What is a tankie?
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical.
Indeed, but this is more about admins banning users from the entire instance because they don't share the same political views.
That's fair. I appreciate that every instance host has the right to moderate their community any way they want however moderation rules should be clear and consistent. Banning people for posting respectful criticism of communism is inconsistent with the rules of lemmy.ml
.world does this all the time though, especially if you criticize Israel or Biden (or other CIA projects)
This would also be deeply problematic. I’ve seen it posted elsewhere, and asked the same thing:
Can you back this assertion up with any proof?
Edit: they can’t, they’re just insulting people with disabilities and don’t like they got called for it.
Yeah, I've had comments deleted and have seen others deleted that criticized Israel or that criticized Biden's support of Israel.
So my own eyes have shown me that this is true. My own eyes have also shown me that .world is run by mods who push an agenda that conforms with the CIAs goals of domestic control over the US population. Which, if I wanted to read that midwit drivel, then I would've stayed on Reddit.
So you don’t have any proof?
Your comments get deleted because you seem to think autism is a derogatory to attack people with.
