Suffice to say, if you’ve read this reply then you’ve read approximately half of the replies in this thread. Communism is basically when a bunch of horrible shit happens to millions of peaceful anticommunists innocents for no apparent reason (and it gets communister and communister the more it happens)? Check. Anticommunism suspiciously going unmentioned, but somebody implicitly inviting others to it anyway? Check. Gusanos boneheadedly ignoring those inconvenient communist Easterners and Southerners (because they’re either ‘nonexistent’ or ‘irrelevant’ for one reason or another)? Check. Leftoid noobs who can’t defend socialism worth a damn from this Anti‐Bolshevik Bloc of Nations? Check. You get the picture, but here are a few of my ‘favorite’ replies:

Nobody whose family was slaughtered by the USSR wants to listen to some random asshole on the internet rant about what communism actually is, even if that random asshole is technically correct.

they’re embracing nomenclature and iconography of a movement that basically made my country into the mess it is today and done so much insane evil…

my vietnamese grandma, my mom, and the rest our family escaped south vietnam during the war caused by the soviet union and others.

Opposing communism doesn’t mean you’re automatically capitalist… [+31]

The last one, especially. It’s an obnoxiously pedantic observation that ignores the more obvious conclusion: opposing communism makes you an anticommunist. Either way, I do find it interesting how nobody in that thread mentioned anticommunism by name. The logic behind this, I think, is that if gusanos were forced to evaluate atrocities that other anticommunists like Pinochet and Suharto caused, they’d drop the woe‐is‐me, Mr. Nice Guy act pretty quickly.

    Do not care gusanos, did not ask homonationalists, you may eat your teeth with your brunch liberalism :) The only way forward for LGBT people globally is communism

      For anyone who wonders what “lifestylism” is, this is the most perfect example I’ve ever seen. Literally nothing matters politically except the way I identify and the way people see me. What the symbols actually represent doesn’t matter, it’s all part of a vague “anti-fascist” aesthetic, anyway.

      Brunch Queers™ always show themselves to be collaborators in the end. Why I stopped liaising even physically with gays who give off petit-boug vibes, white or otherwise. The only gays I have time for are preferably non-white and mandatorily original punk/anticapitalist-adjacent if not full-blown radicalizing.

            Ah I just meant it as “LGBT Westerners (read compradors)”, referring to a specific subsection of westerners that are diaspora and weaponise their country of origin to fuel regime change propaganda.

    I agree that the angle of attack here is to conflate them with other anti-communists and their terrible track records. It’s the best way to expose the ugliness of their politics; to put them in a position where they either defend the likes of Augusto Pinochet and Suharto or else concede that this kind of politics is abhorrent.

    Morality is simply a talking point to a great many of these people. Take that away from them and you expose them for what they really are. The bleeding hearts will relent, while the true anti-communists will show their real face, like in the example you’ve linked above.
