This is why some don’t see the problem with .ml, they’re way more subtle. And to those I say look:
This comment was removed by a .ml mod in that thread and the user banned:
And yet, another comment from a .ml user referencing .world instead, but essentially says the same thing as @Fizz@lemmy.nzs comment is allowed to stay up just fine for hours.
Why was that not removed? Where is their ban?
Just .ml Tankie things ig
Infinite? Nah. I just know the default state for every most online spaces is pretty mask off right wing. As an American government worker I have 90% cop brain interactions in meatspace too.
So the tankies, the few there are in a marginalized online space? Yeah, they don’t worry me one bit. They’re on par, if not almost refreshing, compared to any gaming lobby I have experienced for the last 30 years.
So I see what appears to be an outsized reaction to a really inconsequential group of people. The idea that one of their takes scares off a redditor or anyone else closer to the default is almost comical as a concern.
Ah, yes, nothing quite as refreshing as apologia for genocide because [checks notes] the genocide isn’t happening in your country.
As an American, let me reassure you of how very American a reaction that is. :)
“It’s hilarious that a site built by tankies and which has three of the major instances run by tankies who celebrate genocide might scare off anyone who isn’t a genocide supporter!”
Ha ha ha. Comical. Hilarious.
People have said the same thing about neo-nazis and white supremacists in the past and look who is running the country now.
