Quit trying to pretend "tankie" means "communist" and not "authoritarian bootlicker."

As soon as Liberals stop using it to mean Communist.

I dunno know what the Marx quite has to do with King. Very different kinds of revolution, the main one being non violent.

MLK Jr.'s march was more violent than the BLM protests were, and MLK Jr. was the moderate option compared to the Black Panthers and Malcolm X. MLK Jr.'s radicalism is intentionally blunted and obscured.

Furthermore is kind of tragic what happened with Lenin's legacy, his thought being blunted similarly into stalinist autocracy

It was more Kruschev onward where the Soviet system started to meaningfully diverge from Lenin.

The Rebels were revolutionaries, not electoral candidates. A more accurate meme would be about voting for Grand Moff Tarkin or Darth Vader, with Leftists siding with the Rebels. George Lucas himself said Star Wars was inspired by the Vietnam War, and the rebels represented the Viet Cong and the Empire represented the US.

Imperialism in action, which is also why Imperialism defeats itself.

Fascism is Capitalism in decline. They aren't distinct systems, but the same one meshed.

Israel will be finished economically when people flee. Many settlers have dual citizenship, it won't be a razing to the ground as much as slowly bleeding to death.

Nah, Israel is cooked. The Iron Dome is not a forcefield, Iran proved that. Israel can't take Lebanon either. Unless the US commits fully to the war, Israel is finished.

I'm not Muslim. Never claimed to be.

It's genocide, you framed it as a choice to be agreed with or not, and not as a cruel act of inhumanity.

Shocker, the entire State duopoly is aligned on Israeli support, ie genocide and regional war.

The one bringing about the fascist dictatorship is the genocide enthusiast at the helm right now. Alienating voters by being a genocidal monster is on the genocidal monster.
