The DM was a DM asking us to change our no tankies policy and remove the fuck tankies banner as it was apparently upsetting hexbear users. Apparently tankies view the word tankie as a form of slur. The admin wants us to ally as a form of "left solidarity"

Just go to hexbear.net for 5 minutes and you will see that it is full of people going "CCP/Russia/North Korea is based"

Nobody there says modern Russia is "based"

WRT the DPRK I highly recommend educating yourself on the Korean war starting with the podcast Blowback.
