Why was my post removed?

This community does not allow tankies, platforming tankies, or whitewashing tankies. Lemmy has an actual tankie problem given that the actual devs are tankies and their servers are filled with tankies.

The comments in that post were filled with a lot of defense of authoritarianism and as such it was removed because I am very very tired of tankies who absolutely love worming their way into leftist spaces and talk about how all states are auth and about leftist unity while denying genocides, imperialism, defending oppressing workers rights, and other human rights abuses. Can they please stop posting here. The banner literally says fuck tankies.

Edit: Which is to say I removed it because it was clearly not correct as evidenced by the comments in that post. I could have replied or something but there were a lot of comments to deal with.

If you take a peek at the modlog of this community, you will see that there is a lot of tankies actually. The mods may be slightly trigger happy sometimes, but generally i think they are doing a good job.

I’d def pref the mods to nuke a few extra comments than let the tankies work their way in.

They thrive on being on the edge of acceptable until they can drive a “holdomir didn’t happen, Ukrainians just forgot how to eat” into a community

Edit: that edge of acceptability they skirt to get into communities makes it hard for people to discern if just close or it’s actually proto-tankie-posting

theres more talk of tankies than there are tankies

Let's keep it that way.

Issue is, tankies like to sabotage the left to "ensure purity in thought".

I don't know how it was the tankies who got triggered by that meme when if anything, I would expect some liberals to take it the wrong way. I guess they thought they could work their way in here with the post, or maybe they just hate worker ownership like ML countries cracking down on unions, or maybe the word "leftist" just causes them to come out of the woodwork.
