Welcome ex-Redditors!

You're not looking forward to a beachfront vacation, sleeping over the skeletons of dead little kids that we all helped pay to murder? What's wrong with you?
-
That's what I love about lemmy. A little curating of your feed and dropping the occasional abhorrent 'human' into the blocklist makes this a pretty nice place.

everyone keeps telling me my instance is full of tankies but im not seeing it. i when i made my account this was the only instance.
-
I see calling people "tankies" is the "woke" of the Fediverse.
-
Remember, it's not authoritarian or bootlicking if it's Israel or the US

Nah, they're authoritarian genocide deniers.
The opposite of woke.

I think there's an instance on .ml that has everyone in a tizzy. I myself haven't had any issue with .ml specifically. Lot of 'mens rights' bigots from .ee though, not sure why that is.
-
Everyone know those rules don't apply to the instances with opinions outside of the US state department's approved overton window.

Not us 🫶 I enjoy the Beehaw communities I subscribe to

I've met people in reality who feel the same way as you, and I wanted to ask you something:
Wonder if our media that is largely Republican controlled and owned by Western billionaires could maybe have some anti-CCP bias
Why does that mean that China is good? Like I understand that specific things western media says could be wrong, but we have a hell of a lot of proof about what they've done. So what I don't get is, sure media is owned by billionaires and corrupt, but why does that mean that the exact opposite is what's true? Stalin/Nazi Germany and Hitler/Germany hated each other, constantly lied about each other, but that never meant that either of them were 'good.' So why does it apply here?

Lemmy.ml is the original instance and the dev instance. I joined it because there was literally no alternative at the time. It's pretty annoying being called a tankie left and right because of this
-
It does, but you're really tripping if you don't think the CCP commits egregious human rights abuses.
-
Mao is a Maoist, and the CCP claim to be 'the sole heir and successor to Joseph Stalin concerning the correct interpretation of Marxism–Leninism and the ideological leader of world communism,' and I think (hope?) we can agree that Stalinism is not communism.
-
What's it liking having even /c/conservative think you're a right-wing nutjob? Do you think the entire world is a leftist conspiracy out to get you, personally?

I mean, before Methler's Operation Barbarossa, they were happily dividing the world up between themselves.

Beehaw is like the Elks Lodge of the Lemmyverse. From the outside they look exclusive, mysterious, and enticing. Inside, there's just a few drunk guys singing karaoke.
At least that's my assumption. They wouldn't let me in because I refused to write a paragraph about why I wanted to join an instance that I knew virtually nothing about. Even the Elks Lodge wasn't that picky.
-
Yes, welcome redditors to .world, which is trying to model itself as reddit 2.
-
If you want nothing farther left than drumpf memes, and also like being a little bit bigoted towards Muslims, then Lemmy.world is gonna be a nice cozy home for you.
-
It's pretty insane that choosing the default instance is seen as being indicative of your politics

Most conservative is just random Lemmy users finding it.
And no. Lemmy is a itty bitty part of the world. Why would I think it's a world-wide leftist conspiracy?
