To be expected considering just how bad r/196 was getting. I think despite being what seemed 50% trans (part of the reason I as a transperson was on there) the community flocked to constantly defend vaush to the point I started realizing the community was universally starting to either have r/vaush overlap or r/tankjerk overlap very commonly.
After all the "kick tankies out of r/196" did come up months back on r/196. The rapidly growing amount of Vaushites(muh anarcho-natoism) and fascists blatantly joining without protest started positioning the well so bad I started avoiding it. They're going down the slippery sloop so fast I expect them to defederate by July, shame as it could of brought back what r/196 used to be before the brainrot.
they have said anyone from Lemmygrad is on their last chance already, no warning, no comment removal just a ban. I feel like it is overly harsh, but I also knew nothing about the reddit comunity it came from
Its reddit community used to be a more accepting leftist space with a lot of queer humor. But over time the Libs slowly got worse. I remember when I first joined it felt like it was run by actual leftists (mostly baby leftists and anarkiddies but still) The first "kick tankies of of r/196" wasn't as well received as this one..
So when Ukraine war broke out they got... So much worse. I have no hope for the instance tbh and am glad they banned me, if only for 3 days as apparently I'm only a borderline tankie lmao. We have our own 196 which is much better tbh.~~___~~
