Thanks for sharing. Every time I see a picture of the Tiananmen Square massacre I get shivers. That man is one of the most amazing icons of resistance against oppression. I like to think of myself as brave but I'm genuinely skeptical if I'd have the courage to stand in front of a tank that way.
Oh wow a .ml account denying Chinese atrocities how rare oh my gosh.
I like when they speak up because then I can tag them "Certified Tankie™" on sync
The block button also works great.
I don't like to miss out on the conversation. But keeping labels makes it easier to call out idiots
Someone should make an extension that cross references account names with ones on the various defederated instances, whenever there's a comment like that, I check Hexbear for their username, and literally every single time I have so far they have an account there too
That particular guy is an OG first wave r/ChapoTrapHouse banning refugee (the reason it exists, its original name was Chapo.Chat), Hexbear account is 4 years old with over 3k comments
How do you tag them?
In sync for lemmy, go to a person's profile, and scroll the options to the right until you see the tag option
Thank you.
I'm starting to feel like I made my account on the wrong instance if those people are the average
Yeah, I'm sorry to say that's looking more and more like the case. Lemmygrad and Hexbear were the most obvious and have been either defederated or blocked by most, and it seems like the users have made their way to ML.
I was just about to look into what options I had for blocking all users from the ML instance automatically, and I'm sure others are considering the same.
For your edification, the people spouting pro-CCP propaganda like those in this post are called "tankies".
After getting a bigotry removal for even mentioning Tankies exist, I blocked all .ml instances. Dont have time to deal with Tankie snowflakes
Not sure how it works on the web interface, but in the app I'm using (Thunder), you click on the 3 dots next to the upvote arrow, choose instance and then block instance.
Yeah.
Do you prefer black or brown boot? Or some other? Can you give me a top 5?
Atrocity denial is not welcome here, and neither are the people who engage in it.
I agree but I think it's too bad that someone needs to choose between deleting a comment to stop the spread of lies and propaganda and the other option of leaving it in place so people can see it. I think it's helpful to see that people like this exist, it helps you understand why people are opposed to these types of people and who is being called a tankie in a negative way.
Agree, but also deleted comments are in the modlog, easy to read them
Also, a lot of apps allow you to read a deleted/removed comment by clicking on the reply button.
Says the dude who habitually justifies American involvement in the genocide of the Palestinian people.
BeCaUsE tRuMp!
Know the signs of stroke!
I think you dropped your whataboutism.
Dude why are you digging your grave deeper like this? You are losing your cool and looking a fool. When you assume, you make an ass out of u and me. Shall I go on? No, I shan't.
Even the Chinese government says a couple hundred civilians died. "At the end of June 1989, the Chinese government said 200 civilians and several dozen security personnel had died. Other estimates have ranged from hundreds to many thousands. In 2017, newly released UK documents revealed that a diplomatic cable from then British Ambassador to China, Sir Alan Donald, had said that 10,000 had died."
I honestly don't know what your goal is with that post but I choose to believe the many sources (Chinese and international) that show a different history than what you'd have me believe. At least hundreds died with thousands more injured, and that's the low end of the estimates.
Something something libtard something. Commumism killed bazillons, libtard thinks. Therefore commumism didn't kill anyone. Also do you even support Palestine?
What's a libtard?
The strawman that the point of view they're satirizing (I think) uses.
Are you being paid, really fucking gullible, or just plain evil?
.ml is a shit hole instance. Everyone rightfully ridiculing this post risks getting preemptively banned on ml because their dipshit tankie mods are that soft.
Jfc, imagine loving the taste of boot this much... 🤮

Go fuck yourself.
Typical lies from Lemmy.ml.
Can you imagine how funny it would be if anybody actually believed this take?
