Pointless French grammar point on a meme: l' is short for singular le when followed by a vowel. For plural, you have to use les, whatever follows. French for otter is loutre (lootre).

You know you want to start a new way.

Started with Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port to Roncesvalles? Yeah, it’s a bit silly to start with the biggest climb of the way, but I know many people do to start from France.

Great long distance walkers too. With some adaptation time, about anyone can walk about 30 km a day, for weeks. For proof, the tens of thousands of people of all fitness levels walking the Camino de Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage every year.

It gives a hint to people about why some leftists don’t consider what they call tankies as the real left way, they can read the tankies Wikipedia page for more details. I’m not expecting the communities being targeted by the tankies qualifier to agree with it, I was writing for the vast majority of people who are not from those, especially the recent wave of former redditors.

Not much more reasons that listening to yours, we are just some pseudonyms sharing opinions on a public forum.

Because leftists usually defend human rights, and the authoritarian regimes defended by some people on Hexbear (but also lemmygrad and ml) tend to attack those human rights when they are in the way of their ideology (not unlike the far right politicians).

Ah, I saw a lot of people traumatized by their posting, but it is the first time I hear about the opposite.

People who don’t like their ideology tend to say that they are a tankie community. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

Any relation with this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouba/kiki_effect ?

The yellow object is actually your leaver liver.

So you’ve been promoted to a management position.

It’s a battle of political ideologies.

ml is administered by the creators of Lemmy, they are openly socialist/communist/tankie depending on your own ideology, ml was chosen to represent Marxism-Leninism, and so the people it attracted are generally also adhering to this kind of ideologies.
.world was created for Redditors exile, as such, it is mostly center-left to social democrat.

Political extremists tend to extremise everything, typically a tankie will call you a Nazi/fascist if you disagree with them. That’s one of your answer.

Secondly, some ml people are frustrated that Lemmy is not their own little thing anymore for them and their friends, as world is the biggest instance now by far. So they show some kind of instance-xenophobia, not much different from the Great Replacement theory: “we are being culturally replaced through mass migration”.

Not all .ml people are like that of course. In my experience, it is enough to block a few tankies to get back to civilized discussions.

Shouldn’t the last guy who’s thrown out of the window be the one carrying the correct message of fixing it ASAP?
