Anti-communism is an orthodoxy. If facts do not conform to it, they will alter the facts

Keep repeating liberal dogma and ignoring the billions of death caused by capitalism by the same metrics

this is laughably utopian and ahistorical, i’m sorry but this is fantasy. There’s a reason that the “violent” and “authoritarian” communists have actually won and seized power while the utopian eurocommies have never accomplished a single thing.

Your nation has never successfully had a revolution. They need to be listening and learning from those that have, following their example, and not trying to invent their own perfect (white) system from whole cloth

intellectual elitism like “people should defend themselves”

How you going to seize the means of productions and depose the capitalists without using weaponry?

i’m as left as they come but I think Israel should “clear out” Gaza and that Trump makes some good points about woke going too far

Nope, Liberalism is the “center” of the modern world in that it’s the default status quo position and ideology of the ruling class.

no no no. Left is when you love democracy and freedom and liberty and rightwing is when you love authority and disciplined organizations.

How do you get from “never critique anything” to “I can be an anti-communist ideologue”?

lmao

anti-communism is always fascist. When you engage in “tankie punching” you engage in fascist anti-communism

all “right wing opinions” are dogshit

Yes, seriously. Liberals love vaguely coded moralisms and ideals, but they never specify what they mean systematically. America is more “authoritarian” by any definition I can conceive due to its hundreds year history of slavery, imperialist war and mass incarceration than any other country on earth

America is the most authoritarian nation in human history

They have the highest incarceration rate of all time, and have destroyed the sovereignty of billions of people

probably not, it’s too online and embarrassing an they’ve already built up enough propaganda around “communist” and “authoritarian” to drop those terms. Mainstream Liberals love being taken seriously. It’s only online they will lower themselves.

The average lib who uses tankie has no idea of its origins, and it’s origins are now so irrelevant as it has nothing to do with the groups that are labeled. Only liberals bring up the Hungary thing instead of discussing how the term is used in modern context

That “authoritarian putting down of a revolution” was the squashing of anti-Semitic rightwing pogroms and mobs. Good riddance.

Every nation state in existence is authoritarian, the different is towards who. You are still deep in Liberal dogma

Nope, you will get called a tankie if you support Palestine. Tankies are generally anti imperialist war while the squishier social Democrat types are pro-war. Tankie authoritarians were against WW1 while the “lib left” all voted along nationalist lines

Yeah I’m a tankie

generally it vaguely means “communists” as well as “anti-imperialists”, with the caveat that left communists are excluded as a separate thing

that user is denying that Donetsk was bombed for 8 years. I wouldn’t doubt that they also don’t believe in other well documented and widely known historical facts
