"Red-brown alliance" is a term that was used to slander the CPUSA for its politics on Cuba and the USSR, to slander the USSR for making a treaty with Hitler (Matt Christman did this recently btw he called it an alliance, you all have goopy brains). You're repurposing it against people who are literally just brown-brown. There's no red-brown. Goddamnz

It's like "no genocide denial" - sure it sounds nice to you in your imagination, but it has history. In reality it means banning everyone who denies Stalin & Mao killed 50 billion people, banning everyone who points out China isn't sterilizing Uyghurs, wholeheartedly eating the Victims of Communism Foundation propaganda or you don't get to speak.

My post on the "no red brown alliance" banner should not have been removed. I got a lot of incredibly smug and condescending responses and the site kept hanging when I tried to reply, it didn't seem like anyone actually read it properly.

You seem to think that because non-Marxists like Red Scare, Maupin, and Infrared (all weirdos into Heidegger who have NEVER read Marxist writing! JUST LIKE ZIZEK! Stop entertaining these clowns!), or the deranged Fourth Political Theory people exist that means there is some tendency for alliance between Marxists and fascists.

Ironically the first time I heard this phrase was from Alexander Reid-Ross (before he got ousted from Portland State for sexual harassment) posting about the Chapo subreddit, using analytics to prove they were fascist by association. The same way he used dubious anonymous twitter account examples to pin guilt by association on things. Also was used during the Iraq war & Syrian war as slander against antiwar communists, it’s the exact same kind of thing as “why do communists think russia is based??? It’s not communist silly!” thing but applied to Saddam Hussein and Assad. Really just goes to show how well Twitch reality show politics trojan horses NATO bullshit into people’s minds

          I'm actually more online than any of you I just don't hang out in the online equivalent of an anime club 24/7 and i get a normal amount of oxygen to my brain. It's fine. Most women are more online than me. Doesn't interfere with their social life. It's not a binary online good online bad thing

                Advice to not use the term red brown alliance?

                Also you really need to chill, you've already been misogynist and fatphobic in this thread and will be banned for that alone. So if you come back, please try and engage with the community more respectfully and try to take your thoughts and express them more clearly and stop taking things so personally.

                If you start shit slinging on this site with a new account you will absolutely be relentlessly bullied and that's a good thing.

                  Advice to stop interpreting everyone who disagrees with you as an untermenchen chud. I am better than all of you in almost every way. I don't want to bring that into this.

                    Yeah, you need to chill. This is legitimately unhinged and absolutely insanely dumb individualist nonsense.

                      Oh that's meant to be hyperbole I just don't get the whole fake "dirtbag" machismo interspersed with passive aggression which is used the way liberals use Office Gifs.

                        You don't understand this site culture at all. The dirt bag machismo is absolutely a joke reserved exclusively for anyone who comes in and starts shit.

                        It's the white blood cells of Hexbear. If you're getting bullied here, it's because you haven't lurked enough and learned how to bring up discourse like this. Just running into a thread and telling at people is childish. Make an effort post and explain and people will listen.
