Hi all, thank you for reading my post. modlod link
Clocks got banned first after suggesting that the OP try to be a genuine friend and try to find some common cause in real life rather than alienating people over abstract geopolitical factionalism:
I raised the issue that censoring earnest advice as ‘tankie apologia’ and preemtively writing off any common cause/ isolating people is no way to win people over either as friends or comrades.
I then got banned for this one, for continuing to find ‘the tankie triad’ extremely silly:
yeah that’s the context, I was just laughing because:
- only Lemmy users with an axe to grind call them that
- it sounds really silly, like they’re a nemesis to dr venture.
- I’m supposed to be the melodramatic one yet every day I get one-upped 😔

I’m not here to tell them how to run their comm, my position is that this is way more draconian than anything I’ve run into in any of ‘the tankie triad’. The same groups of people loudly complaining about censorship on ‘tankie’ run instances don’t seem to have a problem enforcing vague/arbitrary vibes based censorship in their spaces.
That is not what they said, you fucking liar. They very clearly said they had a “no authoritarianism” rule. The “no dissent” bullshit was @[email protected] stupidity. At no point did they ban dissent, nor did they say they were.
You idiots are making up lies to argue against just because you got your little tankie feelings hurt.
why are you so hysterical about this? everyone is talking about this normally and you come in raging lol its kinda funny ngl
That’s wild, because like most people I assumed .world Lemmings didn’t have a sense of humor. I thought you were all too busy defending CEOs and telling us how we need to hug it out with nazis to properly enjoy something.
Their exact words are still there, so there would be no point in lying about it. The exchange reads:
It’s may just be a joke, but it is clearly equating authoritarianism and dissent. That is all I was commenting on. I don’t care about the fate of Diva or the banning of tankies. I just thought this back and forth was funny and ironic. I hope you get the chance to relax this weekend.
