Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- Be civil and no bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. For a more general community [email protected] is recommended.

But, I never understand. Why would anyone use Lemmy or any social media at work? I am Teen. So, really asking.
You have to be 18 to access lemmy.world (which this thread is on) per Rule #3 of their ToS BTW. That's technically still a teenager so maybe you are of-age, but wanted to mention it.
I am on lemm.ee which allow user over 16. So, I am safe I guess? It doesn't even matter I am gonna Turn 18 this July.
This particular thread is hosted on lemmy.world and you must be 18+ to access it.
NSFW stands for "not safe for work" - the label literally exists so that users know what to avoid to make the service usable at work without risk of getting fired over it.
And why wouldn't you want to use it at work? Breaks are a thing, many people try to spend them trying to recharge by doing something that takes them out of the work mindset for a bit, and Lemmy is perfect for that.
Yes. It's not really exclusively about work, though. It applies to families, public transit, anywhere someone might see your screen. It's not a nudity or gore tag, but a sort of inoffensively presentable content tag. The office screen mentality is just a good way to get the right idea across.
Also, "better safe than sorry" is a good mentality. It's better to over tag than under.
