Russian intelligence is operating a systematic program to launder pro-Kremlin propaganda through private relationships between Russian operatives and unwitting US and western targets, according to newly declassified US intelligence.
If I have to read another comment about all the evil things tankies are defending without ever actually seeing a tankie on Lemmy I’m going to fucking lose my mind
Your instance has defederated from most of them. You won’t see them. It’s Lemmygrad and hexbear if you’re interested, but you’d have to go to a different instance to see them.
I’m not the person you asked but I’ll chime in since I share their sentiment.
The answer is no, not a single one. But that’s because I’m on lemmy.world and hexbear is defederated from this instance. All the shit talking I see about hexbear is actually making me more and more curious about checking it out to see if its true, because it might be that hexbear is just a reasonable leftist place that is strong and people talking shit about it are just right wingers or centrists who are trying to give hexbear a bad name.
I’ll probably check it out eventually when I’ve become curious enough due to people talking shit about it. It’s probably shit though, but I don’t know that.
I’m leftist, but not whatever hexbear or lemmygrad is. Have fun viewing the tanky comments. I sure did. To really get the full experience, express support for anything supported by western governments . You’ll get tons of long comments.
Yeah, I just checked it out and it’s not my cup of tea. It seems like I align with them on much of their critique on a lot of stuff but I’m not in support of their endorsements (like the CCP). I also don’t like those kinds of memes and find the blending of serious discussions and (what I think is) juvenile memes to be off putting.
I saw both the best (well argued and sourced) and worst (denial of Ughurs genocide and the state of Taiwan) comments on that instance.
I’m not going back there though, I’m too old and tiered to have those kinds of discussion in an environment that is hostile to opposing views on certain topics.
I’m pretty far left. They are not reasonable leftists, and quite possibly often not leftists at all. They defend authoritarianism constantly, as long as it is anti-western. If you argue against then on a point they won’t defend it, they’ll just attack you for something else. It’s almost always un-reasoned.

Do you not see heaps of hexbear comments?

Just get a vomit bag ready.

lemmy.world is defederated from hexbear, one of the largest tankie instances. many other major instances, like lemm.ee, are not.
Cool, so you won’t see them but trust us it’s there. Also if you talk about it we’ll downvote you.
This has been my general experience on Lemmy about the topic, seems like propaganda bots to me but maybe people are just really that stupid
Make an account on hexbear and then view the propaganda. Then come back and realize you are protected from that on Lemmy.world.
Even non-federated instances can be seen in their domain name. lemmygrad.ml and hexbear.net in these cases.
Stalin good actually
