Translation:

My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.

They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.

I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.

    people like you, tankies, that are as communist as the nazis were socialist.

    Lul.

    Fuck off. Don't make me drag out the chart showing that literally every other nation in Europe had some kind of agreement with the Nazis before the USSR finally concluded a non-aggression pact. Or the chart showing how the USSR spent most of the 30s trying to arrange any pact against the fascists with anyone only to be systematically shut out by a Europe that believed the fascists would attack the Soviets first and then the rest of Europe could swoop in and feast on the carcass.

    History happened. We remember even if no one else will. Take this fantasy fiction shit somewhere else, preferably to hell.

    Also, "authoritarianism" is a term with literally no semantic content beyond "Those guys are meanies". It's only meaning is to define another party as "bad people" in contrast to one's own party who are "good people". There are no definable or stable attributes that distinguish "authoritarians" from any "not-authoritarian" group except the relation of one's own group to another opposing group. And that opposing "authoritarian" group is often as not a simulacra or confabulation that exists no where but within the cultural views of the "Good guys".
