It unfortunately is very much the intent, but they don’t want to say that up front because no one would join.

Honestly they don’t seem to be bothered about denying human rights violations they seem to think they’re a good thing.

People as deep into the ideology as people on here are think the dog whistles are signposts.

Most Reddit posts referring to lemmy direct people to lemmy.ml it’s effectively the landing page of the platform and if that landing page is being used to recruit people into a shitty authoritarian ideology then that taints the entire platform.

Just a thought, maybe it came with the fawning over of Putin and the CCP?

Follow the link, that’s happening on lemmy.ml not lemmygrad.ml.

Follow the link and tell me that isn’t straight up blur the lines recruitment BS.

This is happening on lemmy.ml I can cope with there being instances for tankies, what’s bothering me is one of the main instances pretending their not so that they can push straight up recruitment shit at people who don’t know.

I’m on another instance but it’s making me rather uncomfortable that a lot of the traffic is happening on an instance that seems like it’s 90 CCP members and Russian trolls.

The way things are on there I can’t even tell if this is just a joke.

People aren’t shouting “tankie” at you. You people are self identifying as tankies.

Very clearly not history books.

WFT is wrong with you?

Great list. And the first Talos principle was great (DLC less so). Also the ending had a great build up to the end, but the actual end cutscene was a little meh.

Plus the 1991 game Lemmings.

This type of advertising is the death-knell of any site, because at that point you’re interacting with an advert with some extra elements rather than a site with ads.

Soma is great. I suspect this one is more gameplay focused than narrative focused though.

I’m playing signals. At the moment, it seems good. From what I’ve played it’s more trippy horror than horror horror.

I second Alien Isolation, it’s still very good.

Played Amnesia Rebirth, which is pretty hated. I didn’t hate it but it was obviously doing a lot of work to fill out lore for a game that I hadn’t played.

Embrace extend extinguish.

I would rather they fix the multiplayer code for Deathloop - that’s horribly broken, but the game is good.
