lemmygrad is full of full-on tankies, the type who would willingly send birthday greetings to comrade Stalin while imprisoned in a gulag, lemmy.ml once was a default instance and thus has random folks on it but is admin-wise run by tankies and generally seems to serve as the preferred instance for lemmygrad folks to have alts on. Stay away from political communities there e.g. their worldnews community is a silly place. Hexbear is hit and miss, not so much hardened tankies there but wokescolds and random lefties who don’t quite realise who they associate with, why that kind of social dynamics is no good. Might have some inane takes, occasionally prone to dogpiling, but at least you can have a conversation with them.

Using alt-right terminology should get you disqualified from any reasonable conversation.

What, the term “tankie”? A term coined within the Communist Party of Great Britain? The CPGP is alt-right, now?

Calling the term “alt-right” is just a quick way of telling me you’re a tankie without telling me you’re a tankie.

Oh. “wokescold” is another possibility but that’s rather unlikely, while the right has appropriated “woke” I’ve never heard them use “wokescold” which is precisely used by people who know and understand the original meaning and simply want to call out certain problematic behaviours done in the name of, but not to the benefit of, wokeness.

Don’t fucking bullshit me, we both know that I was referring to wokescold. Tankie is a horrible fucking word but it way predates the alt-right.
