Not being able to read isn’t much of a brag

Nor is it a strawman. I can link you to so many other users who say the same as you do, and how many times I try to explain to them that no, there’s no shilling on Lemmy.

It almost seems like satire… Until you realise they’ve been at this for 6 months and 300 comments

regardless the mods support this, so… yknow

Oh, this tired trite again.

ffs, they’re not fake. They ain’t bots. They ain’t federal agents. They ain’t foreign agents.

Not every single fucking idiot out there is fake, not every bigot is fake, not every extremist is fake. I’ve said it over and over and over again. Think logically.

Why would shills bother with Lemmy when they’re already extreme? Why water a floodplain, you know? They’re already converted; they don’t need any more shilling. Why wouldn’t they pull all their resources to mainstream social media like twitter or reddit, which has everyones attention? No international news or big influencers exist on Lemmy. It is a loss of resources.

People are just extreme. Being paranoid and calling everyone you don’t like a shill or a bot ignores the fact that some people just have extreme views. They ain’t bots, they ain’t shills, they’re just bigots in safespaces and afraid of discussion. Pretending that extremists naturally don’t exist makes you as paranoid as they are. This community has been called psyops, and myself a foreign agent more times than I can count. You’re not a shill. I’m not a shill. Don’t stoop to their level, basically.

(I’m not saying they aren’t affected by shills. The propaganda they willingly consume originates from psyops on different websites, but they aren’t the prime target)

Honestly I may make a new rule where you can’t call them fake; it’s handwaving their bigotry and extremism. They are real people.

You’d think more people would realise this

yes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NdE9CjkvTY Tankies have since disowned this event, but they still attended them lol

You can see hundreds of examples of this across this community, chief.

Their belief system is very simple

US bad

Does something hate the US?

Then they’re good!

Hamas? Which will slaughter these rich, gay, college kids? They’re good.

Russia? Which imprisons gays and is extremely corrupt? Sounds good to me.

China? Which again, hates gays and is very racist? They’re the good guys!

The idea is that police gaining more power over citizens further divides class.

Tankies are always unified with their beliefs.

until they start asking questions about said beliefs

He’s hopping on grain and jews and slamming his head into brickwalls

Syrian Men*

Ain’t no women allowed to celebrate in those streets

I saw some videos of people from Lebanon celebrating his death.

also saw some mourning his death.

beats me

isn’t that almost the entirety of the middle-east though?

Take note of the mineshaft comment. It’s a reference to the massacre of PoWs and suspected civilians.

You can argue it’s genocide if you want–It adds a nice palpable irony to their supposed anti-genocide stance.

I love seeing these little rants. Like guys, how are you meant to defeat capitalism in a revolution when you’re triggered by meat or rant about fucking sandwiches? It’s so weird!

i don’t think this communist takeover is gonna work :(

be nice to differing opinions that aren’t extreme

or vietnam or cuba, both actual fully communist states that will be very happy to accept some western comrades.

Seriously if I was an actual communist, I’d migrate to these countries immediately and start helping out the cause, both are very lovely places.

Tankies really do love imperialism. You’ll find they’re hypocrites of absolutely every view they hate.

/u/101@feddit.org

oh yeah you’re right. I dunno why it was removed then. Best DM mods as to why, or see where this post goes.

still, you should aim for higher credibility ratings.

Hexbear forces you to use pronouns when you make an account.

but yeah, people who obsess over pronouns need to go outside or get some self-esteem. I’ve been misgendered tons on this site, and I never bother correcting them because I do not care.
