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

                  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

                  Eat shit

                  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?

          Where are all the Native Americans, dronie?

          The sparrows were considered a pest and the policy to exterminate them was clearly a bad one, but you know what? Trying to exterminate pests that you see eating your food and having it backfire isn’t exactly a deliberate crime against humanity. Compare with capitalism which actually is implicated by famines of greed like Bengal and Ireland.

          Why did the US exterminate the buffalo? Were they eating your food? Were you trying to increase the food supply when you were doing it? Or were you trying to starve an entire continent of people so you could kick over their last dying armies and fertilize your crops with their remains?

            The native Americans were not seen as citizens at that time. They were driven out. This was reprehensible.

            Fyi this is how all territory, on the planet, was acquired.

            Remember ghengis Khan? The whole shape of China is the result of MASSIVE imperialism and conquest. Neither ghengis (or the many other conquesting leaders of China, including mao) or Jackson are alive now, so their actions are historical in nature.

            The difference is china did that to their own people, through incompetence, not though land acquisition.

            Be clear: I’m not advocating imperialism, but there is a certain difference between killing millions of people through displacement, and killing millions of YOUR OWN PEOPLE through idiocy.

            Especially since the four pests campaign occurred less than 100 years ago.

            Also great whataboutism, I never claimed america was the gold standard, only that china and the Soviet union certainly don’t own the crown.

            Edit: “lol ghengis Khan old” yeah, he’s dead and so are his “voters”. So is Andrew Jackson and his “voters”.

            Edit edit: don’t decry me for being “jingoistic” in a thread where I called a guy out for simping for a nation state in the first place.
