Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

No bigotry of any kind.
No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

I haven't had much issue with lemmy.ml tbh but I'm sure if I went looking I'd find something.

They delete comments in critical of the CCP. A couple days ago I corrected someone from there who was lying about something to make the US look bad. A comment said "per the CDC the rate in the US is X" and they misquoted and said it's ten times as high.

So I said "no it's x, look at the comment again." They deleted my comment and left the lie. They also deleted my follow up asking why it was deleted, as well as a bunch of other comments in the thread.

There's heavy censorship on lemmy.ml in favor of the CCP, I'd be surprised if they're not running it directly.
