After someone mentioned me without tagging me on the Return2Ozma thread drama, I decided to Lemmy search my name to see what else I was missing out on. I didn’t realize I was so popular with the “People who defend tankies” demographic of Lemmy! Apparently, I’m a brainrotted liberal debate lord (simultanously, without any beliefs) who hates every leftist movement in existence, is a wedge between liberals and leftists, and sees imaginary tankies everywhere.
I mean, obviously, since I’ve made a whole 9 posts about them, including posts on “MeanwhileOnGrad” (5 if you exclude MeanwhileOnGrad and TankieJerk), over my past year on the Fediverse (out of ~1,570 total posts). Clearly, if it wasn’t for me, the leftists would have finally joined hands with the liberals to sing kumbaya together.
That’s a lot of work I have to put in when all I want to do is browse politics and post history minutiae without having to worry about people advocating genocide or fascism, but I wouldn’t want to disappoint any of them!
Also, apparently they think I’m Yeetpics? Which is a strange connection to make, considering our writing styles are… very different.
EDIT: And Joe Biden’s strongest warrior! Wow!
If it makes you feel any better, I have no fucking clue who you are.
They hate us because they anus.
At least they don’t misgender you, which is nice.
They mis-theorize everyfuckingone who doesn’t repeat back their own opinions adnauseum.
Then they label you an enemy based on their assumption of your beliefs.
Tell a tankie not to incite nuclear violence and give it a spin lmao.
I don’t accept any of those people as left, much less “ultra left”. They’re rossian conservatives larping as leftists, at best
I can’t agree, they are authoritarian yes but they advocate for collectivist policies, and I’ve met people like them IRL so I know they are indeed real.
Collectivist, until people they don’t like show up at the table.
Their advocacy for collectivist policies is the larping; they spend most of their energy pushing for fascism
