That place is just 4chan for commies, isn’t it?
No! It’s actually a real fun and friendly place.
I question if they’re even communists, considering most commie-spaces throw them out, and I’ve never actually seen them talk about communism in the modern day.
Marxist-leninist is the term they use (.ml) which should be called stalinism as that’s it’s ideological father.
If called out they can confront with huge diatribes with often ready maar copy pastes from red sails.
Why do you think they turn tankie instead of being a communist?
Easily sucked in an information funnel that’s very hard core. This is not unique. In the nineteenth century some hard core communists bored against help for laborers, as they felt it would happen their appetite for revolution.
Mostly salon communists, mind you.
Inability to create honest discourse. It’s why they rely on copy-paste responses for most comments and an image macros of a pig shitting on its own balls when you really get them cornered in a fallacy.
Also why they rely on brigading/“dunking”. It shuts down any real discussion and makes it clear they’re out of actual arguments.
Fortunately, they have never actually tried to ‘dunk’ this community. I think it’s because they fear they’ll be mocked and questioned.
I wonder if it’s because they realize that roleplaying revolutionaries does nothing to advance the working class, and that the main job right now is to pull the populace left and organize labor so there CAN be a sustainable socialist future, not to live out your wildest ML fantasies where you get to shoot all the anarchists and exile all the Whites?
I think it’s more apt to say they roleplay the working class. I’ve found most of them are just rich, bored kids
-Hates anyone who isn’t a complete believer in the “cause” -Praises genocidal countries like USSR and China who killed millions -Absolute dicks and generally people who irritate others “wHY DoES nO ONe LIkE uS?1?1”
I’ve read the screen copy and can’t see any reference to “genocidal countries” at all (BTW you forgot Israel, didn’t you?). They are just telling the american way of life won’t cope with inequity, climate change and other countries wanting to live the same way, and centrist lefitism is not enough to change things…
I hate all genocides.
Unlike tankies.
I’m not saying Israel isn’t genocidal, cause it most definitely is. I’m saying that tankies support for other genocidal countries is evil. Also hypocritical seeing how they support one genocidal regime and against another.
If that last sentence is all that tankies believed in, this community wouldn’t exist. People aren’t against tankies because they’re against the problems we face, it’s because they hate the American regime so much that they see the Chinese and Russian regimes as a better option despite them all being terrible
Well, I guess I’m not a tankie then, nor an American either. I was born as a western citizen, in the good side of the world. Then… I have been fooledva deceived by the western world. I don’t expect China, or Russia, or any dictatorship to do any good. I was expecting the US and Europe and even Israel to do so. Then… About Grahib, Guantanamo, Gaza, Snowden’s revelations, Rainbow warrior, hate, lies, massacres, … Western world in not any better than the rest… Not worst, but certainly not better. And I’m sad.
What is the best? If you even think there’s such a thing
you can view multiple posts throughout this community where they praise genocides
and again, man, what is it with people always trying to find anything they can to squeeeeze in israel and palestine. like bruh, come on, you’re more obnoxious than preachers on a train.
Well, genocide is a word calling for references to Israel these days… Having extremists religious supremacists leading a country is rarely a call for humanism.
Yeah, I don’t care. Just try to stay on topic.
