As is tradition of course.

And down goes the paper-thin mask

Well good to know that it's that easy to work around your community rules by just re-labeling the target as "not real leftists".

My sibling in Christ, when you're done pissing your pants over my meanie gatekeeping, try actually reading the comments in the OP. That person is a chauvinist explicitly defending the status quo by saying, in so many words, that all "extremists" are mentally-ill losers looking to power trip. Are you saying that it's newspeak revisionism to claim that a message like that is probably not leftist? Please, tell me where Kropotkin says that revolution is only supported by the bitterest dregs of society and therefore invalid.

Of course you have no problem with your own fucking redbashing, but opportunistically using this shallow patina of anti-sectarianism when it comes to Your Guys is apparently not below you.

Shut the fuck up and go purge the neoliberal chauvinists from your instance. When it's actually more recognizable as being anarchist rather than "left-ish with red scare characteristics", we can talk.

"Your specific brand of 'leftism'" did not refer to "anarchism", it referred to your specific brand, which attracts absolute slime like we see in the OP for reasons that you would do well to figure out.

CC: @blashork@hexbear.net this is my reasoning. If insulting someone's boutique nominally-anarchist (actually bidenist) instance is sectarianism, I invite you to take whatever moderation actions you deem appropriate to defend its sordid sanctity.

Isn't it? The instance owner is an "anarchist" and runs a comm for it, as we were all privileged with knowing when they decided to trawl for drama with reactionary bullshit. Perhaps that at least elucidates the main commonality in what we've seen:

shit-tier geopolitics takes,

When they were trawling, there was the classic of ultras and liberals arguing side by side repeating the same tired myths and hyperbole.

It really makes you feel like harm is being reduced

It's wild how there are neoliberal ghouls on that nominally "leftist" instance. Really makes you wonder if there are some ideological problems with their particular brand of "leftism" that it is so immensely compatible with open chauvinism like that.

But also come on this could herald a wave of posting things being smashed beneath olmec heads and I support that

Or smashing Teslas beneath other things

They really quoted the Manifesto and said:

While this quote does not encapsulate marx’s entire view on the state, it shows that Marx sees that the state is bourgeois and therefore antagonistic to the proletariat.

But this guy is probably like 14 and definitely banned, so there's no need to spend much time worrying about their sophomorism

As a US citizen, I was "robbed of the possibility to travel" to the DPRK, and it wasn't the DPRK who did the robbing.

Bear witness to the sickest shot while suckers get romantic

They ain't gonna send us campin' like they did my man Fred Hampton

Still we lampin', still clockin' dirt for our sweat

A ballot's dead, so a bullet's what I get

A thousand years they had the tools, we should be takin' 'em

Fuck the G-ride, I want the machines that are makin' 'em

I think what they are referring to is the way reactionaries in some countries (notably the right in Russia and China) consider queerness to be nearly a western invention and queer rights to be some nefarious plot by the west to weaken them. Therefore, one can hope (though it's unclear if this is what would happen) that the US waving fewer rainbow flags abroad would weaken the rhetorical basis for this myth and therefore make things easier for queer movements in Russia, China, etc.

Nobody here supports the Russian Federation in anything because of the Soviet Republic, the RU was created to cement the destruction of the SR. If you would like to read a book, now would be a great time.
