So many hexbear users here lmao
This has made my Lemmy experience considerably better
We out here
Libs are subconsciously uncomfortable thinking about real politics. Too many contradictions with their world view. Leftists are not. Hence a lot of us engage with these threads, it gets to the top of our all, and more engage.
The_Donald of the Left.
Do you agree with this meme and consider yourself part of "the Left"? Just curious
That's irrelevant, also, I'm not interested in discourse with you. Bye.
Then you shouldn't have said anything
The_Donald is when you believe the opposite of The_Donald
They're tankies, aren't they? i.e. Red-coded fascists that don't care about things like worker enfranchisement unless it's a way of expressing American diabolism. That's not the left.
Well they claim to be left but they are delusional. They are definitely fascists the support fascist regimes like North Korea. They claim it's not a fascist country just a communist one, but anyone with a brain understands it's also EXTREMELY FASCIST.

Holy shit. Too bad instances can't defederate HB. They seem to not understand that they're tankies.
What is a tankie?
No one seems to know
a miserable little pile of secrets?
I support crushing fascists with tanks.
Nooo not tankies! Don’t they know it’s illegal to be a communist
they wish it was and will side with Nazis to make it a reality
Can you please elaborate?
Tankie is a social construct and is used to lazily discredit everyone to the left of bernie. It functions to libs the same way as "woke" functions for chuds. As a term it's basically meaningless to anyone outside of the internet.
I love how you guys have decided that your definitions are the only correct ones. It's your primary weapon here, for obvious reasons.
You're strawmaning hard here, because I never said it's a definition or that it's the only one. It's just my understanding of the term. What part of it is wrong in your opinion? I want to consider it
Because it's obvious that when you're challenged on your understanding of words you have nothing to say?
Communism is political science, words have meanings and we tend to use the correct ones, yes.
Have fun worshipping the machinery of enslavement and death. As it crushes you, I hope it comforts you knowing at least you weren't a tankie.
