Oi @[email protected] ! Are you one of the Reddit Piracy mods? Or are one of your brethren here from Reddit?

I must say I find Piracy, Linux and the Star Trek communities have had a rip-roaringly successful switch over.

I much prefer Lemmy. I have the opportunity to call you a "dick head" whereas on Reddit there's no way Spez would ever see me calling him a "dick head".

That makes me feel powerful and I become engorged.

So, anyway, are you one of the Reddit mods?

P.S. I can't post to this community from Lemmy.World.

Thats because they're reddit-brained over there too

Coming from a Stalinist russaboo, that's something, I guess.

Are you a fan of the IS-2 tank?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I'm more a fan of the T-34 followed by the Sherman if we're talking about ww2 tanks. Whats your favorite tank, you Trotskyite limey?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh I love Soviet and German tanks from WWII most of all so I'm a big fan of the IS-2 and T-34 for Soviets and the Panzer IV, Sturmgeschütz III and Tiger I for Germans.

I build 1:35 scale models and my last build was an Elefant.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

Well that's a fun hobby. I used to make model planes when I was a child. I recall making a P-38 and an A-10 before entering junior high but then never really getting into it again.

Why the T-34? Of all tanks. Any particular variant or just any T-34?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm particular to the T-34-85 variant.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, I can’t fault you for that one. If you were going to hit me with a 1942-43 variant, I might have tried to persuade you to the 85. That’s a badass T-34. The rest of them are garbage imo

Reddit does not tolerate Russophilia of any sort. Like China mentioning the most benign cultural things about it gets brigaded.

They're obsessed with shit like at the end of Band of Brothers when they respect the Nazi general bc he's also part of the military & how Hitler could have won on half the history subs. AskHistorians is okay

You are the Redditor. Good day sir! Harrumph!

Let's not judge people only from the instance they're registered on.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

True, it's not right to call lemmy.world users "reddit-brained".

Strange, there are quite a few comments from that instance

I think I'm connecting from lemmy.world right now
