The Fediverse is huge and overwhelming to a newcomer, with many different types and each with servers to pick from. Which ones would you suggest checking out or avoiding?

Well yeah it does, you’re on lemmy.world which sometimes has a lot of Zionist apologia. In most online political spaces, the🔻symbol is a reference to videos from Hamas where they would overlay a similar red triangle over an Israeli soldier/tank/military target before it gets hit.
I guess it’s still germane to my point, though. If you do think Hamas is cool because you hate the genocidal regime of Israel, that makes you a “tankie” or at least comparable to one in the eyes of most anticommunists. Functionally, the people who actually will fight “tankies” (as in communists) area also the people who will put you in a camp for being anti-zionist or having other left wing positions.
you’re reading too far into it my dude.
Fuck ALL genocidal regiems.
I use the red triangle specifically for my own fictional lore. Fuck everyone else ruining my day.
That’s ok, forget the red triangle. That’s fine. I’m saying that you’re loudly voicing your opposition to “tankies” but if you despise all genocidal regimes you are a tankie yourself.
the fuck are you saying that’s fucking insane
Did you read my comments above? I explained the reasoning. If you’re anti-zionist you’re a “tankie” to most anticommunists, they don’t care that you consider yourself different to the other kinds of leftists. At the end of the day we’ll be sent to the same camp.
If you subscribe to a more specific definition of “tankie” it’s probably better to just say what you mean explicitly.
How about I just call you out as gods damned insane
Liberals when anyone disagrees with them: “you’re mentally disabled”
Can we slow down? I don’t really get what you disagree with me about.
You’re insisting that I like genocide
No, you got it backwards. I’m saying that your positions make you a tankie because you oppose genocide. I’m praising you!
