The problem with lemmy right now is that there are too few instances. The instances that has momentum has a strong tankies presence which a lot of people are uncofortable with. The most natural answer would be for them to create their own instance, but they chose to leave the platform instead 🤯
They could absorb the entire platform in the process, like the my little pony guys in some imageboards. The level of flood back then was sometimes unbearable.
Except that when people say “tankies” they are not referring to all socialists, but to the branch that supports authoritarian socialist governments, pretty much on the opposite end of the leftist spectrum from anarchism, so I understand why op would feel that way, although I will take that community any day over a right leaning community.

Its fair to criticize me for using the term tankies. What is a better term for one who support these countries?

Couldn’t care less if they call me tankie.
