It’s 100% going to be.

Lemmy isn’t “special”. I’ve already seen hot takes and other things to get people riled up on Lemmy.

I wasn’t gonna start a fight here though lol. The entire place was infested with tankies. The dude I responded to is probably a tankie.

I laughed when the complaint was liberals invading Lemmy lmao.

Can we get some more information about what the problem and solution was? Or a link to your other thread?

When I was on Reddit, I responded to a guy in latestagecapitalism who was talking about how Stalin wasn't that bad, and how everything we hear about the Soviets is fake information, made up as Western Propaganda.

I chimed in telling him I'm Romanian, and how my grandpa was in WW2. I told him that my grandpa would always tell us anecdotes about how the Russians acted vs everyone else, and if anything it was worse than what we usually think of. Then I said that Stalin is too well known for it to all be fake.

Well the response I got was the guy called my grandpa a liar. Then like 10 minutes later, I got permanently banned from the subreddit.

That is when I learned what a Tankie was lol. And that the subreddit was infested with them.

I took one look at Lemmygrad, and oof.

Leftists aren’t tankies. Tankies are specifically pro USSR.

A pro authoritarian state. That’s why they are called tankies after all lol.

I don't like it, and will always apologize if it is my fault.

Honestly, I think its terrible advice lol. This is the type of shit that makes people not like management.

This is where you lose people. It’s been proven time and time again that the mics on your phones aren’t transmitting things back without you knowing about it.

Facebook isn’t always listening in on your conversations. They don’t need to. It’s useless data.

Voice isn’t how they figure out what you like and are probably talking about at any given moment with other people.

Here’s a short podcast episode that gets the point across: https://gimletmedia.com/amp/shows/reply-all/z3hlwr

You could literally physically destroy the microphone of your phone, and you’ll still get ads served up like “they are listening to you”

Tell Romania and Bulgaria that there are no more borders. :)

Really don't get why its posted here? Like, why is this dystopian?

I read what you said and I still don't understand.

Political compass memes is the first place I ran into a tankie, followed by latestagecapitalism. Too bad they are already here. At least they keep to their own instance.
