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)

      Yup that’s usually how it goes on the .ml Tankie instance, unfortunately they tend to be more subtle and just remove comments so calls to defed from them are not as strong as it was for hex and grad.

      cancer of right wing trolls commenting freely and left wing comments being deleted

              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

        makes no sense.

          Ah, I see the confusion, my first 2 screenshots are of the post and then the paired modlog entry together

          The last screenshot of “Fuck Russia” is an independent third one, but because they (.ml mods) also removed the post I can’t pull up the original that was on the .ml meme comm any more, my link is to a crossposted version. Their comment was in reply to that meme.

          I edited the post to hopefully clarify that a bit more

    Rule 1, be civil. The mods over there use it when they disagree. It’s pretty sad.
