Ok, that's a new one. Calling you a fascist for saying Lenin was a Marxist...
I can usually take these liberal takes in stride, but this is like they invented some new kind of weapon. I feel this weird itch to engage with them somehow, and that's not healthy.
It's a genuine drain trying to feed Lemmy.world's radlibs with any theory of any kind. Usually I try to avoid saying scary words and they will ultimately agree with the logic and analysis, which gives me hope that some can be convinced to actually educate themselves on leftism, but there's such a strong anticommunist slant on Lemmy.world that it's usually met with absurd claims with no basis in reality. Just knee-jerk vibes.
