      This is one of the many things that drives me crazy about living here. I know that the majority of people here are going to call me liberal when they find out I’m a fucking socialist because that is what they’ve been trained to think is “the left”.

    Boy, he sure showed us.

    See, that’s the great thing about being an anticommie: you can make up whatever shit you want and still be taken seriously.

      You should see Romania. So many anticommunist “historians”

      — And then the evil communists rigged the election and also robbed everyone!!!

      — And your source is?

      — This totally real secret communist document that said “haha, we’ve rigged the election and we’re going to rob everyone,” that just happened to spontaneously combust in my hands

        It’s exactly the same in all postsocialist countries. They REALLY fear the truth, even after such a long time.

    The fact that this guy used to call himself “a leftist” and was part of the Young Turks “Progressive” Network is a testament to how reactionary and right wing these so called “US leftists” are.

      Didn’t the Young Turks shill for Clinton in 2016? I vaguely recall hearing about them for the first time around then. Correct me if I am wrong, please.

        Ofc they did, they are your generic prodemocrat US liberal. They are antichina, antirussia, antiran, antiassad, etc. They had Adrian Zenz on as an “independent expert” on the uyghur genocide. They called Richard Medhurst a “Assad puppet propagandist”. Literal imperialist shills.

    The right 101

    Human nature is selfish and evil… We should let everybody have guns

    The government shouldn’t decide over me… Abortion should be illegal

    Monopolies are the governments’ fault… We should approve laws to restrict them

    Taxation is theft… We should go fund a war abroad

    Every human live is precious… We should absolutely impose the death penalty

    What a master debater. I wish I could master debate this hard. In fact, I’m going to practice my master debater skills all night long! I hope to be as good in master debating as Dave one day.

    Is the Liberals making up imaginary contradictions in their strawmaning with the ‘what if Leftists follow our constant redefinition of words and our reframing of arguments in fake context’ and the ‘what if all people with leftist self-identification are one homogenous hivemind’?
