oh tankies aren’t communists. they don’t actually care about any of that.

nah, they only care about destroying america

Edit: Almost forgot. Fuck the CCP

you are now banned from lemmy.ml

they don’t care about communism in the slightest.

only the death of america

oh to be so confused

the fuck?

dude, they’re attending remembrance services

I totally understand the reasoning behind thinking it’s state actors or certain members being shills–But there’s not much to gain for governments to shill in niche, extremist communities. Why shill your loyal followers when they parrot everything already? Instead, it’s much more effective to use large, mainstream social media websites, like Twitter, Reddit or Facebook, just check out anything politically trending to see the shills and contrast them with these users.

It is true, these small communities do swallow up state propaganda without much thought, but they aren’t shills. Most are just lonely people who hate everything and themselves.

Nah, lemmygrad is 100 percent American.

Check out this comment for some more information.

No why would they do that

yeah

Nah the devs carry out admin work too (which is why lemmy development is so damn slow). You can check on their matrix channels.

The lemmy.ml admins are the developers, yeah.

The third guy has a sensible idea.

Yeah, though that’s going to be insanely costly for the government. Best solution is offering a cheap, readily available public version and then the premium services.

The ‘ban factory farms’ guy has a good idea.

It is! But ironically, animals are and have always been treated the worst in communist states.

The ‘ban cars’ crowd I sorta agree with. Cars should only be used in urban areas, where public transit is not viable.

You mean rural?

thanks for comparing this community to functional healthcare and breakthroughs in medicine! (:

Seriously though, what do you want this community to do exactly?

sources include this youtube video I found and this comment on reddit

The instance doesn’t need to be blocked when it defederates itself with the rest of the fediverse. Regardless, it’s important to highlight the content that the Lemmy Developers are happy with

im so fucking confused. If you don’t wanna see the content of this community, you are free to block it from your feed so it doesn’t show up.

what? I just said if you dislike the content of a community, you can block it, lol

yes that is how federation works. You can block the community by clicking on the big red “Block Community”

Both of these instances have already defederated themselves. You’re on a community that is dedicated to highlighting hate-speech and tankie behaviour.

and yes, they have tried to impose them on other instances. Even the Developers themselves tried to force their beliefs until the developers of Kbin told them off.
