Really? You don't see how "poor unarmed tanks killed by violent protesters and their terrifying grocery bags" falsely implies the tanks acted violently?

What were you trying to say by that sentence then? Just a meaningless remark?

Strangely, I'm not surprised at all that a LW user can't read

Here's an archive link lmao

Nelson Mandela bombed railways, was in South Africa's communist party, worked with Cuba's communist government, and sabotaged the South African government to overthrow apartheid.

If he did any of that right now, liberals would be calling him a "tankie". And they did indeed insult him back then when he did so. It's always after the fact that liberals admit these people were in the right.

They banned !vegan@lemmy.world's mods too recently (they made a post about it), and they still haven't unblocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

No leftist should be on .world lmao. The admins are all shitlibs

What can I do to help?

Damn you could probably write a whole ass book on What Is To Be Done

And that difference being that they're not moderated much at all, which results in the aforementioned hate groups taking over.

It's literally the opposite of those unmoderated sites, what the fuck are you talking about?

That instance is very strict about quickly removing and banning any transphobes, pro-capitalists, nazis etc. Take a look through their modlog.

I don't have kids, not very good with them as you can see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was like OP though when I was 17 too, so coming back a bit older might work after reading through all the great resources provided in these comments

edit: im 17 and i hate communism

Come back to Lemmy when you're a bit older and more educated lol

The irony of complaining about "disinformation" while spamming disinformation yourself lmao

The only people who would make an entire community about shitting on leftists are conservatives, liberals or closet liberals

Yeah I don't get why people support those fighting against genocide

Don't worry, China isn't capitalist like the US. Their economic numbers actually reflect improving living conditions.

You're telling me that investing in the real economy instead of an overinflated real estate sector (that shouldn't be for speculation in the first place anyway) actually works? Who could've seen this coming :0

So are you concerned about the people in the DPRK then? You realize sanctions do nothing but harm those people right?

Or do you think the supposed dictators of the country would take the damage from the sanctions instead of pushing it onto the working class population?

You mean the country that the US killed 20% of the population and destroyed all infrastructure of? Then proceeded to sanction to hell because it dared to not be capitalist and allow the US's capitalist class to extract from it?

Every day the US regime — the most warmongering nation in the world that's currently committing a genocide in Palestine right now — survives is a crime against humanity. What has the DPRK done other than trying to survive under the brutal US sanctions that does nothing but harm its working class population?

Think you didn't read it thoroughly enough. That text is talking about national "bolsheviks", so just nazis.

"What would happen if capital succeeded in smashing the Republic of Soviets? There would set in an era of the blackest reaction in all the capitalist and colonial countries, the working class and the oppressed peoples would be seized by the throat, the positions of international communism would be lost."

The GDR called western govs' habit of pinkwashing their imperialism — only possible because non-imperial core countries are the victims of colonialism are thus less economically stable, which is generally correlated with LGBT rights — the "political misuse of homosexuals" and had started improving LGBT rights and protections in the 80s.

If the Soviet bloc wasn't overthrown afterwards, I'm sure the rest of the Soviet states would've followed suit. Probably part of why Cuba did so too.

The USSR would've simply directly funded and/or militarily supported Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. And they did do so with with the PFLP until the USSR was overthrown.

Though ig two superpowers militarily supporting opposide sides has the risk of just turning the place into a warzone like what happened with Afghanistan.
