Either useful non political information or takes so comically bad they can’t hold any water. Mostly the later.
Why is this community so pro censorship? People here complain about tankie mods deleting comments and then the mods of this community are eager to remove anything they don’t like. Correct me if I am wrong but you only seem to allow comments that follow your political agenda.
I don’t see anything wrong with discussion as long as it isn’t name calling or getting out of hand.
I absolutely loathe American politics and I hate seeing it, but allow it. I also don’t like capitalism, but I allow posts defending it. I also don’t like hearing about the Israel-Palestine conflict, but I allow it.
You’ll find that this community is one of the more open communities across Lemmy regarding political discussion. There is also a warning system in place in this community where you’re given warnings before any action, and that action is usually, at most, a week ban. There has never been a permanent ban issued in this community except for in the most special cases, such as brigading.
Tankies, like all extremists, will typically say something agreeable like, “Landlords and CEOs are bad people.” And that allows them to look moderate. What they don’t say is their more disturbing views, that they wish to kill people they disagree with and their love of authoritarianism, antisemitism and general bigotry and hatred towards minorities.
There is also a thread dedicated for Tankies to discuss their ideas freely, but it was unfeatured because none of them used it. If you wish, I can refeature it, but I guarantee you it won’t be used.
Anyway I think I was seeing the warning comments and it that lead me to believe mod action was fairly aggressive. However, I would like to point out that a lot of your warnings are political on nature from what I’ve seen.
Anyway, I’ll hold off on creating the meanwhileonmeanwhileongrad community.
Side note: You should allow tankies to come here and defend there wild takes as it is entertaining. Just don’t allow anything to offensive.
I’m not on any political side. Left-Right is nonsense designed by elites to divide people into fighting one another instead of the common cause of all their problems. Plus, it doesn’t even apply in my country due to our voting system. Instead of labelling me as something, how about you just ask me what my views are?
And yes, they are political, this is a political community. Feel free to make whatever community you want, I don’t care. I think Tankies on Lemmygrad had a meanwhileonMOG somewhere; maybe you can go join that.
I’ll consider allowing Tankies outside the thread, but from experience, they don’t bother explaining themselves and usually just start trolling people.
Why are you all of a sudden so invested anyway? Making up stuff about my moderation, assuming my political opinions, and wanting to make other versions of this community. It’s a little weird, dude, what exactly do you want?

Define amazing take. Defending Tankies isn’t allowed on this community.

You sound far left to me.

I find the trolling to be particularly funny. It can be a slippery slope though to it is definitely something to be careful with.
Haven’t had complaints so far.
