Welcome ex-Redditors!

The politics community on world is even more rabid and unconstructive than the Reddit equivalent
-
Ok man, you do you.
I checked you profile, in 4 months you have 3 times the comments I wrote in 3 years and you answered my comment within 1 minute.
I strongly suggest a healthy cure of touching grass.Drag suggests you learn what a dude, guy, or man is, and why perhaps you shouldn't call strangers those words, especially after investigating their profiles and most likely realising they're nonbinary.

"Tankie" is a pejorative that basically looks like an exact replica of McCarthy's strawman of a Communist. The purpose of the term is to claim the accused that they genuinely hold those McCarthyian characteristics, regardless of reality. It shuts down conversation because it would be inconvenient to have those conversations, it's a thought-terminating cliché more than a real thing.
-
Okay bro wtf is that wall of text. They're all communist, full stop. Trying to label them something else doesn't change the fact that communism is a political system for psychopaths

Of course drag isn't inviting to sealion, drag is gish-galloping and isn't interested in any conversation. drag has proven this, from defending Nazi-led pograms as "true revolution" to pretending Marx was an Anarchist and wanted full decentralized horizontalism, rather than full centralization and democratization as industry gets ever more complex.
drag is therefore either uninterested in genuine conversation, or is a troll.

I have to ask, are shitlibs aware that Wikipedia isn't divine gospel, and that there are other works in the history of humanity? Because it seems to inevitably be their one and only go to, which is particularly embarrassing given that even a middle school teacher could tell you that it's not a good source. Even worse, it doesn't' even back up your claim!
I get more and more liberal every time I see some self-described leftist call people a shitlib because they’re slightly right of Pol Pit or whatever.

Best I can do is act like a slashdotter:
This general idea has already failed elsewhere. What you want can't work.
Just point me to the Natalie Portman and hot grits.

I'm aware that to the far left everyone who doesn't want to abolish capitalism is considered right wing. I mean the normal (Dutch) political spectrum. Social democratic
I'm kinda far left myself, I think capitalism is a pretty cool guy

Well that's a pretty stupid reason to change your political beliefs.

I’m not changing it just reinforcing it.

I caught a 7 day ban in microblog memes for "whataboutism" after I pointed out that leftists were not responsible for the democrat's loss, their actions would have been wildly unpopular whether we told them or not.

In Canada, we have a conservative named Pierre Poilievre that makes nonsensical catch phrases like that every month or so. Kinda reminds me of that

You cannot make this shit up.
Really? Seems like you can and did.

Huh, that sounds pretty bad, let me look that up. Oh wait, it's a total lie.
My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.
"It came from the statement made in the thread that hexbear was 'aggressively pro-trans,' which seemed quite disgusting and fetishizing to me. This aligns with the rest of the authoritarian theme of the instance, you might say, having the perspective that one must make a superhuman effort to allow a minority to use a space."

I'm sorry, I wasn't intentionally trying to misgender you, in my native language the equivalent of "dude" is gender neutral.
But you know what is internationally considered rude and uneducated? Focusing on small details of what someone says to devert from the main argument. Also referring to oneself in third person... -
"tankie" is so broadly defined that it also includes anarchists and non-western liberals.
I'm referring to what they said, not some other insult.

Don't worry Redditors.. it's the same "the Right sucks, and the Left can do no wrong" rhetoric you hear over there...
