Communism is a flavor of authoritarianism. You can't tell me that the USSR valued freedom.
Stalinists et co are not the totality of communist thought, despite how much as they tried to portray themselves as such.

Yea who cares about those little human rights violations and genocides the CCP does along the way, just sweep those under the rug!

You're a Right-wing nut job, your opinion afaic, is worth even less than the tankies. And that should tell you a lot, but I know it won't.

Mao only split from the Sovs because the Sovs became slightly less Stalinist under Khrushchev.

Only in the ways it's been implemented at the state level so far. Which, admittedly, may be the only way it can.

that is actually the reason I chose lemmy.ml
direct support from the developers is cool -
And yet, on other Lemmy instances like world, people will fight to the bitter end defending Joe Biden's policy of enabling Israel. And if you dare suggest Kamala Harris was also going to keep supporting Israel, you'll be crucified lmao.
I guess genocide is okay if it's backed by a Western power (but only if a democrat is in charge).

Nah, fuck Biden's and Harris's handling of the situation. It was a disaster and needs to be called what it is.
But I think what you are suggesting is a disingenuous interpretation of what most people were saying during the US election. No one was suggesting that Biden/Harris were good for Palestine. Only that Trump would be much, much worse. And I feel like the events of the past few weeks have validated that fear, however horrifying that is to type out.

Again, nobody's talking about the porn instance.

Switch "Republican" with "coastal elite" and "anti-CCP" with "anti-conservative" and it's the same old, tired bullshit.

Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the tankie triad?

I personally have seen nobody defending Biden's enabling of Israel, I have seen a bunch of people choosing the lesser of two evils and getting chastised over it as if there was a magical third option (abstaining just enables trump stfu)
