Dbzer0 admins have a little fight where db0 tells a user that they're attracting too many tankies (exactly like I did to db0). They wonder why tankies are given more leeway than liberals

    Like it’s such a weird comment. Here’s me literally asserting that the male/female paradigm is a spectrum in response to an actual transphobe. These debate tactics are always so lazy. They have nothing to get you on, so they resort to ad hominems they know they’re gonna receive mass support on regardless of your actual points.

    So fucking stupid

      Taken factually, yes. It’s not meant factually. It’s meant tribally, to tag someone as “enemy” by assigning something irredeemable to them and marking them as a hated enemy in the eyes of the group. That’s why the tags are always the same, and have nothing to do with anything the person actually said or did.

        Couldn’t have said it better. There has to be a name for this phenomenon.

Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don’t be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether it be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users, as it handwaves their extremism.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.

Brigading — If you’re here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned.

Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.

You’ll be warned if you’re violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.


Don’t engage with Antiyanks – DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE ANTIYANKS. YOU DO NOT RECOGNISE ANTIYANKS. YOU DO NOT RECOGNISE ANTIYANKS.
