lmao, this is fucking hilarious
I can’t believe I’m saying this but… based elon?
The feddiverse as a whole might be soon flooded with people tho, prepare yourselves, they comin’

Oh, found a post by the admin of that instance, it’s from a week ago

its the default setting of every new instance to require approval, on my instance i dont require email verification so i thought i could at least have people write something to let me know they’re human. in the end no one uses my instance so I just opened it up, maybe after some registrations ill make it an application again.

Boy oh boy, @gaylord you’re in for a fun time there, bud
48k users right now btw, he’s getting a lot of bots

And my conspiratorial side makes me think that they’re not here by accident

Kbin just sounds cooler, dude.
I mean, lemmy - that’s just lame with extra steps. Eww. Yuck. Yucky. Not cool. Actual cringe, tbh. 🤢
Kbin. That’s like cool-beans, dude. Actually rad. And based. 😎
Who doesn’t want to be cool? I tell you, nerds, that’s who. Do you want to be a nerd? Didn’t think so.
Checkmate. Try proving me wrong (pro-tip: you can’t)

Holy shit! Had no idea! Thanks, mate.
Common EU W

EU should hurry up with their federation laws.

What do you mean?

instructed their members who were also members of the SRA to do everything they could to push out the anarchists and demsocs

HA. At least they’re keeping it historically consistent.
Hurr durr muh leftist unity, hurr durr.

Thanks for the explanation, I appreciate it!

A better version of the SRA that hasn’t been taken over by the PSL

Someone explain please, I’m curious.

Wow.

If you ask a liberal what “tankie” means you will get a response that sounds a lot like if you ask a conservative what “woke” means. The two main developers are communists, trying to collectivize social media. It is very shocking. 🙄

Opening with challenging the definition of “tankie” without knowing or asking on what definition I operate on is quite the red flag. Also the condescension instantly put me in defensive mode.

Dessalines has a collection of essays he’s written on Github.

Thank you for the links, now after seeing that individual’s defense and apologia of the genocidal soviet empire I’m more than convinced that is not the place for me.
Just from a cursory glance alone his attitude is vehemently imperialistic, not too different from what I’ve experienced from many privileged westerners.
Whether his heart is or is not in the right place, that’s another matter. But after a year and a half of excruciatingly depressing takes from western leftists of all kinds, I’m not going to surround myself with people that I disagree most, I value my mental health more than that.

Thanks again!

I’ve seen repeated accusations that lemmy is tankie/red-fash, especially when it comes to those that control it - mods/admins/w/e. How true is this?
