The banning of Chapotraphouse has been a disaster for reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/l3k2a2/drama_in_rtherightcantmeme_as_moderator_stickies/
I entirely blame the stupid political compass for shit like this. There's even a part in the explanation where the authors claim Hitler and Stalin would have gotten along in a conversation about politics so long as they didn't mention economics. Yes, Hitler and Stalin, two enemy commanders in the largest war ever, got along in regards to politics.
Hitler would have jumped at the opportunity to ally with Churchill and FDR against Stalin. Anti-communism permeates everything Hitler wrote and said.
Surprise I made a post about that already with archive data lol https://hexbear.net/post/62712

I mean, even setting aside the absurdity of the claim, I'm just, like ...
Other than that, Mrs Lincoln, how was the play?
There's WW2 documentaries where they make Stalin out ti be this guy with a boy crush on Hitler when they made their little agreement to not go to war with each other. Who then gets all dumbfounded and depressed when Hitler attacks Russia anyway. They then gloss over all Russias exploits in the war and make it sound like they were getting their asses kicked the entire war.
Literally they looked at a political compass, that's literally all of the knowledge informing that opinion. Maybe they read a comment about "horseshoe theory" one time. These people are politically illiterate.
They're either politically illiterate or they're deliberately attempting to make right-wing libertarian views more attractive (my real suspicion)
I found it here:
"If you could get Hitler and Stalin to sit down together and avoid economics, the two diehard authoritarians would find plenty of common ground."

I love WW2 docs where they make Stalin out to be this naive man with a boy crush in Hitler who gets all depressed and dumbfounded when Hitler broker their little pwomise to not go to war.
Elsewhere in the thread:
There is also this constant shifting of goalposts from the Very-only Left.
VOL: "We want X."
Biden: "If elected, I'm going to do X."
VOL: "He's never actually going to do X."
Biden: is elected and does X
VOL: "He should have done more."
Ah yes, the famous and well-documented history of Democrats following through on their campaign promises. Very happy we have a public option, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are over, and Guantanamo Bay has been closed.
Well we're also concerned about the campaign promises we do think he'll keep, like paying cops more and "standing up to China."
pundits talk about that here and i think Fucking How, Also Why

does that explain it?
Tankie is whatever political tendency I don't like. No I won't be taking any questions.
“Bruh at this point the only left wing sub left not overrun by tankies is r/neoliberal“
I thought I couldn’t see worse than I’ve already seen on Reddit and yet there it is
Tankies basic position is that Hitler was only wrong because of his fiscal policy
I'm always saying this
I'd say I'm a classical tankie. I'm a little fiscally liberal and socially conservative.
She also propagandises for Chapo Chat in her subs.
The amount of angry libs who think they're leftist comments is worth it alone
bruh I'm fuckin owning these losers so hard in that thread, while I'm literally high, this shit is so easy get your asses in there and start knocking some lib heads :che-smile:
Thanks for this. This might be the Reddit thread I needed to scroll through to never want to go back again. That whole thread is just projection, sticking head in the sand, and deliberate misrepresentation of even just left of dem ideas.
Hope these morons have fun with their moral superiority when Dems continue their collaboration with fascists, do nothing to help the environment, slowing the war machine, getting people healthcare, solving the pandemic, or doing anything to help with growing poverty in this country. They will likely just pave the road to an even more fascist president in 2024.
I’ve already cut out 90% of that website minus the niche subs and think this will restrict me to only the friendly niche subs.
Libs mad libs mad. I've received so much abuse as a result of that SRD thread it's unreal. It's a troll farm.
