I lack diplomacy when I get annoyed.
I assure you, that has stopped nobody here -- especially not the tankies -- do not let it stop you.
What is a tankie?
users from lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad who generally believe that Russia, China, and North Korea can do no wrong, among other things. They (usually) correctly criticize the US or its allies for their imperialist actions or atrocities or human rights abuses while simultaneously handwaving away any imperialist actions, atrocities or human rights abuses in those countries as "Western propaganda". It is generally pointless to argue with them, and fortunately as of late the latter two have mostly stayed contained to their respective cesspits -- .ml users, on the other hand, tend to wander about and regularly start whiteknighting for China on other instances.
Generally, you should block those instances and you'll stop seeing posts from their communities, but unfortunately you'll still see their comments. Only solution for that is manually blocking individual users, which is especially true for .ml as the developers of lemmy (who are tankies themselves) have previously tried to position it as a "default" instance, leading to a lot of non-tankies registering there and finding themselves promptly banned for anti-China talk (and there are still lots of non-tankies there so you can't just block them all indiscriminately)
Honestly, based on early interactions I'll probably have to avoid political conversations if I can help it since even people I agree with ideologically seem to irritate the shit out of me. Not all of them, obviously. But enough to have clocked avoiding engaging with certain groups already. I'll just have to know it when I see it.
Awwww shit, here we go again
Perfect! Nothing brings more attention than drama. 🤣
