    I love a lot of their stuff like the railway construction and the socialism. Their political structure is atrocious, though.

      lemm.ee posters and talking out their ass on subjects they never once investigated; name a more iconic duo that isn't .world or .works users doing the same shit

      EDIT: I love how cacs like this talk out the side of their neck on some straight skullduggery and walk away as soon as they start getting clowned on

        No one can convince me that instance isn't run primarily by Feds. Every time I see a couple of brainless and/or straight fascists takes on here that are heavily downvoted the user name has lemme. ee at the end.

            It's barsoap, one of the most notorious lockheed left out there, and while i usually refrain from calling random people "feds" because internet is full of unpaid liberal idiots, this one does glow up pretty bright.

          "Authoritarian" is a word made up by fascist, settler-colonial crackers to simultaneously fob off condemnation onto others, and to distance the minds of their public from the crimes the crackers have committed, still commit, and will be committing tomorrow; try again with real words this time, peckerwood. I don't respect or acknowledge cracker-talk-- and "authoritarian" is downright McCarthy-flavor crackerish.

            Adding population for comparison:

            US: 2.2M prisoners / 340M population
            China: 1.6M prisoners / 1.4B population

          Name one way China is "authoritarian" that doesn't apply a hundredfold to the US.

          Would you mind explaining? I heard China uses “democratic centralism” which seems to give people far more of a say.

          On the offchance you are open to learning, please read "On Authority". It is readily available online and is practically the length of a brochure.

          Anything longer than a headline tends to exceed the average lib's attention span, but there are always those rare folks that can be convinced. Go ahead, own a tankie and prove me wrong.
