Do conservatives and tankies added together cancel each other?

lately dem centrists have been palling around with republicans, so maybe dnc centrists and leftists cancel each other out.

It’s not that these groups are full of true liberals, it’s that much of the population isn’t tolerant of lies and misinformation. So it seems that “conservatives” are being targeted.

I've seen people be objectively correct but assholes with their delivery and get fucking blasted on here. Regardless of politics I'd youre a prick you get vibe checked.

The only issue I have with this is that this fules the generalisation of politics even more. There is a lot more of a nuance in politics than just left/right or conservatives/liberals etc. You see this more in countries with more politics parties. It’s not an either or but a spectrum.

But this meme really suits the current climate of Shitter and the US politic system

If you voted for Trump you are allied with everyone who voted for Trump under one banner. The nuance is academic at that point. If you knowingly vote with nazis you’ve teamed up with Nazis. The reasoning is immaterial.

Then why have any discourse at all.

God, imagine that... we switch to federated and the Nazis can no longer hide behind "Just asking questions" and getting the site admins to bully people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Well the issue also is that nazis could prosper in here. If they had their own instance I fear there would be a massive delay before every single instance defederates

Don’t need every instance to do it in tandem tbh.

You only have to talk sense.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago

lol. you just got here, huh?

They are slowly leaking into lemmy.world, my friends living in .world please try your best to hold your position there. Don't let them break through

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 minutes ago

At this point, I think we should invite back hexbear tankies to roll over the conservatives and "centrist" in .world

I'm half joking, but there may be some truth in that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 minutes ago

Lemmy.world communities for news and politics are already moderated far too strictly. Discourse is impossible because of the liberal distributions of bans there.

Whenever beating up fascists and their sympathizers is a question the answer is always yes >:3
