First comment removed from asklemmy thread about who’s good/bad re Israel/Palestine is apparently too nuanced and anti-extremist for snowflake dessalines. Ya gotta fuel the hate and extremism if ya wanna comment round tankie parts…
The linux ban was regarding a comment (pretty sure the OG comment was different) about Russian maintainers being removed from the linux project. Obviously you can’t call out capitalist Putin’s authoritarian dictatorship in the communist sub, because ML mods are pro-authoritarian and pro-dictatorship; not anti-capitalist… At this point I’m convinced most “tankies” are just PsyOps operatives.
Ethnicity has no consistent definition, and the everyday use of racism can absolutely describe discrimination of a specific nationality. It’s also just arguing pointless semantics regardless, especially when the original complaint is about russians not being a “race” which is an utterly made up term that means whatever racists want it to.
