I don’t think tinwhiskers has problems with communists. If they had problem with communists, they would surely have said “communists”.
They said “tankies”. I am more inclined to suggest their issue is with tankies, not communists.

It actually kinda does ruin something. Beehaw was setting itself up to have the defacto communities for a bunch of topics.
Urgh, but that’s gross and power-trippy.
That seemed to be a situation where the head mod was going against the wishes of the other mods. Not sure how I feel about it, personally, but it’s not quite as simple as “Spez made the subreddit open against the wishes of everyone involved”.
Yeah… There’s better ways to communicate that, guys.
Honestly, that Microsoft has to touch on that at all shows how badly Bethesda has managed their reputation over the decades.
You have to do the former, regardless of if you do the latter.
The issue I have is that it isn’t really compatible with the idea of having a big social media network. If they wanted to make a “safe space”, well, doing that via Lemmy – or any federated platform – wasn’t the right choice.
It’d be like trying to make a “safe space” on Reddit. The idea just doesn’t make sense. It’s too inherently open, too public, for that to be viable.
