You'd think that them having an absolute monarchy would be enough to make even tankies think twice.

    don't count on it. back before i switched instances i had to read hexbear users unironically praising china's "democratic dictatorship." highly recommend reading the wikipedia article on it; it's actually incredibly uninformative.

    edit, to be clear, it's a lot of describing the history of the phrase and vague ideas about the interactions between "the bourgeoisie, proletariat, and economy," with nothing at all about how it actually is implemented into the government and differs from a regular dictatorship in any way. probably because it doesn't. here

    Again hearing more about tankies but never encountering them. There must be some sort of cream for all that butt hurt you people have.

    lmao i wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that your instance defederated them. it's 90% of what they post

    Sounds like your instance is small as shit and other small communities dominate the conversation while the rest of us don't give a shit.

    You literally can not view Hexbear comments and posts because .World defederated from them. You replied asking where the tankies everyone is complaining about are and got your response. I don't even know what you're trying to say.

    Just so you know, they are posting here but you can't see their comments. Make an account in an instance that hasn't defederated with them (like lemm.ee) and you'll see their comments here.

    You don't get it. I don't care about hexbear because it's not as big a deal as of all lemmy makes it out to be. What I don't understand is if everyone has a problem with them why they choose to stay on an instance that doesn't defederate them. Obviously their instance will be smaller giving communities like hexbear an even larger voice. If users actually cared they would simply move to an instance where they don't have to encounter them. I'm not going to ee or some shit just to upset myself. Absolutely not going to one-on-one a bunch of ideologues, lol.

    Can you fucking understand it is so fucking annoying to see people complain constantly about tankies when it's a totally contrived conflict?

    Which to me, screams FSB and I've seen this propaganda in 1990s textbooks. It's all contrived to fabricate anti-communist sentiment.
