Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.
A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.

The sad truth is that unlike reddit, Lemmy is seen as "too small" and "not worth astroturfing".
It is plainly not fitting the Russian model of spreading propaganda and recruitment, so we aren't going to get wumaos and similar paid shills here.
These are unfortunately 100% real delusional sad people
