Yeaaahhh, tankies are a pretty big issue on Lemmy, sadly… They don’t seem to understand they’re the equivalent of a dumbass redneck screeching about what ever false ‘fact’ they heard on Fox News, but from a supposed left framing…

Part of the reason I blocked news, too. Not only do I not want to doomscroll, but I don’t want to get in an argument over how the news isn’t so bad actually and Russia/China/Mao totally already have a solution we just need to implement or some such shit. (ok bad generic, but it’s hard to generalize their flavor of fake enlightenment. lol)

Almost as bad as the libertarians that think deregulating capitalism is the perfect solution to every problem.
