I’ve seen around 3 occasions of that this week, altho I have never seen anything like it before.

if I remember correctly they were:

  • smack talking a mod (FlyingSquid) for saying not to report the same comment twice, when they were different comments, and the report was spam
  • someone comparing .world with .ml in politics (as in there was a comment saying "this post will be overrun with .ml people, and then a comment going “but you are from .world”) (Maybe Im part of the problem? I have been called out for being a fascist because I questioned the “puching nazis” theme)
  • one more which I can’t remember.

Anyways, what is all that about? Are people really starting to hate on 50% of the lemmy population because of their instance?

    Drag has no idea what you’re talking about, does not support China, and would prefer lowercase pronouns, please.

      If drag does not support China, drag is probably not a tankie. If drag calls drag communist and consider Russia and North Korea communist-led countries, drag is wrong, however. A charitable description of those countries would be “socialist” by Marx’s definition.

        Russia is capitalist, mate. The Berlin Wall fell. Drag doesn’t know why you think drag might be a tankie. Drag’s an anarchist. And you replied to a comment about milk.

          Then drag and I are in agreement :)

          I saw drag clarification that drag comment was just about milk and not politics or economics. Myself and others had a different interpretation, which is where things were misunderstood.

            Ohhh, drag just went back and read the thread. This is a China thread. Drag forgot. Drag just has strong opinions on milk, drag didn’t mean to imply anything about economics. Vegan milk is a more important political issue in drag’s opinion than whatever humans are up to.
