On lemmy.world I posted a comment on how liberals use ‘tankie’ as an invective to shut down dialogue and received tons of hateful replies. I tried to respond in a rational way to each. Someone’s said ‘get educated’ I responded ‘Im reading Norman Finkelstein’s I’ll burn that bridge when I get there’ and tried to keep it civil.

They deleted every comment I made and banned me. Proving my point, they just want to shut down dialogue. Freedom of speech doesn’t existing in those ‘totalitarian’ countries right? But in our ‘enlightened’ western countries we just delete you.

    You’re not here for a dialogue, you’re here because of a nagging sense of being complicit in something monstrous that compels you to justify your shallow beliefs and corrosive way of life by spewing half-digested propaganda at people discussing the problem.

      Ahaha I wish you could read this from my perspective. You guys are so funny desperately trying to prove I’m a fascist/lib/nazi.

      All the baseless assumptions you need to make to keep your blissfully “I’m the hero and everyone else is dumb” mindset.

      Its just comedy gold
