Tankies, they're tankies, there's nothing wrong with the theory of communism. What makes a Tankie, is the support of Authoritarian regimes and turning a blind eye to genocides and many other human rights violations when committed by said regimes
And also, there's nothing Tankie about Lemmy itself. It's just computer code that is a Reddit-like link aggregator. It falls under separating the art from the artist. And because it's open source, there's no concern of financially supporting it either from its use (unless you make an explicit choice to donate)
That's exactly what liberals of Lemmy do though.
When was the last time you spoke against Zelensky's regime, that literally turned my country into a concentration camp that people cannot leave and are kidnapped off the streets (and even fucking hospitals!) in front of their crying wives/mothers, to be sent into the meatgrinder and never be seen again?
That's a rhetorical question, of course you never did (and those who do, including me, are paid Russian shills, tankies or just bots). Because for a liberal, it's never "authoritarianism bad" or "Nazism bad" or "human rights violations bad" or anything like this - it's only bad when the other side is doing it. When "the good guys" are doing it, it's not just totally acceptable, the guy is a hero.
War surely is cruel isn't it.
The only thing more cruel than war is liberals.
Nothing is more cruel than war
Liberals are literally more cruel than war.
A person that has even a slightest bit of compassion/empathy recognizes how bad war is and helps people flee the affected areas, ensures there are minimal casualties, supports ending the war.
Liberals have no compassion, no emapthy, they only pursue their goals no matter the human suffering. They support a dictator that stops people from fleeing the country, resulting in thousands of deaths and suffering people. They support people being kidnapped from the streets, homes and hospitals (the same people that they trapped there), and sent into the meatgrinder, resulting in hundreds of thousands of deaths. They would not mind the war going on until the very last Ukrainian is dead. They have no red lines.
Liberals make an already awful thing a level of magnitude worse. Liberals are worse than war.
