lemmy.ml Tankies (beehaw.org)

There are a lot of tanky posts coming from lemmy.ml. Their whole purpose seems to be to troll and spread their bullshit far and wide. They are nearly as bad as the alt-right. They argue in bad faith and celebrate authoritarian oppression. The beehaw mods might want to consider defederating.

Like I found Reddit's far right problem annoying, I find the tankies and the libs on Lemmy to be frustrating, especially on meme pages for whatever reason. This instance does a good job at keeping the transphobes off but my personal preference would be to stop seeing crap posts defending the state, whatever it calls itself.
