I would’ve bought that a few months ago, but considering that Unruffled has since done a 180 on such issues like “Does Critical Support for the PRC make someone a tankie?”, I’m disinclined to give them the benefit of the doubt. Using the preferred terminology of tankies when not talking to tankies, and when talking to someone who is anti-tankie in a bid to get them to accept tankies, is extremely questionable. Saying that the frequency is greater also suggests that it’s not absolute size of problematic users that’s being discussed.

That they assert that anarchists should have more in common with a red fascist instance than ‘liberal’ instances (which are far to the left of what most actual liberals would accept) is also telling.

Also, considering Hexbear’s extremely aggressive posture, trying to portray them as ‘less problematic’ than .world or SJW is extremely questionable.

But I’m sure the commenter who has ‘never seen a tankie’ on Lemmy and constantly licks Russian imperialist boots and plays apologist for Ukrainian genocide is posting entirely in good faith. :)
