I know they’ve always been on Lemmy, but it seems like the past few weeks it’s slowly increasing, making me want to just stay on beehaw /local. Showing up on more communities, even on instances that ban that type of trolling explicitly.

Anyone else notice this?

Note: When I’m saying Tankie here, I’m not referring to far leftists, socialists, anti-capitalists, etc. I’m talking about trolls that act leftist but their actual intent is to cause infighting and support authoritarian regimes. Sealioning, all that stuff.

    Block all Tankies and move on. They’re not real people with real viewpoints. There is no point in conversing with them.

      I don’t want to block them, I want to get them out of the fediverse. Lemmy will fail if it can’t get rid of the extremist political propaganda.
