        Seriously, the OP over there is genuinely deranged.

        Like what the fuck is even going on here:

        I hesitate to call them tankies because they don’t follow the same ideals. These people deride ‘the libs’ but engage in liberalism, calling themselves lgbtq friendly, then they call themselves communist but engage in materialism, they call themselves socialist but agree with authoritarianism.

        I don’t know what to call them besides fascist, but fascist is so non-specific when dealing with these groups that it doesn’t help for identification. We actually need a new name for this group of fascists.

          Liberals are famously LGBTQ friendly, and not the types of absolute clowns who make me want to yell “God, can you people please just stop circumlocuting and just call me a slur already? You’re clearly about to have an aneurysm from not being permitted to call me [redacted] over my preferred pronouns.”

          And materialism famously has no place in communism, which is why Marx described dialectical vibesism in such depth in his magnum opus, Das Lemmypost; and socialism is fundamentally opposed to any and all authoritarian measures, because the ruling class famously just gives up its power when it’s asked very very nicely.

            That’s why Disney is celebrating its 25th time ever LGBTQIA+ character that can be plausibly-deniably dialed back in interpretation and/or outright edited out of the feature entirely. capitalist-woke

              Of course if you bring this up to a liberal they’ll insist it only happens because of the evil dastardly CCP who hate gays too much for Disney to do more, but also Disney is thoroughly owned by the CCP because they want money

              Or something

          I thought the whole point of the tankie pejorative in the past few years was to call actual communists muh redfash.

            The great thing about the word “tankie” is that it can mean anything you want.

            Your neighbour who mowes their lawn at seven every sunday morning? Tankie.

            That squirrel that keeps raiding your birdfeeder? Tankie.

            Your wife wants a divorce? She’s literally Stalin.

    Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies.

    They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. sartre-pipe

    I can’t believe Lemmygrad is so weird, who answers their door while holding a book? Like, just put it down somewhere. I guess it’s a solid excuse to tell the .world Nazi to get off your porch.

    o7 to the .ee poster (maybe not, now that I look closer their username is a bit sus). If grad was really calling for “race-based nuclear holocaust”, shouldn’t they be able to present evidence? That whole thread is filled with some absolutely wild takes.

    It is telling that they can’t even point to the meme posadism and xi-plz stuff facetiously. It isn’t even that hard to cherry pick stuff from here or Lemmygrad and bring it completely out of context to ‘prove their point’.
