What is a tankie? Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to
authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by
such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to
those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics,
whether contemporary or historical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

It’s a real goofy time over there, haha. A lib tried to Ultra me and tell me Lemmy is Capitalist because posting is Value, and asserted that I haven’t read Marx, only being exposed to Lenin via memes.
Deeply unserious people.
tell them to make a hexbear account and try to prove their point here
If they try to swing back again I will, but I think they finally realized how cooked they are.
That, or they were trolling the entire time to make me look better, but it’s .world so I doubt it lol
If a website (like Twitter or facebook) make money off ads and our posts bring viewers to ads then yeah us posting creates value in some way for the capitalists who own the websites.
I don’t think lemmy has ads though? I never see them if it does.
Wtf was their point anyway? “You claim to hate capitalism, yet you participate in capitalism. Curious!” posting? Classic reactionary dipshittery
Lemmy has no ads whatsoever, it’s FOSS. Some Lemmy apps do, like Sync.
Their point seemed to be that the devs are actually hypocrites and admins are basically bourgeoisie.
Your comments there are very funny
I do try, haha. Thanks, comrade!
