    Do you have any examples of tankie discourse outside of grad/hexbear/ml communities?

      Mostly in political/news subs. If you avoid politics/news it’s much less noticeable.

      It tends to be relatively subtle (albeit after seeing it several times you do notice a pattern). Statements implying Chinese interactions with foreign countries are purely “for a better world”. Low key, roundabout methods of supporting russian imperialism (“well it’s actually NATO that’s at fault”). That sort of thing.

      FWIW, when/if the threadiverse gets more users (say at least 250K+ MAUs stable), this sort of stuff will be diluted to be less noticeable.
