So lemmy.world is tankie for being federated with ML?
No, because lemmy.world regularly pushes back against Tankies. Db0 defends them, and even supports their views, such as genocide denialism.
It really depends who you’re talking about really.

I’ve posted plenty of anti-tankie memes in !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com and got comments of support from dbzer0 himself.

Lemmy world spent the last two years manufacturing consent for a genocide
