    Aside from this being easier to stack being anon instead of account linked this is fun. I suppose if you get a bunch of wreckers youll see when they responded and just just prune the data

    I dont think this'll be as neatly representative as doing it by hand, but also maybe itll account for lurkers (hey, we see you, join us, it is inevitable)

    I cant wait to make another 'are you a tankie?' On lemmy.ml

    Leaving all of them is in itself a human impact on the environment, you wouldnt find a single maple in a forest, but you also wouldnt find a field in a forest. if youre concerned about bugs I'd still be removing at least some leaves

    really theyre a resource I'd collect them for compost heaps

    Pretty sure most people on the planet are not participating in the next usaian election, and we're all in trouble for it. I'd vote PSL if I could.

    There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.

    A friend of mine's parents took that approach and they never got the 'santa' deal. Presents just came from their parents. Theyre turned out a communist, im not sure its related

    What is an army?

    the state as an entity exists to prevent the outbreak of class war, it regularly does this violently, and people are often killed without the need for the death penalty.

    You should read Lenin's State and Revolution, at least the first chapter

  • !asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - *informal poll results* ~ ::: spoiler 😱 *A ridiculous question. “Tankie” isn’t a term anyone self-identifies with, it’s mostly a term used by liberals to hurl at anyone to the left of them or anyone who agrees with western foreign policy. The survey results will be as meaningless as the term “tankie” itself.* ::: *Image description:* A5 page, with various pie charts and text, indicating the results of an informal poll from lemmy.ml, full image text in spoiler ::: spoiler *full image text* ARE TANKIES TAKING CONSPIRING TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BAD TIME ON LEMMY.ML ?? HEXBEAR.NET DOES THE WORK FOR YOU!! WE ASKED !asklemmy@lemmy.ml ARE YOU A TANKIE? > First stack of pie charts shows the yes / no split, highlights that the lemmy.ml yes responses made up less than half of the yes votes, hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml only made up a small portion, some hexbear-ians even vote no\ > second and third pie charts show the yes votes, and no votes by instance respectively\ > third stacked pie chart shows the yes / no split by instance, overlay-ed with the total yes / no votes > only top level comments were counted\ > tankies are closer than they appear\ > Deeply unserious\ > NDTS ::: ::: spoiler *full results / data* ``` COUNTA of yes @lemmy.ml = 10 @lemmygrad.ml = 5 @lemmy.world = 3 @lemmy.zip = 1 @hexbear.net = 3 @lemmy.sdf.org = 1 @lemmy.one = 1 Grand Total = 24 COUNTA of no @lemmy.ml = 2 @lemm.ee = 2 @lemmy.world = 8 @lemmy.blahaj.zone = 1 @reddthat.com = 1 @ttrpg.network = 1 @hexbear.net = 4 @lemmy.jhjacobs.nl = 1 Grand Total = 20 taken from archived post https://archive.md/AAY1L ``` ::: this was fun, thanks for the polling idea, Kristina (I spent too long on these charts because yours looked so spiffy, I hope you *specifically* are impressed lol), solidarity cleaning that data up, and general reminder people only half read anything before launching into a diatribe # tl:dr yes, tankies are *totally conspiring* to make sure you have a bad time on lemmy.ml ![specter](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/21cc1c9e-a466-42f4-a06e-8844db966f26.png "emoji specter")
