PRIMARY VERIFICATION QUESTIONS

1-I heard it was a “tankie” wiki, so I came to start a discussion.

2-Social Democracy/Democratic Socialism. I believe that a bloody revolution and dictatorship of the proletariat are unnecessary and even counter-productive to our goals of a more egalitarian and compassionate society.

3-I disagree with your support of socialist dictatorships. “Dictatorships of the proletariat” are often smokescreens for tyranny in the name of socialism, with China and North Korea, in addition to being totalitarian state capitalist and Orwellian monarcho-theocratic regimes respectfully, not even calling themselves Marxist-Leninist. In addition, your support of theocratic and kleptocratic states because they “oppose NATO imperialism” is nonsensical, especially when Russia and China also engage in imperialist escapades, both beyond their borders and inside them (in the form of cultural genocide).

4-I support LGBTQIA+.

5-Stalin and Mao were totalitarian tyrants with a red coat of paint.

6-China is more capitalist than the Nordic countries and North Korea is an unholy hybrid of Orwellian dystopia, fascist state, fundamentalist theocracy, absolute monarchy and Kool-Aid-chugging cult. I haven’t heard much about the others.

SECONDARY VERIFICATION QUESTIONS

2-A non-AuthSoc/“tankie” perspective to start discussions over.

3-I think Native Americans should be allowed to return to their ancestral lands, and be given more rights.

4-I dont know about Marxist-Feminism, but I am a feminist myself.

5-Nonononono. No breaking up families to raise kids in Huxleyan labs, if that’s what you’re implying.

6-I’m not sure. For Singapore, shifting the PAP back towards it’s SocDem, roots. For the UK, fixing the Conservative mess. For Hong Kong, liberating it from Chinese control.

7-I don’t quite see much of one, apart from, like, neo-feudalists (fuck feudalists).

8-Both sides need to find peace. Hamas and the current Israeli administration are both just making things worse.

      I was so sure it had to be one of my countrymen, but there you go. I guess we all have more in common than we believe, and here I thought I was progressive enough already. Sarcasm (obviously?), but I’m new to Lemmy so I thought I’d make it clear, I’m always a bit paranoid about sarcasm when writing on forums and social media.
