That was the nudge I needed to make an account over here. I joined midwest.social because it was an explicitly leftist server. I would have been very sad to lose access to the good posts here now that I know about them, and honestly I'm pretty baffled at the number of users native to that instance who are bitching about you all in that thread.

Edit: thank you all so much for the warm welcome ❤️

welcome to the evil site of tankies, hope you enjoy your stay

I would say I'm from the true tankie instance but the libs are giving our crown to hexbear cri

Lemmygrad is a well drilled column of tanks with a shared mission. Hexbear is a constantly snowballing militia of half-mad generals, shellshocked tank commanders, and eager young comrades who heard them speak - constantly firing in all directions, but always outward.

The liberal craves order, predictability, even when facing it as their enemy. Hexbear is relentless and utterly unpredictable.

"Tankie" is when you make libs uncomfortable so it's not even about politics, we're just ravenously online

If you haven't gotten a welcome glad to have you here.

It's a little chaotic, there are struggle sessions, but so long as people come with actually open minds it's generally incredibly friendly here.

I also joined midwest.social because they claimed to be an explicitly leftist instance. It would be extremely disappointing if they defederate.

[–] ImOnADiet@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Hey just letting you know midwest.social does defederate lemmygrad
