I hate to be that guy, but it is literally already too late to reverse climate change, largely due to the attitude of people like you.

Turns out incremental change is worthless when you are on a time limit.

In fairness they probably find the Lemmy.world politics subs equally as divisive.

I stick clear of politics on Lemmy all together unless I really can’t hold my tongue

Communist != Tankie.

Communism is explicitly an economic framework. “Tankie” defines authoritarians who believe in the Communist economic framework. That leaves a lot of room for all other sorts of Communists.

Hex-bear is the reason I’m on Lemmy.world. That’s why I think people are overblowing the .ML drama.

You want to see tankies? Look at Hexbear

So then why not just block those subs?

I haven’t found Lemmy.ml to be all that objectionable. It’s not like they are hexbear.

By that logic, brave, duck duck go, start page, qwant, and mojeek could also just be lying.

It is if they dont store search queries, which they claim they dont. I have no reason to distrust them.

Im a massive proponent of FOSS, But I have not heard a single sustainable FOSS model for maintaining free search engines. It just takes so much capital to operate.

I think a paid model is much better than a privacy disrespecting / ad driven one.

I know Lemmy doesn’t like it, but Kagi is really great

Im sorry, but your facts are wrong man, namely that hexbear does not support the invasion.

At this point Im choosing to block you. Ive already gotten away from the tankies once. No interested in trying to argue with one again.

Marx didint even believe in an established government. Much less one that invades a soveriegn nation such as Ukraine. Are you implying imperialism is compatible with the views of Marx?

There’s a differnece in being anti NATO and pro Ukraine invasion.

I thought you asked for examples of harassment…

No, their pro CCP and Kremlin takes are enough for the latter.

Particularly that they are pro Ukranian invasion. I could even buy an anti US imperialism stance. but they are instead pro Russian imperialism.

Sure. I reported a death threat, the mods posted the report to dunktank, and the mobs came after me.

The account has, understandably, been deleted. Weeks of harassment.

I have ample experience with these people. That’s why I created an account here. They bullied me with mod supported targeted harassment because I wasn’t communist enough or something.

To be honest, I don’t really think you’re engaging in good faith.

I think being demonstrably pro-Russian anti-Ukraine is one such example. I think they coddled the Chinese government too much. The allies they have do not align with true communist values.

I never made any characterization of Marx-Leninism. I think you’re wildly misattributing that philosophy to the hex-bear crowd.
