What terms should I google then? I'm familiar with the terms i've seen in the thread this far.. Like, I know what reactionary means, I just don't know why they are using that word. .. Are they suggesting disliking communist content is.. reactionary?

Like, I know what reactionary means, I just don't know why they are using that word. .. Are they suggesting disliking communist content is.. reactionary?

Are you suggesting opposing progressive changes to society isn't reactionary?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm suggesting that communism is not progressive. But i'm not here to argue politics with fools, just to be clear.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well tough luck, because I am, so explain. What about communism, a system that extends democracy from just the government to the entire workplace, seems regressive or part of the status quo? What past condition is it trying to reestablish? Or is this one of those vibes based "akshully Xi was allowed to stand for president more than twice so that makes him a dictator" analyses?

Supremely ironic lmao.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes, doubly so, because it applies to you. You two jokers have been derailing this thread so bad.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Derailing this thread by engaging in discussion about the topic the OP posted about. Yeah sure dude.

Let me guess you also are one of the losers that thinks we brigade your posts because they just naturally show up in our feed and we have to dunk on you for being shit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What's with you coming up with things out of nowhere? First you call me a reactionary for no reason. Now you for some reason talk about me blaming you for brigading my posts or something.. I have 0 posts on lemmy lmao. Are you delusional? Fighting with demons there.

Okay let me try to summarize how you two absolute clowns have been derailing this thread.

the poster calls out lemmy[.]ml, lemmygrad[.]ml, lemmy[.]worldhe xbea r[.]net for being communist and he does not want to see that shit
the user mayo_cider thinks he is somehow calling him out by stating that lemmy was made by communists... so what? that doesn't contradict point 1 whatsoever. yes, it was made by communists, but the whole point of a decentralized platform is that it doesn't mean that we have to be see communist drivel somehow. it's not inherently a communist platform.
the op responds with good reasons why he dislikes these instances. lemmy[.]ml - Censorship of pro-ukraine posts and comments lemmygrad - see above; also defederated a lot. lemmy[.]world - too big, has a lot of toxic people, some moderation issues hex - defederated from most of the mainstream fediverse.
you respond to that the hex one is exactly what the people leaving reddit should be told.. fair enough, its your opinion, whatever.
I respond to you that I disagree, I don't want to see that crap, and seeing similar things in reddit made my experience miserable there as well. I just have a different opinion, still all good.
Now you call me a reactionary (which I am not, but thats besides the point). Here you already derailed the topic, its just some personal insult stuff with no actual point behind it. I guess I offended you somehow by not liking hexbear content, go figure. I did not call you a dirty commy or something because of what you said in comment 4. You derailed by making it personal and making no points whatsoever.
now ProfessorOwl_PhD responds to me by claiming i don't know what words mean and i should google. they are wrong with that assumption, but fair enough, all good this far.
I respond to ProfessorOwl_PhD by specifying that I know what words mean and I even make a correct assumption that I was being called a reactionary in comment 6. because I don't like communism.
I don't know why we are talking about this, but fair enough, lets clarify then.
now in that response, ProfessorOwl_PhD, instead of accepting that they misunderstood my comment, they further derail the topic by starting to argue that anyone who opposes communism are reactionary... Why are we talking about this? What does any of this has to do with comments 1-5?
I respond, because why not. But I did not start this and I have very low interest in this derailment. I did not start this and I don't know why we are here. Also, this is where I start to mention that I'm not interested and lets wrap it up. Why would I be interested in this discussion, if my whole point from my comment (5.) is that I don't like to see communist crap in my social media platform? Would it not by extension be clear that I DO NOT enjoy engaging with it?
ProfessorOwl_PhD completely ignores that i'm not interested and tries to get political with me. I'm not interested so at this point I'm not responding to the contents of their comment. This is just further derailment after all.
I respond with stating that their reading comprehension must be really bad because they just refuse to get my point that i'm not interested.
now you step in, somehow finding it ironic that I call them out on their reading comprehension, where i'm implying that i'm not interested. No, it's not ironic, and no, you are saying nothing of value here. Derailing.
Now I call you both out for derailing.
You claim that somehow all these comments (6-14) have been related to the original comments in the thread (1-4). They have not. Also you say some weird schizo shit about brigading that has nothing to do with nothing, even more derailing and personal insults.

Did I clear it up? Probably too confusing for you, let me guess, you will respond with even more points that have nothing to do with anything. You already called me a reactionary and a brigading "victim" for no reason, what fantasies are you coming up next? Don't keep me waiting! Or actually do, I'm not going to respond any more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Uh you're speaking for OP here and they literally have stated they are fine with hexbear and all the "commie stuff"

You are just pissy because we called you reactionary because that is what you are.

Please write another wall of text I will not read though, it gives me joy to see you are totally not mad.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Well tough luck, because I am

nerd ummm reading comprehension sweaty?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I told you i don't want to discuss politics with you fools. Being "tough" is not going to negate that. I'm not going to engage with your nonsense nevertheless. Apparently you fail to understand that.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And I told you that I don't care. You're the one claiming communism isn't progressive, all I did was ask some very simple questions about how you came to such a ridiculous conclusion and you started throwing out accusations of nonsense. The call's coming from inside the house buddy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I mean, you two clowns are the ones claiming that i'm a reactionary (which by extension would imply that communism is progressive, because reactionaries deny progressivism and all that jazz), I just disagreed with that. It's not like I just claimed out of nowhere that communism isn't progressive, I just responded to what you asshats started. But you wouldn't get that, reading comprehension and all that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I just claimed out of nowhere that communism isn't progressive

And you're fucking wrong that is why we are dunking on you.

Here read fucking Einstein. Anyone with any inkling of intelligence knows that capitalism is destructive and counter to human development. You just have fucking brain worms about it because you are a gullible rube who has been fed a deluge of anticommunist propaganda and you lack the mental fortitude to engage critically with any topic political or otherwise.

You are a tool, a stooge for the ruling class. You would sell out your fellow human for a step up on the ladder. You disgust me.

If you don't want to discuss politics then you should go live in a cave away from civilization because what you call "politics" is literally just socializing.
