Some will cheer, some will be mildly disappointed. But I’m out, I think.

    My issue with some, but not all, of them is I tend to run into tankies posing as libertarians. Which is just as bad if not a little worse because many are just confused individuals.

    But of a generalization, but it unsettlingly common.

      Tankies and libertarians are both conservatives. Different circus - same clowns. They have a chosen ingroup that’s righteous and correct and handsome, and any argument-shaped sentences are just shuffling cards to justify that mandatory conclusion. Things are good because they do them.

      To be honest I have not noticed many of either on SJW. Tankies aplenty on ML, an undercurrent on dbzer0, the rare dingus on anarchist.nexus. Libertarians? There’s two guys who don’t post anymore. I think they first came here for the same reason I did - overbearing admins on other instances.

      Unless you’re thinking of Universal Monk, but that motherfucker is an infectious disease.

        Oh actually maybe I was thinking of dbzer0 instance. I just remembered it was a popular one with an odd name. Maybe I got them mixed up. I try not to follow the fediverse drama shit.

      What’s another good instance that isn’t Lemmy and backed by tankies?

      Ironically that sentiment is precisely what has driven these developments. The fact that it’s now even causing the user who runs MWOG this kind of grief is just laying it on thick.

        Not wanting to bootlick for North fucking Korea, like you and the Lemmy devs do, is what drove the vote limit?

        I won’t miss the fascists on here, that’s for sure.

          Look, this level of hate’s one-sided here so I won’t engage this any further in your farewell thread.

          I hope there’s a silver lining to this and you’ll find it restorative. The reply guy life beckons you.

            lmao

            Considering your constant participation in the usual circlejerks, like Hexbear’s slop threads, about me, specifically, and your constant whingeing about MWOG being run by Nazis?

            The usual blatant bullshit from you.
