!asklemmy@lemmy.ml - ARE YOU A TANKIE? - informal poll results ~

😱

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.

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

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

    Downvotes are for rule breaking content, not for covering your big feelings.

    You’re wrong about that. There’s the report button for that.

    By the way, I did not down-vote you, but about the criticism towards your work, yes, the info-graphics isn’t well done, because you crammed all that in one single image. I was able to read it, but it was painful.

    Another concern is the small dataset. It is in two digits, which isn’t a proper representation of the general consensus.

      Maybe we should ask the admins to send out a survey to capture a more general consensus as possible, sounds reasonable and within the scope of a meme post. Also how was OP supposed to post two separate images when Lemmy doesn’t support multi-image posts? Was clicking on the image to enlarge it not an option for you?
