What’s up with this straight up pro-china and pro-russia stuff on Lemmy lately?

It’s not even praising the people of China and Russia, but rather their gov directly.

Obviously the states have problems, and the EU to a lesser degree, but they at least have some human rights.

Is this some kind of organized disinformation campaign?

      They do, just because they’re called differently now, doesn’t mean they disappeared. If you call yourself a leftist instead of tankie, doesn’t mean you’re not a tankie anymore.

        Again, what the fuck are you talking about? Maybe try the section titled Where Did The Gulag Go? in Parenti’s Blackshirts and Reds.

        If you call yourself a leftist instead of tankie, doesn’t mean you’re not a tankie anymore.

        No idea what this is supposed to mean, but I’ll gladly call myself a tankie since it’s just a meaningless word used to slander anyone who’s not a NATO leftist.
