Damn, in the comments people are suggesting switching to domains like tankie.cn or tankie.su ?

They are really trying to positively reclaim the word tankie aren’t they?

    I have a hard time taking authoritarians seriously, whether they are left wing or right wing.

    Don't get me wrong, sinophobia or russophobia for the sake of it is just dumb, but like the other guy said, if we get banned for having a different opinion on those country's dictators than they do... Maybe they should just stay in their safe space by themselves, isolated. Just like Russia and China should be sanctioned and isolated for their imperialist bullshit, and just like America should be for its imperialist bullshit.

    Also, if they adopt a .cn tld, they'll lose their domain name again. Not even China wants anything to do with them, hexbear was blocked in China haha.

    Note your standard search function won't work from the home location bc the new instance isn't federated yet.

    Would make blocking their users a lot easier, at least! It's like self-reporting that you're not to be taken seriously.
