We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies, but here they’re mostly on what’s known as the Tankie Triad: lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. For the most part, grad and hex are widely defederated from (Users and content of those instances won’t be “synced” and you won’t see them) and you only have to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you’d rather just not deal with them. .ml tends to be more subtle opting for censorship of dissent before things get crazy on their threads and allowing certain propaganda to flourish (If you wish to see documentation of it, checkout !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works ) Here on Lemmy all moderator actions are public and available for viewing on what’s known as the “modlog”
Obligatory, fuck Spez
what’s known as the Tankie Triad
The first time I got on Lemmy, one of the first posts I looked at I saw someone complaining about the Tankie Triad. I was like, “holy shit that’s exactly what I’m looking for!” Libs light my path, he thought he was warning me, instead I found my new home.
Swear to God Blue MAGA is just as closed minded and intellectually bigoted as their Republican counterparts, right down to throwing around silly nicknames for people they don’t like and ignoring/refusing to hear any point of view they disagree with. They are just as mean spirited and equally impervious to evidence as any conservative
You picked the best of the three. No shade at @dessalines@lemmy.ml for kicking off this whole party.
This is literally one person with a personal crusade, I think, lol.
It is a bit disturbing how COINTELPRO seems to just be a self-perpetuating thing now. Like these people (probably) aren’t feds or even agents of feds, but they do the work all the same.
Thanks @Diva@lemmy.ml for this one.
some day it will lose relevance … I hopeThats a banger, thanks
Capital brain: Doing the work of capitalists pro-bono thinking that one day they’ll let you into the club too. Fucking tools.
for all the shit-talking of the “tankie triad” they are right about one thing: it’s the only place where lemmy doesn’t seem like reddit from 2016
pretty bad sales pitch to spend the last third on that rant lol

those tankies who made the modlog hate the mod log! - - the logic of people is terrifying sometimes. Still no idea if cm a child or not
“we love the modlog!”
“tankies made the modlog”
“wow the tankies made the modlog to publically punish dissent how evil!”
professional brain-havers at work over there
One of the myriad crimes of imperialism is that everyone in the world is forced to listen to people like this.
“myopic protestors” dudes will be late to the job that they hate ONE time
Predditors, everything you’ve heard about hexbear dot net is true
This puts CMs age at a minimum, 30. But could be 40.
Please, God, tell me this isn’t true. Tell me an adult did not write this.
SMH, @LemmySlopSkimmer@hexbear.net, if you’re going to skim Lemmy slop, you have to post the original thread.
Thanks for doing gods work posting slop. I have users like this blocked so I can quarantine them to this community.
Oh, we’re part of the triad now? I thought the last position was some other instance.
it still bothers me that they keep calling it a triad when it’s clearly a troika
[this is what lemmy anti-communists actually believe]
