I keep thinking of bad things and then say “wow I bet Hexbear would like this thing” and then I smugly smile while shit leaks out of my pants. Both ends.
I called you a tankie on the internet therefore ipso fatso socialism is over.
So I used to spend a lot of time on R*ddit and I was an anarchist for a long time, so because of that you’d just get familiarised with the usernames of more active anarchists over time.
(This was to the point where one user, u/fuckeverythingever, who was a fairly prolific poster on that account [and prior ones that got banned but they had a distinct disposition and writing style so it was easy enough to recognise when one of his accounts would get banned and then a new account would spring up talking about the same things with the same mannerisms and I’d be like - oh hey, he’s back!], went dark and then not long after news travelled around about the death of a young Portland anarchist named Sean Kealiher and while he never gave out his real name or his age online, it lined up well enough that I’m pretty well sure that was his account and that we knew each other online.)
It was a bitterly funny thing to me, when the term tankie started to enter mainstream discourse around the same time I became an ML, that I would see these slapfights break out in more mainstream subs and there’d be an anarchist account which I’d be able to recognise and some lib would be accusing them of being a tankie for being too far to the left of them.
Often I’d see it and be like “Hang on, I’m pretty sure I recognise that username…” so I’d check their posting history and sure enough it’d be yet-another instance of an anarchist being called “tankie” by a liberal.
The tankie-as-political-slur revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for human discourse.
some lib would be accusing them of being a tankie for being too far to the left of them.
Happens to me all the time
Hey you already got a :order-of-lenin: from me and an invitation to Lemmgrad fellow tankie. That’s were you belong, that’s your new home.
If I saw a tankie in real life I’d go right up to them and say “sir I like good things”
Make sure you bring your dad with you to help debate.
I bring my dad with me everywhere I go.
Ah, always ready to debate the wild tankies. I like your style.
Whenever we win against a tankie, my dad takes me for ice cream
My dad’s dead too.
over.
One time a Hexbear said something mean to me and then I cammed myself. Sure showed that tankie!
one time *sniff* one time i s-saw a hexbear user and i s-said “g-good things are good” and they said “actually good things are bad” and i jus- i just man im fuckign crying just thinking about it i cant stpo crying
Counter point, Russia does capitalism just as bad as they did communism. If we did it in Murrica, we’d kick ass at it and be a shining beacon of socialism.
I want to congratulate you on the dumbest shit I’ve read all day before I ban you.
Is it serious or not? The “Murrrica” makes me think it’s deliberately ambiguous. We need to get more response to ascertain whether this kind of thing is a clever bit or not.
It seemed it was serious
There’s no way that’s serious, it’s too funny
Murrica is usually used in a joking way with exaggerated patriotism so I think it’s a joke. No one who would say that in a serious way would consider communism as an option
Hey, another thing you guys have in common with the alt right, banning people who disagree with you, guess I’ll add that to the list!
when your only lens for political analysis is aesthetics
Show us the list, coward
Our demands:

Yes it’s for disagreeing with us… Jesus Christ you guys are absolute idiots.
Funny, that’s the same complaint in reverse that alt right guys make when they get banned by libs
Add this to your list
i promise its information and not a meme, idk how to unblur it
I thought it dipped tremendously when the Soviet Union was officially dismantled
It dipped significantly but this graph is at a scale that includes Tsarist Russia where people were serfs with no access to medicine in a pre-industrial society. Having some extremely basic stuff like food and vaccines makes it virtually impossible to get that low again (unless you’re being invaded by Nazis).
Have you seen the scale? There’s a 5 year drop starting in 1991. It’s not as massive as the gains made under communism, but it’s a very significant reduction in life expectancy.
The fall of the Soviet Union was one of the greatest crimes in human history.
this is a bit, right?
this is a bit, right?
Radioactive levels of chauvinism, stick a burger in it shithead.
Even as a bit, this is cringe.
you’re a stupid asshole, shut the fuck up liberal
Death to America
What is materialism?Counter point, Russia does capitalism just as bad as they did communism. If we did it in Murrica, we’d kick ass at it and be a shining beacon of socialism.
yes all your socialists have so much work to show
until your daddies killed the good ones.
Unlimited genocide to america
Honestly I’m a little ashamed at how many people on this website took the bait on this one. This is a good post.
If this is a joke it’s phrased in such a way that it’s totally ambiguous and I find that really funny in and of itself.
If this isn’t a joke, please read Settlers.
Holy fucking shit the perfect bait, if you had a set of pronouns you’d be celebrated but because you don’t the hogs got feral and ate you alive :data-laughing:
Some good fucking shit.
I’ve been seeing posts from this instance for awhile because I can’t figure out how block specific instances and everytime I open a thread it is a cesspool of a mental mastrubating echo chamber.
that pain you feel is your echo chamber being breached and your brain de-pressurizing
i wish i could block tankies too. just the thought of one being next to me scares me so much that i wet myself quite frequently. they mentally masturbate to bad things instead of good things.
Can confirm that I mentally masturbate to line going down instead of line going up.
mental mastrubating echo chamber.
What you are doing is totally just autoerotic cranial resonance with your fellow enlightened centrist free thinkers, by contrast.
Centrists don’t exist. Neither do free thinkers.
Centrists don’t exist.
Well we agree on this point.
Did you find a new height of self congratulatory masturbation where you can point down at the lowly rabble all around the world and say that they are the ones that are wrong?
You should find 50 billion and buy Twitter/X. Not much would change and not many would notice the difference.
Yeah? Which things are “mental masturbation” and why do they bother you? What specifically has someone said?
This post is obviously circlejerking, for deliberate effect, it’s irony and a joke. What actually serious things are you talking about?
Every post on here is meta talking about yourselves rather than your philosophy. Just a bunch posts saying “Watch me destroy these libtards”. Most of the content here is meaningless ad hominem attacks.
We have daily megathreads on theory and current events. Right now we have a pinned cross post from 3 years ago, encouraging all Lemmy users to read a book about trans liberation. What more theory do you want? Have you ever visited one of our comms, or do you just land here from browsing Top All?
Our meta posts probably get more upvotes because theyre funny to us (and apparently other Lemmy instances) and we have a culture of balancing out serious shit with a heavy dose of irony
literally just open http://hexbear.net and you will find evidence against what you claim
And what are you doing? You’re just another boring Reddit liberal doing boring Reddit liberal shit.
Do you not see the irony in your reply?
I don’t believe in Reddity debatebro shit. If you want to be seen as original somehow, be more entertaining.
Welcome to arguments on the internet.
You’re trying to sound smug and self congratulatory about being a boilerplate generic smug Reddit liberal.
okay idk who needs to hear this but if you have an echo chamber do not use it as a cesspool. and if you must use your echo chamber as a cesspool, do not masturbate in it. You risk disease, hearing loss, and smelling really bad.

Yeah it’s a bit weird where the echo chamber setting is. The tankie Lemmy devs don’t want people blocking instances.
It’s on this settings page under the FAQs
We deliver!

I am aware of the sarcasm of this post as OP has their account on hexbear. But you are guys are basically communists but worse. You guys aren’t proles and you aren’t pro-prole and never will be.

I don’t believe communism = bad. I like the idea of Communism (or atleast what Marx says). Saying “Opinion discarded” just means you don’t want to have a discussion and you have nothing to say. If you block every opinion you will never learn anything new and no one will want to listen to you. Disgarding people is not how you make people agree with you. I don’t how this movement you have here is ever going to succeed if you can’t convince others to join you.
this movement you have here
my dude, this is an internet forum. despite what some may think, this site is not in fact the front lines of the movement that will bring about communism.
so I don’t think anyone gives two shits about convincing you of anything. best I can dream of is getting you to learn the definitions of words like “prole”.
The lecturing on how we need to be better to achieve our supposed aims by making sure we don’t hurt others’ feelings is so common I don’t know why. It has the same energy as when men complain to women or feminists telling them ‘if you were a bit nicer, maybe I wouldn’t be misogynistic’.
I’m having a hard time understanding why people engage with us in that way. Do they think they are helping? Is it to put themself on some sort of moral high ground or to indicate the extent of how polite society works?
I don’t engage negatively, but I can hardly blame comrades who do especially after one can see their patience wearing thin after several exchanges with similar rhetoric in sequence.
Proleteriat?

Then why did choose to reply to my comment in the first place just to say “opinion discarded”? You could have just read it and left.

Suck off a liberal and a fascist cums
I’m 50/50 on the huge image macros. Needs a psyduck to feel like early 2000s Something Awful tho.
they’re not supposed to be huge. I think that’s a lemmy bug. On hexbear.net they have a CSS property that limits their width to 56px.
That’s my understanding. It raises standard image macros to another level. I think that bug is why a lot of people dislike them, but it makes it hilarious to me.
