Chat, is saying “stop sucking putin’s dick” homophobic?
Jesus christ, this is so cathartic. I’ve been on [email protected] for so long and have always had a mild concern about the kind of content that seems to collect up votes over there. I recently had the audacity to define fascist tankies based on the content of their posts, and got screamed down hard. Open, honest conversation is so fucking unwelcome over there, regardless of how genuinely understanding one attempts to be, and for a little while I was genuinely concerned that’s where politics is going. It’s nice to know I actually had just meandered into a tankie bubble, and reasonable people do exist on the internet.
Dicks are irrelevant here, dissing Russia or China will get you banned on .ml
Always has been… that’s how you check who rules them ;)
Seems they won’t ban you for dissing the governments, they’re too chickenshit for that. They’ll ban you for either “misinfo” (not aligning with kremlin talking points) or cultural insensitivity, in this case - mods explicitly arguing user’s statement is homophobia.
It’s funny because their news community is full of the same Tankies spewing disinformation in the comments, even insulting people. But the mods actively ignore that when you report it.
It’s the same game conservatives like to play. They’ve setup their rules such that whenever they WANT to silence someone, they can find a justification that fits for it.
Can I join the club?
Jesus, the homophobia thing.
The bad part is that it’s Putin! That’s the insult!
I strongly support ppl sucking any dick they’d like, as long as it’s not attached to an authoritarian.
Right! We’re pro-fellatio, here. We’re not antife. But don’t do any favors involving a dictator.
There’s a massive gap between “stop sucking dick, it’s wrong” and “stop sucking that dick, he doesn’t deserve it.”
“We don’t support Russia!” - MLs when called out on supporting Russia
“Russia isn’t a fascist dictatorship!” - MLs every other moment of their lives.
