        i’m well aware of what the eternal september was, just commenting here that if you think a couple radlibs coming to lemmy for a few days before the reddit thing dies down and then melting down over checks notes communists existing is going to be anything other than an opportunity to make fun of you guys you’re delusional lol

          Hi 👋 Am a Marxist. Just don’t support authoritarian war machines headed by an exKGB, anti-LGBT christofascist. That y’all are supporting this obvious war of aggression is embarrassing and shameful to the rest of us actual communists and socialists with integrity. And we’re not going anywhere 😘

            Marxists typically have the decency to study history, e.g. Euromaidan and the ensuing civil war, the Minsk accords, etc.

            This is a proxy war and some leftists don’t want NATO to win, is that so hard to understand? We also believe it was an avoidable war

                Did you read what I wrote? I would love for this war to end asap but being geopolitically literate doesn’t mean I support Le Ebil Putin
