    …yet again and again “big tents” and “leftist solidarity” serves to promote literal nazi propaganda.

    This reminds me of something I’ve seen said in western left online spaces a lot. Who else has ever come across the trope of “left unity commumity gets couped by tankies and they purge all the non tankies and now it’s a tankie community”? I’ve seen this said a lot by radlibs.

    Who has ever actually seen this happen, though? I sure as hell haven’t. My experience with left unity spaces is that the opposite happens: “anti-authoritarians” become mods and suppress the “tankies”. The only place I know of where this isn’t the case is Hexbear, and even there the userbase is feisty enough that bans and removal of posts/comments happen often.

      This never happened. What happend once or twice was that ML’s win in the struggle sessions* upon which infantile disorder types left, loudly screaming and spreading that idiotic “stab in the back” legend.

      What happend a lot of times is exactly what you wrote in the second paragraph.

      *most famous example, GenZedong in the first days of Ukraine War. It got quarantined few days later in i’m sure neat coincidence.
