some people want to post here but are repelled by "fuck tankies?"

good.

that is the intended functionality of the banner.

Generally speaking, people offended by this are either:

  • libs that dont understand the distinction between tankie and communist or have been misinformed by tankies on what its supposed to mean, but are pro communism(wierd combination?)

  • the "CCCP did nothing wrong" people

maybe having something leftist in the banner or some place like that could help the former, but I wouldnt remove the message, as it acts as a soft filter for the latter.

Fuck anyone who works for the Dept of Naval Intelligence or the FBI. Fuck their social media interns, even. Anyone who interferes with the internet to filter out left-wing political content is scum.

If that offends you more than "fuck tankies," you have the same problem but worse.

You're a human or a fed. Are we on the same page? If not, that'd be odd, since this is just a trans-friendly forum for harmless shitposting, right? There shouldn't be any feds here.

I dont understand what this means. What does the dept of naval intelligence have to do with this post on lemmy.blahaj.zone

Certain social media ops/tracking programs are run by the DNI. Not saying they'd be on this site but the mods seem really pesky about condemning Western federal agencies so this is a test, basically. If "Tankies" in their head are more threatening than the FBI in real life, they have something to answer to

How about fuck anyone who works for the Chinese disinformation and propaganda arm. Fuck anyone who censors their citizen’s internet. Fuck anyone who is actively committing genocide against minorities within their country.

Works both ways!

Believe it or not but

  • You can hate more than one country at a time
  • You can hate the country you were born in

Who'd a thunk it?

Please go ahead and compare anything to what is happening to the Uighur people.
