Yeah, let’s wait until a reliable source like fox news or CNN confirms it.

And you agree that Germany is bad, right? Say the thing

Do you do this for your own country and its allies, insist that every issue with it is brought up every time it’s mentioned regardless of context, or do you reserve it for the countries that are your countries enemies?

Also, try anti-genocide protestors in Germany that freedom of expression is going fine, lol.

Good thing only Our Enemies use propoganda

Prove it.

Yes, correct, I’m glad I could change your mind

Extrajudicial murder has been bipartisan policy for decades.

They are: fascists.

Great to see American liberals turn into Tea Party era Republicans.

It matters a lot, actually; when you recognise Trumpian fascism as the product of domestic, structural, problems, you can make the kind of policy changes that reverse the slide into fascism. But when you blame all the countries problems on the sinister machinations of perfidious foreigners, you’re just going to end up rushing even faster into jingoism, militarism, and McCarthyism, which will ultimately only accelerate the slide into fascism.

Europe is fucked for the same reason America is: because they’ve completely bought into their own propaganda about being the “exceptional free world” and thus have become incapable of even acknowledging the existence of domestic structural issues, instead scapegoating all of their problems onto the corrupting influence of the foreign Other, which is an ideological path guaranteed to lead to fascism.

Yeah, that’s the problem with the current administration: they’re not loyal nationalists…

What the world needs, what you need as a country, is for people to be a bit more discerning and conscious about the reliability of what they read online, and that includes not treating Wikipedia like holy scripture in the way that far too many people do.

That’s really the best response you could manage?

Because .ml hasn’t been defederated yet. The label of tankie will always be applied to the most leftwing visible group.

Being left of the DNC doesn’t make people tankies.

Ask 10 people what makes someone a tankie and you’ll get 20 definitions, none of which will actually be how any of those people use the word in practice. Being left of the DNC is absolutely enough to get you branded a tankie.

In most peoples minds, tankies are pro-authoritrian and lick the boots of China, NK, and are symapthatic with Russias imperialistic invasion of Ukraine.

See? By this definition, none of the existing “tankie triad” would even count as tankies, but they get the label anyway, because ultimately it just means people to the left of the DNC.

Hmm, interesting. Why them?

Good point, and checking the first few pages I see 4 bans from .ml compared to 12 from .world.
