        It is not the point, they are not using Stalin ironically. They legitimately believe Stalin was a good person despite the USSR’s treatment towards queers and jews.

          Do you have proof (or literally any evidence) of their “legitimate beliefs” of Stalin as a good person, or are you extrapolating an opinion you already believe and want to fight about from the use of a single emote? Because it certainly feels like the latter until you provide anything to back up your statement.

            Tankies as a group love to defend Stalin though, so the point still stands especially for an admin of a tankie community.

            The point of the post is that it’s ignorant to use Stalin positively when his regime killed queers and jews.

              I don’t think she uses it positively, she’s just using the reaction image to show her sending to the “gulag” (banning) everyone with harsh opinions she and her communities don’t share

                    Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

                    Have you not looked at any of the posts on this community showcasing Hexbear repeatedly praising Stalin and the USSR’s atrocities?
