db0 is many things, but a tankie is not one of them
Comment on Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

Yes. I’ll read the content, but I try to avoid interacting.
Mind you, db0 himself is a tankie, although he doesn’t seem to insist on imposing that on the users or communities on his instance.

Dafuq? I thinks that prep just uses “tankie” interchangeably with radical lefty or something. Ie they don’t know what they’re talking about

Most political slurs (“tankie”, “Nazi”, “fascist”, “communist”, “leftist”, “liberal”, “centrist”, etc.), if they ever even start from a position of actually knowing what the words mean, rapidly transform into a general slur that means “someone that I disagree with who’s in a different political tribe from me”.

They explicitly say they’re not and I’ve had a number of interactions that suggest otherwise. Where are you getting this idea from?

Db0 is more anarchist than tankie. Quite a few threads on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com complain about mod tripping from tankie mods or admins, they are still there. Shows that they don’t censor that topic, which is already an improvement
