The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of “left solidarity”

      That “smooth brained” shit also should fall under ableism honestly

      @[email protected] See this is the kind of thing we are talking about. This sort of anti-communist rhetoric invites reactionaries.

      I am also trying really hard to remain civil here and advocating that our users do so as well but when you have reactionary assholes saying “fuck communism” and using ableist slurs you should reflect on your whole “anti-tankie” stance.

      And I say this as an anarchist.

          And we have a stance against that and I remove such comments where I can. You literally said fuck communists and then resorted to ableist slurs. You’re clearly some sort of crypto fascist.

          Let this be a lesson to the moderation team here. When you allow this sort of bigotry you invariably get these sort of people weaponizing rules against “tankies” to shield themselves while being outspoken bigots.

                People like you are why actual communists can’t get anything done. Too interested in trolling and not actually make any convincing arguments to anybody outside of your in group. It’s honestly pathetic, on the first day of not getting defedded you think your best tactic to change hearts and minds would be acting like this. Fuckin tankies

                  You think I give a fuck about federation? Do you know what is going to happen if an instance as active as hexbear gets defederated for being falsely accused of being fascists?

                  I am trying to help you fuckers because I cannot do anything about what will probably happen if it gets defederated. I can’t stop people from making alts here to ridicule assholes like you. Nor would I.

                    Haha your cute, if I didn’t want to argue I would have just reported and moved on. But go off king, I’ve never been afraid of dipshits trying to ridicule, they’ve tried all their lives. You act like the votes mean literally anything, but you’re getting worked up about being called tankies. That’s honestly way too fucking telling. And honestly, if tankies is a slur, the way you use lib absolutely is as well. You use lib to describe people you don’t agree with, why can’t I use tankie? Hell you called me a crypto fascist, you just came here to insult, what the fuck do I care about what you think?

                  “smoothbrain”

                  Also calm down, rage typing in all caps in defense of your bigotry isn’t really helping your case.

                    I never called you that though, I literally used it in the same you did in the comment above. Again, the whole reading comprehension thing.
