On lemmy.world I posted a comment on how liberals use ‘tankie’ as an invective to shut down dialogue and received tons of hateful replies. I tried to respond in a rational way to each. Someone’s said ‘get educated’ I responded ‘Im reading Norman Finkelstein’s I’ll burn that bridge when I get there’ and tried to keep it civil.
They deleted every comment I made and banned me. Proving my point, they just want to shut down dialogue. Freedom of speech doesn’t existing in those ‘totalitarian’ countries right? But in our ‘enlightened’ western countries we just delete you.
Ahaha it gets better every comment. -(Wrong) Assumtions about my political believes -ranting about stuff I day don’t even say (classical strawman)
This is a joke that just keeps on giving :D
It’s in the title. It’s the new woke.
Try reading what thread you’re in first.
Also: Would you send tanks into hungary?
Yeah, but I didn’t say anywhere that I agree with the OPs on the other server.
I think the word tankie gets used inflationary by centrists that don’t know what it means, but that’s not what u want to think. You want to put me in a box in your heads ;)
That’s what a liberal would say.
A liberal would also dodge all questions that make imperialists uncomfortable, like whether they would send tanks into hungary.
You want to put me in a box in your heads ;)
Hey Mr. Actually Laughing, that’s what you came in here to do. Don’t want to fit in the box? Don’t be a square
