You forgot "I wonder why fuel prices are sky rocketing even though we voted a president that promised to fight fossil fuels for climate bullshit"

Enjoy! I'll be here laughing.

I agree. Fascist countries like Denmark, Germany and Canada often get called "socialist" and they have been disastrous for the reputation of socialism.

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

Of course /s. Germany, with Fuhrer Schultz, Denmark with Grand Admiral Frederiksen (I had to look it up lmao), and Canada with Supreme Commander Trudeau. All of them are actively involved in passing legislation against socialists and Muslims. All of them are involved in gathering Muslims into re-education camps. When socialists protested their respective governments for starting to become capitalist, they were run over by tanks. Also, all of these governments prevent their citizens from accessing the internet outside their own countries. Agreed! Very fascist indeed!

Fidel Castro is morally superior to every US president.

Counterpoint: Fidel is the reason Trudeau exists

Carter also jumpstarted neoliberalism rot monetization and the drive to privatize. Willingly laid the foundation for Reagan.

Supplied arms to support genocide in Indonesia, among other crimes. Him building homes now is just some light penance before he's shipped off to hell. https://fair.org/media-beat-column/jimmy-carter-and-human-rights-behind-the-media-myth/

Set up all the groundwork for funding the Mujahideen terrorists in Afghanistan, the funding of the dictatorship and death squads in El Salvadore, setting up the groundwork for the fuckery Reagan did with Iran-Contra.

Prepare for the 14year Olds on hexbear to come in and pretend that China has a great government

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the Chinese government is totally very democratic and is receptive to the criticism of its citizens! They never censor words and topics they don't like on their social media platforms!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You know, that actually makes sense. 14-year-olds. It would explain a lot about hexbears.

OP determining whether to believe the US about socialist movements

us-foreign-policy

Also look up double genocide theory and stop trivializing the holocaust by calling communists fascists.

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

OP is not calling communists fascists. OP is calling the dictators pretending to be communist, fascists!

The initial meme included basically all communist countries, they mean communists.

Also which communist countries had dictators again?

This meme is against the initial meme.

China, North Korea

This meme is against the initial meme.

The initial meme made fun of being against those countries as a socialist. This meme is against that idea. Ergo...

China, North Korea

When?

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

When?

Always has been. Government taking control of every action of citizens is dictatorship. Theese people have total power of the country

.....Ergo...

What??

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

Always has been. Government taking control of every action of citizens is dictatorship. Theese people have total power of the country

The DPRK and China both don't have parties that are in any way capable of controlling every action of their citizenry. They both have massive grassroots democratic institutions. Hell, look up whole process peoples democracy and the taean work system.

what

The initial meme made fun of being against those countries as a socialist. This meme is against that idea. Ergo... the meme is against all those socialist countries.
