    You know nothing about me mate. You have no idea about anyone you're talking to here with this ridiculous generalisation. Whether they may have been in prison prior to radicalising leftwards, or whether they've already been. It's honestly really weird and awkward when people respond with some obvious cartoon picture in their head of who the other person is that they made up entirely based on zero information prior to responding.

    A better starting point if you wanted to have an actual human interaction instead of trying to pander would have been to ask whether I've actually spent any time inside already. I've been active longer than you've been cooking for yourself.

    I really think you should take some time to self-crit on why you responded this way. Whatever set you off to attack a decent human being this hard seems like an unresolved personal issue. Stop attacking people for cartoons that exist entirely in your own head and actually speak to human beings and learn who/what they are, have a real conversation, connect and then offer whatever concerns you have when you do actually understand who the person is that you're speaking to. This cartoon character shit is libby nonsense.

      This is the same site where anyone who says something against the extreme ideological consensus is called a fascist right?

        Depends what kind of fascism we're talking about. Palingenetic ultranationalist fascism? No. Imperialism? Sure. State repression? Sure. Claiming people live in a democracy when everyone spends 10 hours a day working at a dictatorship? Sure.

        It really depends. There are several types of fascism on a sort of spectrum that lead into one another in a systemic way.

        I think another way to look at it is in the same light as how people call healthcare "socialist". Yes it is socialist in the sense that it's a policy that socialists like and support. Is it socialism itself? No. Is it a socialist feature? Yes. Do you live under fascism? No. Do you live with fascist features? Absolutely yes. If you advocate for something that is a fascist feature and someone says "that's fascist", I think you should be seeing it in the same light as someone saying "that's socialist" when point a finger at the advocation for healthcare or democratic workplaces and so on.

        Your attitude doesn't sound like you're making a particularly good-faith attempt at conversation. If that isn't going to change then I'm going to have to ask you to post a picture of your dick.

          I agree completely with what you've said, but I was explicitly referring to calling people fascists, not identifying statements or societal features as fascist. As you alluded to in your reply it's the parallel version of when Republican boomers label anyone advocating for i.e. Health Care For All as a "Socialist!" , and use that as a blanket method of dismissing them as unworthy of listening to. I will not be posting a picture of my penis at this time, and without wanting to make a big deal of it, find that meme kind of grossly sexual and gendered in a way that cuts against the admirably gender progressive nature of this site and movement.

            You started this interaction with an attack using prison rape I don't think you're in any position to make a moral argument about "grossly sexual" things in this interaction. If gendered things are an issue then put your pronouns on your profile, ironically I DO have mine up and you still made a misgendered prison rape attack though.
