It does not matter how calm or reasonable the comment is, if it’s deemed to be in dissent of the Tankie mindset it’s removed and you’re banned

For context this next one might have been (have confirmed with Vitaly) was a comment to https://lemmy.world/post/26045579 (Crossposted version, original that was on .ml memes comm was removed as well so I can’t pull up the original to pair the modlog entry to the post like I did for the first 2 screenshots)

        So what’s the rule one? Why I was banned?

          Officially it’s “bigotry”, unofficially it’s their catch-all for anything they don’t like. Criticism of Russia, China etc

            Thanks for explaining, do you think I should ban them? The whole instance I mean

              Ill leave that up to you, if you want to help be part of the opposition to the tankies, calling out their BS and stuff, or at least just be another downvote to their shit takes I wouldn’t.

              If the bigger instances won’t defed from the remaining of the Tankie Triad (.ml in this case hex and grad are commonly defed’d from already) I think it’s important to at least ensure that new users can see that there is loud opposition on lemmy to their Authoritarian ideologies and that Lemmy != A bunch of tankies

                I find it really surprising that there are a lot of ppl with authoritarian ideologies on one of the most free platform that is controlled by normal people and not some corporation. I’m not gonna block them then, I want ppl to know that lemmy is not only about communist propoganda
