Many people on lemmy.ml deeply respect and admire authoritarian governments and organizations.
Iran, China, North Korea, Soviet Union…
The West has many flaws. But our flaws are nothing compared to these guys.
Iran hangs homosexuals. Iran shot 30,000 people in less than than 2 weeks. The Soviet Union had to build a fucking Iron wall to prevent people from escaping. The Soviets lied about the Chernobyl nuclear explosion. China censors the internet. China wants to eliminate Islam. North Korea is a totalitarian hellscape. Watching anime is a crime.
Why is lemmy.ml so fascinated with authoritarians?
Communists are absolutely interested in being politically effective.
Tankies and online lefties are only interested in the esthetic of communism. They are not interested in platforming the mechanisms to promote the change needed. It’s a fun game to toy and muse with but it has no direction or real world benefits. The discourse never branches out beyond the evils of western hegemony, because that would require concrete thinking and real world politicking, and we can’t have that, can we? That would mean an end to the fun little circus that is Lemmy.ml
You were specifically asked if you had any evidence to back up your claims, if you had any that would be a great opportunity to share it and prove yourself right. Unfortunately you have none because you’re completely full of shit.
Gotta love it when 🤡-level commenting calls somewhere else a circus lmao. Embarrassing level of effort here bucko.
Are you confusing communists shitposting online with communists organizing? Do you think the communists on Lemmy.ml only engage online and not in-person?
