.world has now moved onto banning people for calling out transphobia. It was bad when they banned users for calling out the Democrats' involvement with the genocide of Palestinians, but now they ban users for being "aggressive" with transphobes.

That's concerning... I don't follow instance drama, but if that's even half true I'll switch. Have a source that I can read?

You can check my mod log, there's an example.

Yea..... I am glad I have .world on my block list.

To be fair, sh.itjust.works' admin thinks Russia and China are pushing "gender ideology" to radicalize western youths against the US, and it's home to NCD and MWoG, 2 of the most right-wing communities on Lemmy.

Saying that the russians are the ones pushing "gender ideology" on the west is an absolutely senile opinion to hold. For years every russian news channel has been hollering that it's The West(TM) poisoning russian society with "LGBT propaganda". Did that guy really try to pull a "no u" on the entirety of russian state media?

What the actual fuck did I just read?

"I'm not a transphobe, but more people realising they're trans is a psyop by h o s t i l e g o v e r n m e n t s and trans people should sit quietly in the corner if they don't want to get hatecrimed."

I'm not "X" but, (insert the most vile thing people in group X usually say)

This is a stereotype that predates the internet.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 22 points 2 days ago

Just the standard affair for users of that comm, sadly.

You know it's gotten pretty bad when even the anarchist flag usernames are meming about how ridiculous the anti tankie attitude is.

True left unity is uniting against .world

I've been more people complaining about Tankies than anything actually based on what Tankies support. But I've seen plenty of shitlibs openly supporting for biogtry on .world

That's not really a thing neoliberals say...

They definitely complain about the tankies being a big part of the culture of Lemmy, and housing some of the biggest communities, but the statement in the comic isn't even remotely a thing neolibs or the .world demographic says

So this comic kinda just feels like a strange, confusing straw man...

I haven't been able to take the word "tankie" seriously in most cases since I asked that to someone on Reddit and they linked a meme praising anarchist Catalonia

Basically my thoughts are, if you give slight pushback to American talking points you get called a tankie. It's kind of annoying.

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 31 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Aside from conservatives, does anyone think the world is controlled by marxists, tankie or otherwise?

[–] hamid@vegantheoryclub.org 32 points 2 days ago (10 children)

The meme is about lemmy.world and American liberals are center-right conservatives so....
