comrades, the Protracted People’s War against the liberal hive and haven for bigoted chasers that is lemmy.blahaj.zone has succeeded! blahaj has fallen! or at least fallen off.
really tho, i just checked in on their site to see how its been since defederating. that was only 3 days ago btw! it feels like its been a week lol. their daily user count has fallen by over 1/6th since defed. and while this could be attributed to less traffic during the work week, the posting situation there is abysmal. in the past 24 hours, 78% of the posts came from c/196, making it difficult to tell that their instance is a dedicated queer space. and while they have gained ~30 users since defederation, we have gained over 200! its pretty much just 196 at this point.
while its sad to see a queer space fail, i suspect its for the best. i hope all the anti-capitalists there find their way here, as many already have. especially the trans folk there, its genuinely sad that they feel like they have to accept chasers in their space in order to have a community that accepts them. that is the difference between liberal tolerance and socialist liberation— tolerance allows for objectification and marginalization, while liberation demands dignity and equality. may all the blahaj gender diverse who oppose capitalism find their way to c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns!!!!
stuff like this are the best “dunks” the 196 reactionaries can manage:
this meme is weak and displays their ignorance. you cant have a conversation with ppl like the OP. they will just bombard you with thought-terminating cliches. gulag gulag! Uyghurs! hologramodor! no food! purges! NKVD KGB Stasi! free Tibet so they can have their wholesome slaves again! Taiwan is a legitimate state!
countless hexbears would be willing and even enthusiastic to have a good faith, respectful, nuanced discussion about these topics with them. but they dont want that. they want to roll in their own shit like a pig with massive balls. the good ones will find us, or other socialist spaces. but for such a small instance, there are too many scratched and soon-to-be scratched liberals for us to do any good with federation.
I don't really want to create another thread about their crappy instance, so I'll just add this as a comment here instead:
Is Azov Neo-Nazi? CW: Fascist apologia for a neonazi paramilitary.
oh god, pass the eye bleach! what is is with liberals and whitewashing nazis?
i'll add another link to the pile lol
Guessing game: Russia's moon mission crashed. Whose fault is it?
some of the commenters act like Russia is still communist, it's weird.
Definitely not sus
Yeah, because the leaders of Azov were dispersed amongst the armed forces of Ukraine, effectively spreading the ideological nucleus of Azov like seeds in the wind to take root across the entirety of the nation's forces.
"Deserve scrutiny"
Oh boy, here comes the next wave of liberals tutting and wagging their fingers at the leader of a military group who literally has Nazi tattoos. That'll surely get him to change his fascist beliefs.
The fact that Neo-Nazis "have no political power" (political power, apparently, comes out the bottom of a ballot box to these people 🙄) is ahistorical liberal cope.
The Nazi party didn't have "political power" and yet they rode their paramilitary dominance in the Weimar Republic to being installed at the levers of power in the republic in order to stage a coup because they were never capable of achieving political power through liberal democracy.
So this whole notion that "the Nazi problem in the Ukraine is, like, totally a non-issue bro" because they can't get themselves elected is just incredibly ignorant of what happens when fascists have enough guns (and political influence outside of holding seats in a parliament).
...do they honestly think that the fascist forces in the Ukraine would somehow be above staging a coup and seizing power because fascists are bound to adhering to the rules of liberal democracy?
What world do these people live in??
ace scholarly work
How could the brigade founded by Nazis and composed of people using Nazi symbols and greasing bullets with pig fat specially for Muslim enemies ever be Nazis? That's just absurd. After all, it received funding from a Jewish oligarch
who also may or may not have supported Zelensky's campaign
