They’re a useful idiot.

Those people aren’t acting in good faith no matter how much they say it.

That seems weird and also slightly on the abusive side, literally unbanning and rebanning just to make a post come through.

Yeah I agree, tankies are the worst. Fuck tankies!

world defederates grad. I did see one on the ml version of this post though.

That seems very accurate. I actually made a post on those right wing talking points specifically about Lemmy Dev @nutomic@lemmy.ml saying them to someone when they asked him about making a Lemmy plugin. It was really bad.

Holy shit. I never tried to sign up there so I didn’t even know that’s a thing. Jesus christ…

Well there was only one and they seem to have dropped it to work on Sublinks, in the end both died.

Yes, they are one of the few people who make big decisions when it comes to the development of Lemmy, and if they do it with bias they can cause problems for the rest of us. Especially since Sublinks is basically dead, no new development happening there. Lemmy is all we have right now, so we’re stuck with it until something else with a Lemmy-compatible DB comes along.

Tell me about them Pride parades and gender clinics in Russia. If I’m such a liar and these countries are such a bastion of LGBTQ rights tell me about how Russia affirms and protects LGBTQ people. So far it seems they’ve banned people from talking about it or displaying symbols of it, and they make it very hard to access treatment, plus there’s a fair amount of social stigma and violence.

Not entirely sure. I don’t know if the OP shared their original message.

It’s possible, though it’s also possible he’s referencing any instance of a trans woman winning at all. As is common for transphobes who wish to gatekeep trans people from sports.

Yeah, no way else one could fund a meme like this. There totally aren’t Free image editors out there that let you put text on a stock image.

You’re trying to argue that tankie doesn’t mean anything anymore. I’m saying it has a clearly defined definition, and you said you know what it is, acknowledging that that is what it means, therefore we’re on the same page. You never voiced your opinion on how you feel on tankies or what they do so I don’t know what your opinion is. Only your opinion on the definition.

Good, we’re all on the same page then?

Oooh look at you, trying to gatekeep the fediverse. You ain’t gettin rid of me that easily darling 💋

They also will happily assume my gender, one of their trolls just did while harassing me. Shows that they really don’t care about LGBTQ rights or acceptance.

It is being used as a descriptive term for people who support authoritarian regimes and frame themselves as left-leaning. Idc how libertarians use it.

Bold of you to assume I’m a boy… Don’t worry I’m used to it sweetie many people, especially brainwashed tankie trolls tend to not understand or respect Nonbinary identities.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml Got anything to say about this buddy? Don’t say it was taken out of context, there isn’t any context that makes this shit better, and your rant about trans women in sports and how you think institutionalized transphobia is “far fetched” wasn’t even on topic there.
