Honestly they don’t seem to be bothered about denying human rights violations they seem to think they’re a good thing.

People as deep into the ideology as people on here are think the dog whistles are signposts.
Most Reddit posts referring to lemmy direct people to lemmy.ml it’s effectively the landing page of the platform and if that landing page is being used to recruit people into a shitty authoritarian ideology then that taints the entire platform.
Just a thought, maybe it came with the fawning over of Putin and the CCP?
Follow the link, that’s happening on lemmy.ml not lemmygrad.ml.
Follow the link and tell me that isn’t straight up blur the lines recruitment BS.
This is happening on lemmy.ml I can cope with there being instances for tankies, what’s bothering me is one of the main instances pretending their not so that they can push straight up recruitment shit at people who don’t know.
I’m on another instance but it’s making me rather uncomfortable that a lot of the traffic is happening on an instance that seems like it’s 90 CCP members and Russian trolls.
The way things are on there I can’t even tell if this is just a joke.
People aren’t shouting “tankie” at you. You people are self identifying as tankies.
Great list. And the first Talos principle was great (DLC less so). Also the ending had a great build up to the end, but the actual end cutscene was a little meh.
Plus the 1991 game Lemmings.
This type of advertising is the death-knell of any site, because at that point you’re interacting with an advert with some extra elements rather than a site with ads.
Exactly. Hopefully he has actually said that to his people and not just leaked it to the press.
I wouldn’t take it as face value, it reads more like a deliberate leak to the press, than an actual email to employees.
Not that warming people not to identify themselves as Reddit employees isn’t a sensible message, emotions are high and it only takes one crazy person.
One of the people I was taking too was complaining that people were surprised that it was tanky when it was “obvious” from the domain name that it was Marxist Leninist.
I think the claim is nonsense. If that were their concern they would rather change the usage agreement and maybe take some of them to court.
What they actually did is everything in their power to drive mobile users to their mobile app. They want old fashioned user tracking data for advertising and selling on. Together with more in app ads.
Nah. I think the “.ml” means Marxist Leninist to them. At least that’s what one of the tanky types I chatted to on lemmy.ml said.
It unfortunately is very much the intent, but they don’t want to say that up front because no one would join.
