Comment on [META] Never change, lemmy.ml
Eldritch@lemmy.world 10 months agoLol no wrong like confidently wrong. I’m further from a tankie than you are. In fact, it’s not possible to get much farther from tankie than someone like myself. I’m simply pointing out your ignorant bullshit. To which you can’t defend. I’d be incensed. But there’s no point. And I’m used to kiddies like yourself. Learning a new term like tanky and then just going crazy using it against everyone you don’t like.
I literally pointed out that they made their part of the GLOBAL famine worse. Promoting and listening to Trofim Lysenko’s crackpot theories. I’m not defending them. Just calling your bs strawman out. And again I reiterate letting people starve because it’s more profitable, is far more damning than ignorant leninists being stupid.

I see so many of these attitudes (whether correct or not. I’m not here to argue) and it just makes Lemmy an awful place to try and enjoy my free time.
You guys make reddit look palatable, let that sink in…

Should I call you a fascist and see how friendly you are? I don’t think you are. And I’m not going to. But when someone pulls stupid shit like that. It doesn’t actually contribute in anyway towards any sort of civil debate. And funny that your admonishing me and not him as well. Also, extra funny. Because that sort of shit is way worse on Reddit. Sooooooooo okay.

Yeah mate go nuts, I’ve been called plenty worse just today and been amused by it.
I am talking to both of you, your comment just happened to be the last in the chain.
I read the argument and thought “jesus fuck this place is basically unbearable”.
Honestly I’ve seen plenty worse on reddit too, but also SO much better. There are obviously loads more users so the worst is worse than the worst here, and the best is better than the best here. The point I’m making is that the average interaction here is worse than reddit, that famously circlejerky echo chamber hivemind. If I don’t fit the mould of a lemmy user it seems I’m a villain 80% of the time.
It really is no surprise users are dropping like flies at the moment and I feel I might be another one soon enough. Not that you care, I hope you have a nice day regardless, take care :) x

Like I said. I’m not here to defend leninists. I disagree with them vehemently. I disagree with all authoritarians vehemently. They absolutely tend to dive into adhominems immediately in many instances. Not always, but far too often. It’s kind of what you do when you can’t actually defend your viewpoints. Doesn’t really bother me though. I’m used to it from all over. As a social-libertarian I get called a fascist by many leninists, and a Leninist/tankie by fascists.
For myself though things have been far better over here than they ever were on Reddit. Perhaps that’s because of my more natural left lean? That was always something viewed as negative on a site like Reddit.
