Look at you being authoritarian! You must be a fascist!

Hahahaha this shit is why nobody goes to your birthday party.

Fedora workstation can be a real nice no trouble install.

Personally love to add pop-shell extension to GNOME - if you use big monitors, it’s an awesome autotiler.

What you’re doing is no different from when the literal fascists say “You can’t just call anyone who disagrees with you a fascist!” I don’t. I call fascists fascists.

Actually it’s not. Because you’re calling people who are left-wing fascists. So either you don’t know what fascism is, or you don’t give a shit. Your nonsense about methodology rather than ideology is, per your own statements, meaningless.

And if you’re about to

You really do love playing with your little strawman dolls, don’t you?

If you’re incapable of making that distinction

No, your thought is just confused and stupid.

Have fun with your gymnastics to justify your defense of the status quo. Your arguments are just “nuh uh! tankies bad! everyone I don’t like is tankies!”. So nothing of value is lost when I block you now.

Tankies are fucking assholes, fascists are fucking assholes. Both things can be true at once

Yeah, because you disagree with two things doesn’t make them equal. You want to bitch about tankies, go right ahead. You want to claim they’re equal to fascists, you’re doing the same stupidity liberals do with their horseshoe nonsense, and for the same reason - it lets you take the status quo as a best of all worlds, since anyone who opposes it is obviously an evil authoritarian asshole.

they think anyone who isn’t on their side is on the opposite side

I’m not a tankie, yet you keep referring to me as such. So.

I was criticizing tankies for accusing Mamdani of being a fascist, which is a ridiculous assertion on all levels

It is. You’re also pretending some schizo posting is an article in Pravda, which somehow still exists and is the party line. You make a strawman of what tankies believe, then claim anyone who disagrees with you is such, and pretend that’s not equally ridiculous.

I’m not so fucking stupid that I think communists and fascists believe in the same ideals

The terms you use certainly imply that. So you should probably stop doing that if you don’t want to be considered stupid in that regard.

Cause I totally invented the term “red fash”

Oh, don’t worry, nobody’s accusing you of actually putting enough thought into things to invent that.

Lenin killed a bunch of communists after they beat him in an election

The bait and swtich of “all power to the Soviets” to “ummm actually the Party is the people” was actually Trotsky’s particular bullshit, but since the Bolsheviks took it, they own it.

so tankies gobble his dick

And you consider everyone who doesn’t swallow your particular brand of ineffective purity a tankie, it seems.

I don’t agree with plenty of things from the Bolsheviks - the critiques of Luxembourg I think were particularly apt and prescient. But, with that said, I also don’t let my very basic disagreement with that justify alliance with something far worse, the capitalist and fascist forces that the left as a whole opposes. And nonsense like “red fash” does exactly that. And usually seems to follow the Parenti phrased criticism of only allowing respect for revolutions that fail. You’re validating horseshoe theory, the most nonsense liberal rewriting of history.

You want, you can go kill all the Bolsheviks you really want to after the revolution. Until then, it’s the same counterproductive and idiotic posturing that the Stalinist for Fashion idiots demonstrate, except with a black flag instead of a red one.

NPR has gone to shit since the Bush admin. It parrots way too much government propaganda. Look to Pacifica.

Awwww look, the little chickenhawk is getting mad!

Better watch out, or he’ll get a conscript to come fight me!

Seriously, you’re a piece of shit and a coward, and you know it. Go fuck yourself.

So, you’re not heading out the help them then, my little chickenhawk? You claiming it’s genocide makes your cowardice worse, not better.

Easy enough to decide the territorial integrity of Ukraine is worth other people being conscripted to die from your couch, I guess.

As for your name calling, it’s pretty funny to call a Titoist a tankie, while you take sides in ethnic conflicts. But I’m sure the history is wasted on you.

Because America bad

The US is bad, my little “anarchist”. Maybe you should focus more on the genocides and imperialism your taxes are paying for .

You’re not giving critical support to the people. You’re giving it to the government.

You want to go support that war, they’re looking for volunteers, my little chickenhawk. Why don’t you go relieve a conscript, since you think the struggle is so important?

To be fair, the kid did not say “I’m walking here”

Yeah, I’m not a tankie, my little chickenhawk. Just an actual communist who understands “no war but class war”. But I guess cheering on more troops into the grinder seems fine to you from far away.

Živio Tito, smrt fašizmu, sloboda narodu, i jebem ti majku.

Nah dear, the horseshoe nonsense is something you seem to be partial to. “Tankies”, not so much.

Can you do a Windows VM for that?

I’ve usedJetBrains on Linux for years, it’s a dream.

I’m a developer who uses both Linux and Mac (because of company machine) for work. Directly comparing them every day, I’m just much more happy with the Gnome (with popshell) experience than Mac all the time

As long as someone else gets drafted to die in the trenches, right?

You’re either disingenuous or beyond naive about ethnic and nationalistic conflict.

The irony of the use in respect to Ukraine is that they’re calling anyone not wanting to send tanks a tankie.

They don’t.

There’s two main criticisms of Zohran that come from the left.

One is that while good, his victory is going to be limited because the mayor has little power to enact systematic change. The keeping of Tisch (likely to avoid a war with Hochul he can’t win) is a point for this

The second is that it reinforces the Democratic party which actively opposes socialism, by giving it a face of that. And that in that way it also serves to dilute actual revolutionary energy, etc.

You don’t have to agree with those arguments - I don’t fully. But those are them. But considering the person here is hitting a shitlib trifecta - screaming about tankies and horseshoe theory, conspiracy theories about Russian bots, and claiming “nuance” when caught in obvious contradictions - theyre not going to make an actual argument. Just claim ownership of the left for the center, again.

Yes dear, everyone that doesn’t agree with your nonsense is a tankie, and therefore wrong.

You were saying about ad hominems?
