Someone give me a long list of communities to join and which ones to avoid. I don’t wanna be near the tankies. Thank you!

    any support I’ve seen has been critical, lib instances often straight up uncritically support US empire and call that anti-authoritarianism

      We’re not taking about the US, we’re talking about China Russia and North Korea. When I asked why Russia was justified in invading Ukraine, I got dozens of people arguing with me that it was good actually. If you agree with them, then I don’t really have much more to talk with you about, you’re just wrong.

        From checking the modlog you got banned like two years ago because you couldn’t stop saying slurs and insulting people. Additionally you clearly support the israeli occupation under the banner of being ‘anti-authoritarian’, the sentiment is mutual.

          I think they consider tankie a slur, so that’s probably it. I didn’t see the mod logs, so thanks for looking it up.

                ☑ genocide apologist

                ☑ insults other peoples intelligence as an argument

                ☑ passive aggressive misgendering

                  You not familiar with the phrase? The gender neutral ‘man’, analogous to dude?

                  And why genocide apologist when I specify said it was wrong and I’m against it? I don’t think you’re making a good argument.

                    you’re against genocide until the people being genocided fight back, then you concern troll about ‘terrorism’ like the people dropping US bombs aren’t terrorists.

                    you certainly weren’t one of the ones calling for an end to aid for Israel, you call them ‘tankies’

          I don’t support Israel in Gaza, what gave you that impression? Anyway, do you think Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was justified?

              And you got from that that I support Israel in their genocide?!? Both sides can be terrible and have gross humanitarian and moral issues.

                  That isn’t how logic works. What are you arguing? That every action of Hamas ever was entirely good and justified?

                    it’s the duty of an occupied people to resist their occupation and genocide, that doesn’t make them terrorists. the people delivering US weapon systems are the terrorists.

                    do you condemn the United States?
