        Lol do you people go around linking to your comments on hexbear so your ‘comrades’ can come upvote you? Hexbear comments are always unusually upvoted, even when it’s a controversial topic or if the comment itself is braindead (most of them are).

          It’s both funny and sad that the reddit diaspora culture you’re immersed in has carried over such a tradition of pointless snark and petty posturing that you see people supporting each other’s points and can’t imagine anything but a sinister conspiracy to derail you, the main character.

          Like for the first time in maybe your whole life you’re experiencing social media without a big corporate hand on the cultural scale, and you can either learn or continue to shit your pants amusingly.

            Lmao I’m probably old enough to be your disappointed father.

            It’s well known that some fringe communities coordinate in order to amplify their views. Not really a wild idea.

        Why would anyone do that? Wokeness is rad and cool, while tankies love to do fascist apologia, which is highly unwoke

            “My terminally online movement is not full of fascists and useful idiots parroting fascist propaganda because of, uhm, history” Yes, tell me again about the freikorps while every day I see another hazoid being besties with Nazis, or being a fascist themselves.

              Love how you call me terminally online while your argument for why i am a facist because of some random Haz fan. Also History is irrelevant now?

              “Sure Liberals have supported facists everytime but have you considerd Haz”

              “Tankies” fought alongside every anti colonial moments from Angola to Vietnam.

              While Liberals were to busy supporting far right shitholes like Chile Isreal South Vietnam South Korea

                I don’t know if you’re a fascist, I’m currently not interested enough to go checking.

                how you call me terminally online

                Because you’re on Lemmy defending legacy of a pejorative identifier when confronted with the fact that the modern online tankie community has produced a number of fascist-aligned notable persons over the last years, and keeps spreading and regurgitating fascist propaganda because of the common alignment against the West.

                The history is important. In this conversation, history is irrelevant. Stop making it about your honor

                    “Please stop pointing out we’re friends with fascists, it hurts our feefees. Don’t you know that muh history means I’m very cool and honorable despite being an internet warrior”.

                    You’re one step removed from a nationalist. Except you’re feeding your insecurity with a different flavour of a myth.

                  tankies love to do fascist apologia

                  I am quoting you here.

                  This is you committing the exact act being described in that article.

                  That makes it a direct reply to the exact thing you said.

                  Comment?

                    Please learn reading comprehension in regards the article in question. Or to my message. You seem to have trouble understanding at least one of the two

            Every time I criticize tankies they:

            1. Lie about what I said
            2. Pretend I’m talking about all communists. If I wanted to do so, I would use the term “communists”. But I don’t see a reason to attack the group I myself belong to
            3. Try to “no U” with irrelevant insinuations

              Oh, which successful communists are you talking about?

              Also, double genocide theory being holocaust trivialization still applies as it refers to calling the USSR fascist, if you think it is an irrelevant insuniation take it up with the Jewish holocaust scholars.

                As I said to the person below, learn reading comprehension or fuck off. I don’t want to engage in a conversation when I’m repeatedly being gaslit on what I said.

                    It’s impossible to insult successful communists, as there are none. Unless you lower your bar enough to ignore glaring issues like ethnic cleansing of “unloyal” peoples and recreation of the capitalist mode of production.

                    I’m not interested in the “no U” back-and-forth. If you want to defend online tankie community producing prominent fascists, then do so without deflecting. If you don’t, then stop acting indignant
