Never have I seen someone from lemmy.ml be more annoying than the people who complain about lemmy.ml

Most tankies are indistinguishable from normal people if you don't talk about politics.

It's almost like just about everyone is normal people.

You’re not normal if you’re not weird.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

So the normal ones are weird? And the weird ones are normal? Does the transitive property come into play here?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I used to know someone who said “if you’re not weird, you’re not normal”. I think probably everyone is weird in their own way.

I've got a comment removed for using the term "tankie triade" on .ml. There are reasons to be annoyed

Their news, or world news, I forget exactly, has been the first long time subscribed comm I finally ditched. Anything posted there with a relation to the USA is going to inevitably devolve into 'western imperialism', 'dems evil', 'china supreme' etc. With any dissenting commentary being at best piled on to say how wrong it is, and just as likely deleted.

I’ve seen a lot of people from .ml who advocate historical revisionism regarding Chinese and Soviet crimes.
