The power trip / ban doesn’t bother me, but the misinformation does. They present as leftist, but flare up around US elections discouraging voter turnout via ‘bOtH siDeS’ garbage. that only ever elevates shit like MAGA.

In the linked thread, OP promotes rioting while discouraging voter turnout. My comments agreed with activism like riots, but pointed out that it’s not an either-or thing. You can riot -and- vote; and even if you don’t have it in you to riot, still do vote.

Banned.

You can see my removed comment quoted in the post after mine.

This ‘blue MAGA’ tankie shit is somehow worse than the loud-and-clear MAGA shit over on Reddit - at least those neonazis were honest about who they were.

Anywho, YSK. Spaces like r/conservative were clearly labeled and easy to avoid; [email protected] presents as a cause worth rallying around, but only until you peel up the veneer and see that they’re the same fucking thing.

Also please vote. In addition to whatever flavor of activism tickles your fancy.

    Go on defending a “socialist” country that produces more billionaires than the US for the third straight year and shows no signs of slowing down. The fourth largest arm dealer in the world spreading its imperial killing machine across Africa where their arms have already killed civilians on both sides. One that literally meets every definition of fascism including the tight integration of business and the government.

    Confusing neoauthoritarianism for communism is pretty damned funny honestly. Thanks!

      Yes, that’s the imperial core propaganda I’m talking about. The US spends millions per year cranking it out, as earmarked in the budget by Congress.

      I know for a fact each of these points has been thoroughly explained to you multiple times, so my question is: are you paid not to understand? Is it that the propaganda is baked in too deep? Are you silly as heck?

      No disrespect.
