Note to the commenters here: This is a single comm, not the instance. We have plenty of anti-tankie comms as well, like !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com !tankiejerk@lemmy.dbzer0.com. That comm tries misguidedly to enforce left-unity, which is why it's always ending up in drama like that.

    It's not misguided. It's intentionally using the paradox of tolerance to open a space for the hexbear crowd.

    We have plenty of anti-tankie comms as well

    Leftymemes, nominally, is also supposed to have that stance. It's the first line in the description. You'd never know it by the people that post there, the content they post, or the mods they answer to.

    This is a single comm, not the instance.

    You don't have a Nazi bar. The Nazis are just making a lot of noise, being belligerent to non-Nazis, and inviting more and more of their friends.

    Mhm, equating online tankies to nazis is sure something...

    Yeah, their flags are totally different.

    Mate, even you instinctively know the difference. What would you fear most, a gathering of nazis or a gathering of communists. If you had to walk through one of them to get away, which would you choose? Tankies out of state power are harmless. In fact their criticisms of capitalism and their takes on social justice tend to be on point.

    You also have mods draconically ban any constructive conversation arguing that genAI is bad in LeftyMemes and undoubtedly other communities.

    We have an instance-wide rule about that which has been voted in by the community. It's not draconian, we just don't want every post in our instance comms to become a salt mine with genai haters

    A majority of a specific in-group voted for that rule at some point in the past? Oh wow, I'm sorry, there's no way that can be unjust.

    What's telling is that the comments defending AI stay up, saying how they've never seen good arguments while banning good arguments without explanation.

    But sure, it's no skin off my back. I'll block your communities and your admins and mods and advise your users to migrate. Try to learn something from this when your community implodes in a couple years.

    No, the whole instance voted.

    That's the ticket!

    But that doesn't make much sense.

    Did the majority of the instance vote for this rule, or was it only the people who actually showed up to vote? Because if it's the latter, then it's not very representative, is it? Wouldn't the fact that many comments criticising the use of GenAI, which directly inflates AI and tech companies and the worst that capitalism has to offer, being removed show that it's not a clear majority, and you should revote?

    And even when, why would anarchists vote when you've shown yourself to be draconian? When you remove and ban random users for random reasons. Isn't one of anarchists core beliefs that voting means implicit agreement with the state? With you being the state in this example.
