the anti-Russia war propaganda on the grounds that "well really, Putin, Assad, Juche, Iran, Cuba, America, the Soviet Union are all equally bad..." and devolves into liberal both-sidesism, I hope you remember that you're responsible for helping axe a principled commitment to anti-US imperialism. I was never being ironic, fuck you and fuck this sub. You idiots made me like Stalin more (who i literally think is bad) because I realize now he was essentially right about social fascism.
I miss u vris plz keep posting in tankie-heaven
Edit: As i'm sobering up I realize I am an old man and should provide some context. There was a time when we were on this evil website called reddit.com and when every chapo was young and hopeful and we all believed Bernie would have won (in 2016) and was going to win in 2020, except for this one poster named vris who was frequently downvoted for being a tankie, even though like all tankies, vris was correct about everything. This was their most famous post, and possibly their last post on the subreddit. Vris was my introduction to Leninism and while not many remember them, a legendary poster.
Hangover edit: vris was also an asshole and did return after this post
Vris was constantly downvoted for being an asshole, not for being a tankie.
This was their most famous post, and possibly their last post on the subreddit
I am 99% sure vris got unbanned within a week or two by Omhiglob, who came back after a groundless suspension by the reddit admins to unban a bunch of people and ban the two founders of r/stupidpol.
Stalin was good but, like every socialist leader, we should learn from his mistakes
Second, he should actually been like the way the history books portray him. He should have had dissenting parties crushed. He should have purged the entire fucking red army
like:
- stopping at Berlin
- Article 121
- leaving Khrushchev alive
- uhhhh
- idk
Wow beatnik doesn't even remember this and he was a CTH mod
You idiots made me like Stalin more (who i literally think is bad)
now we're cooking with dialectics
I hope you remember that you’re responsible for helping axe a principled commitment to anti-US imperialism.
Cause posts on the internet prevent US imperialism. 🙄 🙄 🙄
One of the problems that happens on here is that people don’t spend enough time interacting with human beings, and they put wayyyyy too much importance on internet posting. This happens with almost all tendencies.
damn I fell old yeah its from when communists were downvoted on the subreddit
eidet: also r/Latestagecapitalism was an explicitly ML subreddit
holy shit I cant imagine such a time, I arrived in the midst of the bernie campaign and was annihilated for being a sucdem lmao
That was a wild time lmao. LSC is like a pure socdem haven now
I remember the first one
I don't remember what side russiangreywolf was on tho
Nah when that post happened, they weren't usually downvoted, it's just that this person was kinda weird, case in point the pasta here lol
Lol honestly fuck you. Anticommunist sandwich prejudice does it again! Just go ahead and fucking bánh mì. As the "anti-tankie" "left" slowly but surely gives into the anti-Vietnam war propaganda on the grounds that "well really, a rice flour baguette, grilled pork, pâté, pickled carrots, cilantro, jalapeños, and aioli are all equally bad..." and devolves into liberal both-sidesism, I hope you remember that you're responsible for helping axe a principled commitment to cuilnary deliciousness. I was never being ironic, fuck you and fuck this sub. You idiots have made me like Ho Chi Minh more (who I literally think is amazing) because I realize now he was essentially right about sandwiches.
"social fascism" was used to kill fellow bolshevik revolutionaries. if liberal horseshoe theorists posting on reddit makes you this mad, well i find that sorta cute actually
