    I mean… A lot of Lemmy users blindly clap for dictatorial populists because they claim to be from the left, it’s hard to take this as an upgraded site when the only thing you read about your country is government propaganda.

      The tankies aren’t in the majority, though that’s what they’d like people to believe, they’re just very very loud

      And the bulk of them can be taken care of by blocking the Tankie Triad of .ml, grad and hex

        My instance has defederated those 3, I still see accounts from different instances making comments defending the propaganda, downvoting those who say otherwise and crossposting from ml or hex.
        Blocking and defederating is basically useless, it helps, but doesn’t do what it should (completely block posts from those instances).

          Fr lol, the one thing that did work was being site-banned from .ml, so for like 2 months I was able to comment and post without any interaction from .ml users

          Then davel must have figured that out because the other day they un-site-banned me just after I posted my meme so that they could brigade my post and then manually blocked me from each individual comm instead LMAO
