        They love pretending loke Hitler, the universal symbol for evil, was a socialist. They fuckin’ love fascism and everything he did but they have to pretend like what they’re doing is different.

        They also have no idea what “liberal” means, but that’s the case with most words exceeding six letters.

          Similar to socialists being in denial over how antisemitism can get them to go along with fascists. People on the fringes of politics tend not to be able to see themselves for what they are. Communists and Fascists are both authoritarian just with a slightly different grift. But when the fascists play up the greedy capitalist jew angle, the socialists jump on board with fascism along it with the rest of the useful idiots.

            Are we playing the “socialism and communism are different things” game today? Because that’snnever fun.

            Authoritarians aren’t communists. They’re just appropriating the term.

              Authoritarianism isn’t something anyone should want so authoritarians need to make some kind of grift to convince people to go along with it. But it ultimately has the same result. Someone becomes dictator by promising to make a country stronger, while someone else becomes dictator by promising equal, it all ends the same.

              I mean China is obviously a fascist government today (no matter what they call themselves) but where was the revolution that caused this massive shift from the “far left” to the “far right”? There wasn’t one because it’s just authoritarianism, the only change was which propaganda is used to justify authoritarian power.

              Are we playing the anarchists and communists are the same thing game today? Communists absolutely can be authoritarian, anarchists can’t anarcho-communists aren’t but not all communists are true Scotsman anarcho-communists
