That was my first thought too...

are you mixing up different replies?

I had the wrong text in my clip board; I meant to quote:

One can hate capitalism and also hate Stalinists.

Which is indeed a complete non-sequitor.

There is no irony, the words “Tankie” and “Liberal” are not equivalent. Tankie is always a pejorative in response to specific stated politics. Liberal is an ideological identity that sometimes is used as a pejorative by some leftists because its an accusation that they actually secretly support capitalism.

"They're not the same because 'tankie' is a real ideology and 'liberal' is just a pejorative" is the most obviously brain-dead and stupid argument imaginable. You can't seriously expect me to entertain in.

Its that you fundamentally don’t engage with the actual stated beliefs and decide that we actually believe something else entirely.

Hey, asshole. You called me a tankie for the sole reason that I said that Fascism and Stalinism are distinct ideologies and not interchangeable terms. Not for defending Stalinism, not even for saying it's not as bad as Fascism, just for saying it's a different ideology. So you can take your " Its that you fundamentally don’t engage with the actual stated beliefs and decide that we actually believe something else entirely" hypocritical bullshit, take a look in the mirror and stop projecting your own bad behavior on me.

And this is why are say your framing of the world is ultimately just Marvel 'good guys' and 'bad guys', because you see me say Stalinism and Fascism are different and just assume that I'm defending stalinism; because to you, they're both just pejorative synonyms for "being a Bad Guy", so saying Stalinism isn't fascism is saying it isn't "being a Bad Guy".

If you wanted to say, call me a “Anarkiddy” or something that would at least be a little closer to the same thing as me calling you a Tankie.

In that it's completely fucking baseless and inaccurate?

I’m not really strictly an anarchist anymore either, but still I’m infinitely closer to that than liberal.

Ok, so you're a liberal.

I don’t embrace the label.

Don't care, labels are descriptive, not a personal affectation.

I just also don’t take the accusation from Tankies that I’m a liberal seriously anymore.

You really need to work on the projection, hypocrite.

I’m mostly just annoyed by the extremely boring and tiresome intellectual dishonesty.

Then you should stop engaging in it, liberal.

I do say that, because that's not what makes the secular leadership of the West engage in warfare in the middle east. It's isn't their staunch belief in evangelical Christianity that is making Keir Starmer, Friedrich Merz, or Donald Trump engage in genocide and warfare in the middle east.

Nope. Not even close.

No, only the BlueAnon wackos are diving into these conspiracy theories. No leftist needs that kind of nonsense to explain why the USA would elect someone like Trump.

peer reviewed research

Lol, this is what liberals think Wikipedia is.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Why is the liberal chain of citations always Wikipedia, and then "My grandparents!". It's so consistent it's like you all have the same script.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 days ago

If that is true then trump is based and ice is deporting illegal criminals and rapists.

Wells that's just a completely incoherent non-sequitor.

Youre a literal palette swapped nazi and deserve the same fate as nazis.

I'm not the one condemning the killing of Nazi soldiers, that's you, dog. You're literally doing the "if you fight back against the Nazis, that makes you a Nazi!" bullshit.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 days ago

Liberalism is authoritarian.

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 days ago

So is the public owning going to lead to you developing any introspection?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 8 points 5 days ago

Do you ever get tired of being confidently incorrect?

[–] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml -1 points 5 days ago

Lol, yeah, you're a real rational adult.

Idiot
