The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of "left solidarity"

I've held community polls and discussions for every major decision or event in this community. I figured that this was a major enough event that the public should be brought in to the discussion.
This isn't zoomer whatever the fuck this is me sticking to the way the community has operated for the past 3 months.
