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”

            Let me rephrase that in a way you might better understand:

            You’re an anti-communist clown that would gladly collaborate with fascists

            In fact, you’re actively hoping for an opportunity to do so, just so you could oWn tHe tAnKiEs

            Ah shit I just said the same thing @Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net said, ah well guess there isn’t any better way to say it shrug-outta-hecks

              Today I learner that I, a far left anarchist that desires the complete abolition of state and a direct democracy of the people, is an “anti communist clown that would gladly collaborate with fascists”. And that apparently worshipping totalitarian dictatorships is the only real form of leftism and is definitely not fascism with a red coat of paint.

              In fact, you’re actively hoping for an opportunity to do so, just so you could oWn tHe tAnKiEs

              Care to show me where I ever said that?

        You don’t know shit about my political opinions

        Neither do you it seems. I’m going to assume a couple of things here, correct me if I’m wrong.

        • You live in a western country
        • you’re no older than 25
        • you’ve never read any theory. No Engels, no Marx, no Lenin, no Luxembourg, nothing.
        • you spend a lot of time watching streamers. probably v*ush, which is the only one I’ve heard of so far and god do I wish I didn’t.
        • your political and ideological views are pretty much a direct representation of the views of said streamers.
        • anything to the left of you, you consider ‘wrongthink’, and attempt to shut down your own learning process by calling everyone who says things you don’t like a tankie.
        • you don’t like tankies because they are ‘authoritarian’ but refuse to learn what the question of authority actually entails. I’ll link Engels’ ‘On authority’ so you can read that and see where we’re coming from (https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1872/10/authority.htm). There are also audiobooks because I’m assuming you won’t read this either.
        • you can’t spell ‘bourgeoisie’ without looking it up on the internet.

          • You believe that communists stabbed Makhnovia in the back

          • You believe that Makhnovia was an example of anarchist principals put into practice

          • You have no idea that the Makhnovists had a secret police, that they engaged in the summary execution of political rivals, and that committed genocidal acts against German settlers and especially Mennonites in Ukraine

          • You believe that communists stabbed the Spanish Republic in the back

          • You believe that major parts of the Spanish Republic are an example of anarchism put into practice

          • You have no idea that the Spanish Republic had forced labour camps, extreme levels of control over labourers and the movement and spending habits of the people, zero desire to lose their colonial holdings over the part of Morocco that was their colony because they aspired to colonise more of Africa and that they rejected overtures from the Moroccan people who sued for independence with very favourable conditions for the Spanish Republic, and all the apparatuses of state that you would expect from a typical government

          • You are unable to provide a functional definition of fascism without looking it up
