    “Like China, our struggle sessions will purify The Party and bring unity to our socialist utopia”

    Also, isn’t Beehaw like, a bunch of fuckin’ hippies? Like the kind of people you’d have to be insane to call fascists?

      Hexbear users are pretty stupid because they almost exclusively alienate would-be supporters, or at least close allies.

      They fundamentally cannot see the difference between any non-communist liberals (left) and fascism.

        Liberals? Fascists. Social democrats? Fascists. Democratic socialists? Fascists. Anarcho-communists? Fascists.

        They just believe anyone who isn’t with them is against them. It’s a common human failing.

        I’d like to point out that liberals are considered left in US, but center right pretty much anywhere else.

          Hence the parenthesis saying “left”. Hexbear is exclusively full of American users that pejoratively use the term ‘lib’, so it’s important in this context.

          So calling Socdems “filthy liberals” and telling socdems they’re going up against the wall… is still a great way to scare off potential allies.

      Tankies have an incredibly black and white view of the world. Anyone that isn’t with them is a fascist. It’s also why they can’t accept that their favorite authoritarians have practiced imperialism, oppression of minority groups, and lots of killing. “Stalin believed in the same economic policy that I do, so therefore he never did a bad thing.”
