Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

These words also instantly make me lose respect for anyone who repeats them:

  • Western imperialism
  • Colonialism
  • Neo-liberal

There has to be some memo that gets passed around and every ml comment is contractually obbligated to include these phrases.

those are three things that actually materially destroyed my country.

Even in a historical context? Colonialism was absolutely real, 1930s neoliberalism was a real political movement, and the British Empire was absolutely a western imperialist system.

I never said they weren't real, did I? I just said I don't have to hear about it in every goddamn comment. Someone shits in the woods and an ml account will login to mention colonialism of neo-liberal policies influenced the color of my shit in the woods. It doesn't have to be repeated. every. goddamn. time.

well when we are from those places and still suffer from the consequences, its reasonable to still be mad about it regardless of your feelings

Ok chief. Safe to say we've all been impacted in one way or another. Did y'all just wake up yesterday and discover Reaganomics or some shit? C'mon.

what makes you think we started hating neoliberalism yesterday?

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

Dunno. The fact that you guys bring it up incessantly in every conversation like it's fresh news?

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

nah, we bring it up like most of you are ignoring it.

My friend: bringing up the oppression of capitalism on Lemmy is like jerking off while standing in a tub of semen. You're just doing it to signal to your friends how virtuous and enlightened you are. You aren't doing it to raise consciousness -- it's just an exercise in the largest circle jerk the in the universe. Splash splash my friend. Splash splash.

yet you still need to get here and be cummed on don't you? why does it offend you so much to see our dicks yet you always come back for more?

you are welcome to either leave lemmy, or get it into your little dumb conservative head.

I'm not conservative. I'm an American that left the US hell hole and moved to Europe. I just wasn't born yesterday or am mentally deficient that I need to be reminded every day or "Les capitalism". But please: keep glazing me with your anti capitalist rhetoric cum. I love it ❤️💕
