It's always so strange to me that we don't see the same bombastic support from the tankies over news like this, surely this is another genius move which underscores the futility of Western sanctions, right? Another 5d chess move to bring Ukraine to it's knees, or dismantle the petrodollar, surely? 🙃
You think the kids that sat at the back of the classroom, saying learning math is a waste of time because they'll never need to use it, can form an opinion on this? They see the words "interest rate" and decide this news is completely irrelevant because they can't understand it.
you are aware russia hasnt been socialist for decades right?
russia is a failed proto-fascist state.
Yes, they're aware. They're also aware that ML types will support Russia regardless, because no evil is too great so long as it even mildly inconveniences the West.
thats because we cant compare the evil of the west with russia.
further entrenching US power is really bad for everyone not on the west.
Seems pretty good for all of the neighbour-states of the other powers
But you guys are always making everything about the US, further entrenching US soft power.
we are criticizing it.
They aren’t different today than they were then
now thats just false
Government controlled oligarchary
failed proto-fascist state
The USSR was both of those, you can say it was socialist under Lenin if you want but it was just a corporation trying to run everything
Hard for them to respond after they were all banned from Lemmy.world. Really easy to be smug when you have no opposition lol.
In case people are unaware, limmy.world defederated from the two major Tanky instances (Lemmygrad for Russian supporters and Hexbear for Chinese supporters). I'm not really sure why the above comment is downvoted. It's basically correct, though using the wrong terms.
.ml is plenty tankie too.
.ml is much more general leftist than tankie imo. There's plenty of talkies on there, but also many non-tankies. Definitely still a much higher rate than irl tho.
Ml is communist and should be banned
Lmao
"Everything I don't like is woke tankie"
They're aware but they still foam at the mouth over imaginary enemies and will downvote anything that stands counter to their crusade.
Thanks for the background. I knew there was some defederation going on but didn’t realize it was so political. Somewhat disappointing tbh
Bro people is with the jews now, they provide more impactful videos
Are the tankies in the room with you right now?
This joke's getting as stale as the "attack helicopter" shit your alt-right counterparts say.
I'm sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Not on this instance since defederation, thankfully. Doesn’t mean they cease to exist
Defederation? What happened?
Lemmy.world defederated from hexbear and lemmygrad which are the two largest tankie instances. Defederation is essentially an instancewide ban. In practice this means that any users on Lemmy.world cannot see any posts, comments, or communities from either of those instances.
That explains the substantial improvement in my mood lately.
It happened quite a while ago, but I'm glad you're feeling better.
For those who want the full experience, lemm.ee is an alternative.

Yes, that was clear from your previous comment
Sad.
