It’s just replaced with propaganda from nations that “tried” communism. I’ve seen plenty of people from tankie instances saying shit about how Ukraine should just roll over to Russia so that they solve their Nazi problem, how the Uyghur people aren’t being ethnically cleansed, and other such wonderful talking points coming from the Russian and Chinese governments.

Claiming that you see these comments everywhere on lemmy, at the scale you see bigotry on Voat, is laughably preposterous.

Genocide denial and equating those fighting in a defensive war to Nazis is just as bad as hate speech. These people are just following fascist ideals, but replacing every instance of the phrase “right-wing” in fascism’s definition with “left-wing.” Flying a hammer and sickle doesn’t make it any less authoritarian, regardless of what they’re calling it.

I assure you it is not. One causes active harm to people in online communities and pushes the world toward normalizing fascist tactics, and the other is someone terminally online tankie LARPing with no great effect.
