In a political time when we need to unite against MAGA fascists, I find this type of divisive post absolutely disgusting.
We don't need to replace one authoritarian with another one. Check out what a lot of auth communists did, once the Nazi party got in power in Germany.
Come back to reality mate, the "auth communists" have no political power and no motion.
Being afraid of an authoritarian communist takeover in the US is like being afraid of an invasion by the Mongol Empire. It would be scary, it would be bad, but its just a silly fantasy.
"But authoritarians always kill libs when they do."
You don't see the catch 22?
Fascists have taken control of the most powerful country in the history of the world. Trump is following a gameplan to destroy nearly every institution in modern civilization.
"But some Tankies on the internet have some bad ideas too!"
You don't see which is the bigger priority?
Ally with the left fash that refused to vote for the milquetoast liberal in order to defeat the right fash? Sure. Not that the dems didn't fuck themselves over, but the absolute least they could have done was vote for kamala and they couldn't even do that.
Don't whitewash genocide denial and dictatorship support as "bad ideas." They are ideas fundamentally incompatible with lib left politics.
