i want you nerds to stop crying about federating and realize REALIZE (with your real eyes) that once federated, we will finally be back to our roots - spreading our lord and savior :PIGPOOPBALLS: & his message :programming-communism: across the fediverse
sorry i can accept almost anything but i can not, no, i will not accept authoritarianism, kind sir.
The pig’s butthole didn’t get consent from the pig’s balls before pooping on them. It’s a literal hierarchy where shit trickles down.
Lol fuck off, it's a valid concern. We are too big of nerds, not honed enough in shit-posting, to deal with reddit culture right now. We have a totally different culture than r/cth. A better culture imo. It'll be a shame to watch it all go to shit.
That's like saying the reddit dweebs that got clowned in the old subreddit made the subreddit go to shit, it didn't.
Literally not the same thing.
It didn't make the old subreddit go to shit because the old subreddit's entire posting culture was based around dunking on redditors. This forum's posting culture is not. On the old subreddit, I would have posted 'lol we're gonna get fucked, loser' or 'fuck, go read a book so you can learn how to do analogies'. On here, I'm actually trying to dialog with you. There was a good reason r/moretankiechapo existed outside of just mod disputes.
I'm trusting the mods on this one, but sallying forth into the fray was not the chapo mo, picking out individuals and leading them back to chapo to dogpile was the main method of attack. Fight your battles where you are strongest.
That's fine, I've been doing this a long time and I may be abit too cynical. I just would rather not see this place have to go through a kerryposter phase again. I'm trusting the mod team to keep a lid on things.
I do trust the mod team and the community to keep things where they need to be. I'd really like to see a return of some exiled r/cth users , I'm sure there's a good amount that don't have any idea we exist, but might hear about our instance as the "r/cth remnants" or whatever and find their way back.
There's a good chance we will leech off plenty of other users too over time. I am not a huge fan of dunking like many people on here, but it's an excellent tool for me, since I can be a "good
copcommunist]" and deliver some facts with a bit of lib smugness that they love, but tempered down from the comrade next to me that posted ppb. "Yeah that guy is an unreasonable tankie, but you do need to understand that there has been a lot of NATO encroachment toward the Russian border and......"
"read a book" on Che Guevara :che-laugh: something that has infamously never set anybody on a path to marxism-leninism
How many negative books about Che even exist? Really fucking hard to paint him badly at all.
because direct accounts are so universally praiseworthy they sneak anti che screeds into general anti-communist books with choice che quotes
Yeah exactly, if you read any book dedicated to Che there is not enough content to write a book without it being generally positive because that's what his life was.
I mean, he was maximalist who was constantly agitating for head on confrontation with the US
The fact that he was allowed as a left wing voice in the cuban government who was even occasionally listened to speaks volumes imo.
libs have really been running wild with calling everything they don't like "authoritarian" lately. It so obviously never carries any real meaning but still it's fucking everywhere right now
Authoritarianism is when a man leads a revolt against slaveowners, or when a moderator won’t let me say slurs, but not when the a neoliberal empire genocides millions in the Middle East in the name of line go up
it melts my fucking brain that so many of these people sit in the country with the world's largest prison population while accusing every official state department adversary of being authoritarian
Authoritarianism is when Stalin personally sends people to ‘labor camps’ but it’s not authoritarianism when millions of Americans are in ‘prisons’ that just happen to have work programs
In 'private' prisons. You see they aren't part of the state, even though the state legitimates their violence.
It just means 'bad people'.
That's it. The words mean nothing to them, they're mere signifiers of 'the other'.
The person who taught the libs the word tankie has a lot to answer for
The person who taught the libs the word tankie
Not a lot of people know but it was actually this guy
It's so Authoritarian when uncivilized people resist our benevolent bombings
This is my last social media site. I really hope we don't get inundated with the exact shit that has made every other platform unusable for me.
Right, if this falls my plan B could only be a cabin in the woods and writing my manfesto
He killed all those poor and innocent slave owners and batista soldiers in Cuba :ooooooooooooooh:
All the mafia casinos and corporations that are legally recognized as people 😢
It's just the new favorite buzzword like groomers with the far-right. It conjures up images of the holocaust and immediately put the person accused of it as "bad"
Genocide is everyone we don't like, and the less we like them, the more genocide they've done.
What the fuck does the word Tankie even means? Nothing, just a word without meaning that Americans like to say because they think it will destroy any argument.
Also, i fucking love when they mix up Che Guevara with Fidel Castro and Joseph Stalin. Like, if someone is a famous communist they must have been a evil head of state that commited genocide.
What the fuck does the word Tankie even means
Anyone to the left of like, Tony Blair
The funniest thing about the word "tankie" to me, is that it refers to the best thing Krushev ever did in his life: send tanks into Hungary to protect them from a counter revolution
Love that communists are called tankies for sending tanks into a fascist counter revolution like 70 years ago, but liberals aren't called tankies for sending tanks into several dozen countries just last year.
It is. I like that. The next fucking loser that calls me a tankie is going to get that shit turned around on them and called a pathetic bootlicking dronie.
What the fuck does the word Tankie even means?
everyone to the left of joe biden
Every liberal political opponent is guilty of genocide now. It's the first accusation they make.
They even went there in the the Russia-Ukraine war. Nothing is beyond the scope of genocide, now. They've completely trashed the gravity of the word.
It's especially infuriating since the Maidan regime was carrying out an actual genocide. The dronies are the actual genocide deniers.
it means someone who wants to be really mean to capitalists and their collaborators. can't do that!
Read a book.
The book is Wretched of the Earth, and it bodes ill for you.
:fedposting: great news , boss, we've established a beachhead on Lemmy
Whenever someone says "read a book" without specifying an actual book I just assume they have done zero research into whatever it is they're talking about.
Heh yeah imagine just showin up and yelling "READ THEORY" :side-eye-1:
That's fine, but you also need to be firing theory out of a t-shirt cannon and praying for the person who gets assigned the Grundrisse
Now I'm going to take this into an account and next time I will say "go and read the how and why book of soccer" if you think Ronaldo was better than Messi.
Last time i told a liberal to read a book, "read a book" was a link to State and Revolution.
i absolutely despise "empire did nothing wrong" posters the easiest, most basic joke, babies understand it---"what if there were a convoluted, obviously specious excuse for the actions of the (inordinately, exhaustively bad ) Megafascists in the most popular movie franchise?" wouldn't it be funny to act like what was wrong was correct for a moment?
and these poisoned, disgusting, navel-gazing contrarians EMBRACE the joke! these are the sorts of people to make you feel bad for making a clever joke by their heruclean gullibility
THE EMPEROR OF WARHAMMER 40K DID NOTHING WRONG, HE DID THE BEST HE COULD
"The cruelest and most bloody regime imaginable" is the literal fucking tagline of the setting.
And it's seen as ASPIRATIONAL
Only Gork can save us. Or possibly Mork...
Gorkamorka will decide our fate.
And it's worn so thin because it always boils down to the same knee-jerk bootlicking defense they use in real life: those radicals were disrupting the heckin public orderino
They know all the communist leaders but always seem to forget the numerous capitalist genocidal dictators their country propped up. Bet a single one doesn't know who Rios Montt is.
That whole post is so bad, why did the reddit libs have to flock so hard to lemmy :cringe:
can't believe the reddit clone is exactly like reddit, who would've thought
This is happening because of an influx of 196 users. The original communities at lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml were (and are) more closely aligned with us. They've had a 1000% increase in load in like 3 days though.
I can't, I just can't. I've been really involved in this shit for a good week now but that thread is just going to make my head explode if I keep reading it. I cannot remember the last time I read conversations that infuriatingly stupid.
most likely the 196-style dumbasses with go back to reddit once the fixed-length strike ends in like a day (I hope)
:kim-salute:
you've done good work in the trenches of liberalism
:rat-salute-2: it's no "picture of a pig shitting on itself," but it'll have to do
nah, posting well worded replies is better, I'm just the shitposting wing
