Was there some sort of assurance that nothing was going to happen when the contract expired, and this expectation was changed? Freenom hasn’t been registering domains since Jan 1.

It’s seeming a little odd to me that this is catching people with their pants down.

      They are the best example of why left unity is bullshit. Tankies are okay with literal fascism as long as it doesn’t involve a western country.

          Just because someone’s beliefs don’t align with yours doesn’t mean they “aren’t on the left”.

          Leftism isn’t a catch all for good people.

          In fact many anarchists became disillusioned with the idea of “the left”, hence post-leftism.

        Just because it’s authoritarian doesn’t mean it’s fascist. The USSR murdered millions, and was an authoritarian shithole, but that doesn’t mean it was fascist. It was communist. Fascism is terrible, but so are other forms of authoritarianism.

          A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism

          It’s literally semantics at this point

            The “a capitalist economy” bit is the very important distinction. Communist states share most or all of the other traits with fascism. But so do Feudal countries with merchantilist economies, modern dictatorships without government-driven economy, and all other strongly authoritarian systems eventually.
