“Reactionary is just a made-up word to justify lumping in non-MLs with fascists”
Getting confusing because MLs are reactionary
What the hell even is that word? Does that mean that you react to something? Because everyone does.
I’m seeing the word thrown around lately and it’s one of the dumber reductionist labels I’ve seen in my lifetime.
did you get banned from Google or something? It’s a common word in political science dating back to the French revolution, not some weird new invention.
I can’t tell if everyone itt is being sarcastic or smth
what kind of a world are we living in where people can just make up words to describe whatever concept they want
Thanks Derrida
All words are made up; that’s what language is
“Counterrevolutionary” is a word devised in order to avoid saying “rules for thee by not for me”.
What if they forgot that communism can’t be authoritarian nor a regime
Hannah Arendt worked for the CIA.
Attack the material, not the source. Her writing on her subject matter are some of the best in my opinion.

Lol, the first time I’ve ever been screencapped. A guy can’t repost a factoid he read once and accepted non-critically without getting implicitly called a tankie around here.

Wait — this is amazing. You caught them saying something dumb, but redacted their name. But then they came to your post to out themselves entirely and complain to you, except their explanation is that they’re not a tankie as such, only a complete fool.
I need a minute.
The best gifts wrap themselves.
Hush, tankie
