was a comment on how stuff like drones and global imaging have made modern warfare revolve around long-range artillery/unmanned aerial strikes and then rapid troop movement
i also have no idea what I'm talking about
This. With human carry able weapons that can vaporize a tank, tanks are basically just clunky mobile artillery.
That was always the case though, yet tanks were useful. I would say drones are much more impactful, just as the increasing cost and complexity of tanks made tanks much rarer and thus decreased the role of most important antitank weapon (other tank) too.
Tanks can do the same to other tanks and humans over much longer ranges and more precisely.
Ukrainian mercs were very sad to learn that their famous javelins were outranged by several magnitudes by russian tanks.
It is only in urban areas where your argument holds true.
I figured it was more a statement of how engagements now aren't really in areas tanks can be used effectively. Like citys
Yeah exactly, that's why Ukraine and Russia have both stopped using tanks entirely.
They're used to being able to silence anyone to their left. Turns out they can't take what they were dishing out.
It would totally fit in as a badposting effort post
The supporting evidence is a cable from a British guy who heard all these terrible things from a random source. I wonder why that source's account differs from all the other contemporary reports of that day
A lot of the dead bodies in those pictures are specifically labeled PLA soldiers too
Idiots
People are naive if they think the .ml admins and devs don’t intend to keep their thumb on the Lemmy scale. More instances need to take this threat seriously and defederate from .ml, and possibly even fork the Lemmy repos for when the devs inevitably decide they want to start building quiet exploits into the code. There are serious cyber security implications here that people are sleeping on
Honestly unhinged.
That’s the most frustrating part. These “leftists” are the stupid kind who seem to care more about relitigating idiotic cold war drama than evolving or pushing forward leftist philosophy. It’s straight up brain rot, mixed with obvious right wing agitprop disguised as leftist ideology.
What cold war drama? What right wing agitprop?
A hexbear in that thread is literally claiming that “the soldiers did everything they could to avoid hurting him” when there’s a photo of him lying dead on the street after the tanks have gone through. They don’t think it’s fine, they’re saying it didn’t happen (curious) [47]
Doesn't post the proof, unfortunately. Fortunately, a bunch of other people are correcting them.
The threat is bigger than that though. These people control the code base and can easily just start running modified code to fuck with various aspects of federation to generally keep their finger on the scale of any instance which federates with them. At best they have shown they have no shame and cannot be trusted. If there is any means of abusing their power, it must be assumed that they will embrace it.
Again literally no evidence that .ml has abused the federation algorithm or whatever.
Also it's open source so if you want to see what's in the code base just go fuckin look?
And if you don't know how to read the code then shut the fuck up?
Libs are deeply unserious
Yup, it would be so easy to show if something malicious was in the code. But for all the fear mongering they do, I haven't seen anyone show even a snippet of code.
He wanted to sound smart while knowing nothing about coding, open source and cybersecurity.
At best they have shown they have no shame and cannot be trusted. If there is any means of abusing their power, it must be assumed that they will embrace it.
Love it when they start feeling themselves and just end up talking like a Netflix show character.
Like what does this mean
we have no shame (true) and that means we're untrustworthy for some reason
also commies powerhungry and that's why...checks notes...we constantly fight for the powerless instead of selling out to a capitalist?
we really need to study these tadpoles
feddit still doesn't seem like a real instance name.
