  • I’m not suggesting anything. I’m pointing out a bias: eventhough fascism is rampant in the west, to the point there was a coop attempt in the US a few years ago. Yet people on lemmy are very hard fighting tankies where ever they can find them, even baiting with anti-tankie memes on a very regular basis.

    Tankies are not treated like fascists. There is a war waged against them on lemmy eventhough tankies don’t exist in the west.

    Tankies don’t exist in the west because, as it was said, tankies and fascists are the same kind of extremists, but in the west we have fascists already. You don’t have both tankies and fascists in the same place.

    So here we are, with western people on the hunt against tankies. To me they are fascists waging a cultural war on social media.

    The nature of a social network is to become big enough to attract most people or to stay a niche community.

    But the process takes time. Right now the niche expanded significantly, but didn’t reach the critical mass yet.

    How the dynamic happens though is still mysterious. Accessibility is the first and most important feature though. Then, you need to keep up with the time and innovations, but it might be hard to see.

    IMO the focus should be accessibility. Which will become difficult because elitist asshats are already fighting against growing the community, and accessibility is the easiest place for gatekeeping.
