    Rare to see someone on an ML domain speak out against Stalin and more modern genociders like Xi. I’m with ya, but you should know, your instances admins like to ban for such things. Be careful.

        What, not being a hypocrite? If you criticize one. You should criticize the other. I agree the US and Harris shouldn’t support and enable genocide. Neither should ML. Nothing about it is really clever. But if you think it is I think that says more about you than anyone else.

          You really think you’re doing something her don’t you? Am I being harangued to vote for Stalin? Are my taxes funding anything Xi is doing?

            Of course not. I literally complimented you on being genuine. And warned you about the hypocrisy of pointing out the same for other groups on that instance. Judging from your reaction something about one or both of those offended you.

            Sure Stalin slaughtered tens of thousands of ethnic polish and helped WWII Germany take Poland. That’s on the older side of things. Putin has slaughtered nearly 10M Ukrainians last I saw. Lots of ML, perhaps and hopefully not you, defend Putin in this. Xi and the vanguard party in China are similarly imprisoning and slaughtering any that do not conform to their prescribed monoculture. Which again far too many Marxist leninists support. Though hopefully not you hopefully you’re being genuine. But from your responses so far I do question that.

              What a felicitous meeting of two genuine gentlesirs! For my part, I would like to reciprocate the compliment and congratulate you on your steadfast opposition to the Democrat party, given their unwavering support for genocide in Gaza. It is a rare thing indeed for a .world user to go against the grain of liberal political opinion by refusing any political support to such monsters as Harris, Waltz and Biden.
