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”

      Anti-communism is an open door to fascism. Vulgar anti-communism IS fascism.

      The Soviet Union and The People’s Republic of China are #1 and #2 for the greatest reductions in poverty and improvements to living standards in human history.

        I’m a socialist you fucking loser. Shut the fuck up and think before assuming I’m a fascist for disagreeing with you.

        The Soviet Union and The People’s Republic of China are #1 and #2 for the greatest reductions in poverty and improvements to living standards in human history.

        HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

          Did I say you were a fascist? I said that anti-communism leaves the door open to fascists. And I said that ideologically vulgar anti-communism is the underpinning of fascism. These are both true. If you make your community about anti-communism, fascists will come. And fascism gains power when the capitalist class is in crisis and chooses a less profitable closed society that keeps the left in check rather than see their power realistically challenged.

          You can laugh all you want at easily researched facts but they’re still true. China. I’ll edit when I find one for the USSR that isn’t a lecture or a book, but in the meantime reflect on how they went from feudal farmers to the first people in space within a generation yuri Oh. And they did it without the stolen wealth of entire continents in the southern hemisphere.

                He would actually put me in a gulag for being queer, an anarchist, and an Esperantist; but if historical revisionism is what helps you sleep at night, you do you.

                  Maybe anarchists shouldn’t have murdered Bolsheviks and attempted to enact terror plots against the Soviet Union and they wouldn’t have gotten liquidated by the USSR?

                  Just sayin’

                    It’s funny how you use the word “murder” to describe the anarchists’ killing and then switch to a euphemism (“liquidate”) the second you talk about the USSR’s killing.

                    Shows how completely brainwashed you are.
