    You joined a platform founded and inhabited by Marxist Leninist and checks notes … expected them to leave. Wtf?

      No, I expected them to go hide in their little corner of it when the bulk of the population moving here turned out to reject their particular view on reality.

      Whether they “founded” the platform is irrelevant, it’s an open platform and they’re going to be in the minority.

      Edit: Oh, and since you switched the goalposts from tankies to “Marxist Leninists”, I figured I should point that out. I’m specifically talking about the people who think Russia’s full of awesome and manliness and crap like that, rather than being the kleptocratic mafia state basket case it actually is. “Marxist Lenninism” is just a word those people use to sound intellectual.

          In the past day I’ve been described as being “from” noncredibledefense and “from” datahoarder. I do happen to subscribe to both those communities, but I’m not “from” anywhere in particular. Those are just some of many subjects I’m interested in. It’s odd, this sort of community identification never seemed to come up on Reddit. And you personally certainly didn’t bring me here, I don’t know who you are.

          Also, not sure why you’ve identified me as a “Liberal.” Haven’t voted for them in several elections now.

            I was the one who made the big post for datahoarder to consider Lemmy as second base. Funny you are so active here.

              That’s not why I came here, though. I was active on a great many other subreddits, and I “found out” about the Fediverse through other channels. I think I recall seeing that post, now that you mention it, but as I recall I already had an account here (or perhaps on lemmy.ml, which I tried out for a bit before switching to kbin.social).

              What’s “funny” about me being so active here? I was active on lots of different subreddits on Reddit. You’re active here too apparently, is that “funny?” Honestly, I have no idea what point you’re trying to make.

      We joined a platform founded and inhabited by Marxist leninists and checks notes … Expected them to not support an authoritarian capitalist country. Is that really too much to ask?

        Glad you understand what America is, and why the Marxist-Leninist here criticize it. Welcome home.
