Welcome ex-Redditors!

Methinks there might be a culture war/defederation covert campaign being done by more right or even just regular liberal users.
That or I'm being paranoid.

"/c/" doesn't tell us much. I assume you mean [email protected]? Try
-
From what I can tell, this tankie stuff is bullshit. In the years I've been here, I've seen close to zero 'tankie' content from any of these supposedly tankie instances. There's like maybe one or two people on those instances who might fit the description if you search for them. Meanwhile, literally every day there are posts spitting on these supposed tankie instances. (And actually, it's again a very small number of people complaining - but they put their crap into cute memes to get traction).
I don't like the idea of shouting slurs at entire instances. In my view, if you hate those instances so much - just block them. Problem solved. No need to spew hate all over lemmy.
Try criticizing .ml on an .ml sub and you'll start to taste the authoritarianism
-
Imma be honest, I don't think .ml belongs on there. Their users can be pretty cool.

I meant that one, my bad

If I were criticizing various nations more than the U.S., I wouldn't shame people for "authoritarian bootlicking". Glass houses and all that.

Again, despite claims to the contrary, tankie for most people means "anything left of the Democrats, or willingness to break with US foreign policy."

And critically, not just since Trump. As soon as the ink dried on the Nazi surrender, the US and OSS/CIA armed and funded every fascist they could find since fascists are the most dedicated anti-communists.

Welcome

Got my account and started reading and posting today, and you're right, they are nice people. I had somehow mixed up Beehaw and Hexbear in my head. Big mistake.
I may end up moving over there as primary just because I'm so tired of the trolls myself.
-
Yiffit was never federated with any of them, none of them federate with porn instances.

.ml is a cesspool

who love strawmen
like “narwhal bacon”

Yay, I'm glad you like it there! It's definitely more slow moving than the rest of Lemmy, but I like their weekly community chats and stuff. Also a killer gardening community.
-
Welcome! I am new too. Still getting adjusted to the federations and the "way" things are here.
-
Get the app: sync for Lemmy! It's amazing

Them not federating with another instance doesn't stop other instances seeing their content. It only stops their instance seeing the blocked instance's content.

Like that guy with the Buckies profile pic? lol I see him everywhere
