TokenBoomer is a tankie bootlicker. Ignore them. Their only interest is in sobbing "Why won't the socdems work with us???" while simultaneously saying that socdems and fascists are the exact same thing.

"Left unity" to tankies means "Lick out boots until we put a bullet in your head". Obey the party line!

I'd be amazed if this person actually lived in the US.

I, unfortunately, do. So, enjoy the amazement.

I'll believe it when I bump into you at the grocery store and apologize for not being communist enough.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So, you admit you don’t believe in communism. How did I know?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I didn't say that though. I said not communist enough as I doubt that I'd pass the ideological purity test of thinking that anything short of perfection may as well be MAGA.

I stand corrected. You do want to replace capitalism with socialism. You passed the test.

Thanks. I'm glad we're getting along.

You don’t agree that fascism is capitalism in decay? Why shouldn’t I want to work with groups that want to prevent another Trump presidency?

The issue isn't with wanting to work together - that's the key point you're missing. It's the way left-leaning Americans are lumped in with complete fascists, like it's either 100% good or "You're a LIBERAL just like Republicans!" (meaning neoliberal, which is also confusing af in American political terms).

I’m glad you understand. Education is liberation.
