I have been on Lemmy since last June. I see virtually no tankie content (I stick to Lemmy.world like 99% of the time) but see long thread discussions by anti-tankies (including rants about calling progressives tankies) all the time. Just stay off lemmy.ml and lemmygrad… Problem solved.
At least with Lemmy the tankies contributed more to the world than reddit with it’s racist garbage subreddits like r/worldnews.

Lemmy.ml has one of the best meme communities on Lemmy and World News is actually usually pretty good when you don’t trigger the Tankie swarm just like the .world political communities are pretty good unless you criticize Biden, Buttigieg or other prominent neoliberals.
No problem staying away from lemmygrad, though lol
Lemmy.ml is centered on privacy and FOSS, it has a lot of leftists as well but unlike Lemmygrad Lemmy.ml isn’t explicitly Marxist-Leninist, and as such also has a ton of other types of Leftists, like Anarchists. In fact, one of the largest Anarchist communities is hosted on Lemmy.ml.
If you want to block MLs, blocking Lemmygrad is enough to get rid of 80% of them, while still giving you access to great communities on Lemmy.ml, like the News, Privacy, Linux, Memes, etc. communities.

I’m not actively trying to avoid them. I’m just saying that I don’t see any actual communist content but I see a huge number of complaints about it.
