And you are documenting them while they do it? I’d like to share an analogy with you:

I cant stand 2 things:

1. The Kardashians
2. People who spend their entire lives loudly telling everyone they hate the Kardashians.

I hope the analogy is clear without leaving me open to being called a tankie by some politically illiterate neckbeard. Not specifically knocking you Guy Dudeman, I’m just making a point about the tankies and the tankie haters as they appear from the outside. It is rampant, and extremely fucking tiring.

I mean your response does imply that you aren’t here to calmly discuss nuance, to be fair.

Stop wasting everyones time

A communist?

Wolf 2 was fucking awesome

Russia is literally just a shitty oligarch ridden country, it is not in any way communist. This is not a conversation, it’s just recorded fact.

We are not arguing, I’m telling you what reality is, and you are telling me donald trump is a tankie and russia is the soviet union still. This is silly, please see sense.

Yeah thats russia, a capitalist nation since 1994? Do you read the news? it was quite a big event.

You think donald trump is a tankie?

Give me a call when they hold any political power whatsoever <3

I’m on librewolf just now having used vivaldi for about three years as my daily. Great browser, I just fancied swapping the chromium problems for gecko problems for a while :D

You can like one thing without having to shit on the other. Firefox is fine. Vivaldi is cool. Simple as that. Not everything is a team sport.

crash out in progress

shh

I am deeply in love with Troy Jackson lol <3

And we will be there for Angie Nixon in 2028.

Keep fighting the good fight, lemons are full of energy and citrus!

This reply made my day. Thank you for your empathetic response, it made up for reading the comment you responded to, and you responded to it far better than I did <3

You just replied to me to explain, in answer to my question “Why does dou9m think that I can expect every ml user to be a fan of a gas station brand?” is that its because they are authoritarians? Like I was making a joke obviously, but your response doesn’t actually make any sense.

Don’t worry, we all know what tankies are, and we all think they are very silly and unimportant people. It’s hard to spend any time on lemmy without knowing about them. I find the people who follow them around screaming about it to be just as annoying as they are.

So for future reference: We get it, my dude.

You realize you are replying TO me yeah? its rude to talk about someone in the third person when they are in front of you.

Thanks for the heads up about “some people” sandwich guy, I’ll be sure to keep my head on a swivel lol

So you think if Jeffreys gets to keep his job, and bearing in mind I agree with you that he is a fucking waterproof teabag, you think that this entire election cycle and all of the new people brought into congress, will have “little effect”?

I mean it would be a blow, but don’t you think that this kind of hyperbolic overreaction is unhelpful? Like, if he does, are you gonna give up? I’m not in a competition to be the most leftist, I want to push our wins and recover from our losses.

They way you talk is defeatist.

It’s the same dynamic as shouting all lives matter was back in the day. All lives Do matter, but that ain’t why you’re saying it right now. We see you. (edit the proverbial you, not talking about the guy I’m replying to)

Are they big fans of gas stations over there?
