95·3 hours agoI’m not against socialism/communism, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’d be happy to see the fall of capitalism in my lifetime.
Just not replacing it with just another flavor of authoritarianism, which is what the Tankies push which is what the current regimes of China and Russia are
Blocking doesn’t solve the problem of the misinformation, Russian/Chinese propaganda, genocide denialism and human rights abuse denials they push
And also, I’m not making a decision for anyone

What’s the point when every link I provide that isn’t tankieblog.blogspot.com will undoubtedly be written off as “CIA/Western/FBI Propaganda”
Because that’s what happens every time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_China
Censorship in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is mandated by the country’s ruling party, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It is one of the strictest censorship regimes in the world. The government censors content for mainly political reasons, such as curtailing political opposition, and censoring events unfavorable to the CCP, such as the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre, pro-democracy movements in China, the persecution of Uyghurs in China, human rights in Tibet, Falun Gong, pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, and aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since Xi Jinping became the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (de facto paramount leader) in 2012, censorship has been “significantly stepped up”.
Ig Wikipedia is now “propaganda” lmao
Maybe someday, .world is 2/3rds of the way there!
You could also check out !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
But you’ll need to look at it off the .ml instance because .ml blocks that comm specifically (talk about censorship lmao)
Everyone already shits on the US including us Americans.
It’s far worse to shit on the US/West and simultaneously turn a blind eye to the atrocities of China or Russia
Do .ml Tankies hate the French now too?
If just one person says your instance is a Tankie instance, it’s just a one off. If everyone says/agrees your instance is a Tankie instance, it might just be a Tankie instance.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical. It is commonly used by anti-authoritarian leftists, including anarchists, libertarian socialists, left communists, democratic socialists, and reformists to criticise Leninism, although the term has seen increasing use by liberal and right‐wing factions as well.

and at worst they’re spicy.
Did not realize looking the other way on human rights abuses or denying genocides of China/Russia was just “a little spicy”

Um no, most don’t want just more authoritarianism. Tankies are genocide deniers or look the other way on the many human rights abuses whenever the government doing it is China or Russia.

I for one wouldn’t mind seeing the fall of capitalism in my lifetime, but not to replace it with just another flavor of authoritarianism.

Yeah just what we need, a whole bunch of people sticking their head in the sand so when new people try it leaving Reddit they can see all those Tankie comments unopposed and go “F this place, it’s just Voat 2.0”
