    If you’re mad at lemmy.ml users for doing those specific, detestable things, why not make make the meme to be about lemmy.ml users doing those specific, detestable things instead of any lemmy.ml user making any comment?

      yeah uh, that’s the joke. That’s the obviously implication of the joke here.

      That’s like saying that “all murderers are bad” and then me going “well hey don’t you think is a little bit broad of a generalization? And unfair to people who were unfairly charged, or perhaps in inconvenient but justified circumstances?”

      You could make the meme say “lemmy.ml tankies running free posting tankie bullshit” but that doesn’t roll as well as “lemmy.ml doing tankie things because lemmy.ml seems to have no problem with tankies existing”

        It did neither of those things though, so that’s irrelevant. It just says it’s a comment.

      1. I actually didn’t make this meme, I cross posted it from someone else on [email protected]

      2. It’s not like it’s a minority of users on .ml doing it that the admins/mods just haven’t brought the ban hammer down on. The admins are part of the problem along with mods cultivate the toxic tankie culture that gets shit on. It’s the non-tankie .ml users who are in the minority, they should have chosen a better crowd to hang with.
