Yes it does. Wikipedia is a fairly neutral source. Middle school teachers will tell you that tertiary sources are a good way to start your research when you apparently have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm curious where a lot of those folks come from/what their backgrounds are. I assume like 50% are Russian bots, but of those who are real people, how'd they end up where they are in life/their opinions? I have a hard time wrapping my head around it.
Just reading and following the situation unfold. Whereas I can’t understand why someone is ok with the US lifting a ban on arming Nazis, but somehow I’m the asshole for just being aware of that.

Wikipedia is a fairly neutral source.
I mean, it's basically your bible, your one and only source for everything. Of course you think it's neutral. It's not, by the way, but you think it is.

That makes sense then, as it's obvious that neoliberals who only cite Wikipedia have no idea what they're talking about.
Oh wow, really digging deep for sources now.
Though even these sources basically confirm that it's a vaguely defended snarl word that can be leveled at anyone to the left of Bernie Sanders.

The irony of this is that not being a western bootlicker does automatically make you a Russian bootlicker, according to the people complaining about the "tankie triad".

There's only two sides: fascism vs humanity.
No need for phony racist divisions.

Yea who cares about those little human rights violations and genocides the CCP does along the way, just sweep those under the rug!
Imagine believing that CCP is a good representative of destroying capitalism. Typical lib. smh.

No state is good. It's actually not good to make up lines on a map and violently control people according to it. USA might be the worst.

There’s a shit ton of far-right and Sinophobic people on .world. They can’t abide anything that isn’t in line with whatever the CIA is saying.

I think it's either trolls or people who have realised how capitalism exploits them, but instead of becoming actual leftists, they just jumped to worshipping another oppressive system instead. Lemmy seems to be very US-centric, so I think the thought process for some has been:
- America bad
- America says [insert communist or 'communist' country here] bad
- Therefore [insert communist or 'communist' country here] good
So basically, not being able to understand nuance.

For example, this comment, i can only see one of the replies from the lemy.lol user.
Looking in to it deeper it seems like my assumption of lemmy.world being defederated is incorrect.
