I know Americans are gonna need them since the empire is coming home with full force, for instance. Without them, without âradicalsâ like those in .ml, the folks will just be fed a new narrative to curtail their cognitive dissonance (itâs the most imperceptible of buzzes for the least cerebral among us but itâs still there) and theyâll eat it up because thatâs all theyâre exposed to. So, no, they should be connected, for the sake of exposure. Itâs important too for those more .ml-coded to read, post and quickly check the downvote/upvote ratio in .world just like it was/is on big subreddits to get a feel of what the average literate Westerner, who at least considers discussion important (better than your average American, for instance), is thinking/has been fed recently.
By that âlogicâ everyone needs a taste of white supremacy, Christian nationalism, Nazis, and so on.
Certain opinions arenât worth giving any consideration to because theyâre so stupidly, pig-headedly wrong. The street corner preacher frothing at the mouth over LGBTQ people is one, .ml and the former hexbear (worldâs smallest violin plays a sad song for their passing) instances being prime examples.
Did you just compare anti-imperialist âcontentâ to pro-Nazi stuff? Anyway, no, itâs unethical to be pro-Western imperialism, right is evidently different from wrong, and I agree that not every uttering deserves ears but trust me that every person thatâs been simmering in pro-war, anti-non white lives (whether it be anti-communist or islamophobic stuff, it just serves to alienate your fellow human being) propaganda since before they came out of the womb only know the wrong side of things and need to at least see some memes and be triggered into self-examination!

Lol, Tankies just simp for authoritarian regimes like Russia and NK that claim to be communistic.
If you want to pull people to your political side, then you can do so without relying on misinformation and conspiracy theories. Which is unfortunately not what the admins of .ml have chosen to do.

Silly comes in different shapes, but the imperial narrative will almost always be untrue and always serve immoral interests!

I think they are saying itâs important that ML people see more nuanced takes. Though without a coherent paragraph structure itâs difficult to tell.

The entire fucking issue is that the tankies ban nuanced takes at the drop of a hat.
Maalus@lemmy.world â¨15⊠â¨hours⊠ago
Theyâre not here to see âmore nuanced takesâ nor they care about them. They are here to brigade posts, spread propaganda and make any discussion a pain. You canât even imagine how often tankies tried to tell me the history of my country is fake and they know the ultimate truth about it all, way better than the people who actually lived that history.

Iâm not agreeing with them. Iâm just trying to do a translation
