Like, I remember as recently as 2016, that term was just used as a mocking term for weird larpers. Now, it's used as a term for people they want to purge from the left (yes, I'm using those words. How they're acting is literally the definition of purging, it doesn't have to include violence).

    Told some poster that che is a symbol of liberation worldwide, and he was wholly convinced that he was a “war criminal” who killed queer people by firing squad

    They hate acknowledging this, because it might lead them to realize that their :lmayo: opinions about AES aren't shared worldwide and that in places where people are victims of imperialism, the same people they hate (Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Fidel, Che, Ho Chi Minh, etc.) are heroes to millions.
