Your community for poking fun at the bullshit tankies say and spread.
Rules:
No tankie talking points. That includes the classics (denial of genocide of Uyghurs, denial of ML dictator's crimes, campism, calling everyone you disagree with a liberal or CIA etc.) and general shit opinions (general genocide denial, antisemitism, racism, queerphobia, etc.)
MLs are not communists. They never actually worked towards it and there are some who don't even define it as a stateless, classless, egalitarian society. So MLs shouldn't be called communists in the first place. Calling hating MLs anticommunism will probably expose you as either a tankie or a right winger, both of which aren't welcome here.
Right-wingers, fash, nazis, nazbols etc. are not welcome! Right wing talking points (such as anti-woke, anti-queer, speaking favorably of far right figures, being anti-antifa etc.) will get you banned pretty quickly.
Please respect people's pronouns. Deliberately misgendering people repeatedly is going to lead you to have issues with the mods. Defending misgendering will get you banned.
No brigading. People caught brigading in this comm will be banned. Also we oppose brigading in other comms. Keep the discussions and stuff within the comm.
On near-east topics: Nakba is an established fact. The (ongoing) Palestinian genocide is a fact. Israel commits crimes against Palestinians. No anti-Arab (such as Palestinians and Druze) sentiments allowed (it falls under racism anyways). In regards to Israel, do not dehumanize civilians. Saying shit like "there are no civilians in Israel/Palestine" will get you permabanned.
Be kind to one another. Try to deescalate any fights.
Content guidance:
Anti-ML memes, screenshots and humor are allowed.
For general discussion threads please ask.
If there is demand, we can do a open discussion thread once a month. But it will get locked if in escalates into a dumpster fire.
Any voting encouragement on LSC is now consistently removed by an MLer on the mod team.
The days .world is safe from tankie censorship are over. Voting in the midterms is straightup the same as zionism.
And for some inexplicable reason the Fediverse seems to be bleeding MAU…
Native Americans were here first too. Times change. More non-tankies here now.
If tankies want to "excorcise" liberals from this platform, they are more than welcome to try. Judging by all the complaints it looks like they're already drowning them out of their subs/instances with their tankie tears.
But if you guys keep booting us you'll just end up like /r/conservative or /r/The_Donald. Pathetic little islands in a sea of liberal leaning, vote loving, democracy defending users.
