Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

We are simultaneously tankie, fascist and woke.
just to be clear, the op is a comrade (translate the mandarin in their bio if you don't believe me), they're showing how libs use tankie like conservatives use woke
This is what I hate about CTH. In the end sarcasm is dead, now it is not that far fetched opinion to witness even in lemmy.
Ah, I didn't get that. I thought they were a weirdo rightist.
Neoliberal's issue with us isn't the fact they believe we are fascist, its that we aren't the fascists they feel comfortable rooting for.
Neo or normal lib, their criticism of us is that we have strong beliefs and we can actually do things. According them, this is what fascists do. Stronger the beliefs and the more things we actually accomplish, more fascist we become.
Which would also make many neoliberals fascists. But they don't understand reality in the first place.
Hot take: Many neoliberals actually are fascists.
all good, they're not a native English speaker from what I can tell so I don't think it's coming across quite as well as they intended lol
My ass deleting my comments out of shame lol. I went back and read some of their comments and after the fact I can kind of tell lol. I'm a dummy.
you're no dummy, tone is hard to tell on the internet, especially in this scenario lol
