lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad users verbally fellate contemporary and historical autocratic mass-murderers they deem to be “leftists”, or "great leaders and allies to the cause", most recently being Vladimir Putin, Xi Jingping, and Kim Jong Un.

They are, in reality, bitch-made invertebrates who don’t even have the arm-strength to lift their Molotov-sippy-cups out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks, let alone form meaningful opinions on economics, political philosophy, or geopolitical reality.

Damn it all. They didn't disclose how I was supposed to behave during the sign up process.

The downside of anything decentralized is that only community pressure reduces scams.

Yeah it's a big trick because the ML owners are Tankie scum but they're also the lead developers and I think the own the page which recommends instances.

JFC son this is not a roast this is a fucking napalm strike, god damn.

New user checking in, did you use the two asterisks or the pound sign?

[–] aarch64@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Pound, check out Markdown syntax somewhere online. There's a ton of different flavors, but most of the basics (headings/bold/italics/links/etc) are the same.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The asterisks work for italicized characters, but the c-squared(pound) sign didn't. Maybe cause we're on different instances?

[–] aarch64@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Did you put a space between the pound and your text?

# should look like this
[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago

Thank you! I'm still used to Reddit markdown.

So, tankies? At first I got attracted by the leftist/communist/socialist branding of the instance, but at the time the concept of fediverse was too complex for me when I first registered there so I deleted my account. I'm glad I did, then lol, supporting Putin, Xi, Kim just because they are "the left" is like supporting Hitler just because he is "the right".
