    Don’t mistake those fascists for socialists. They’re just cheering for the other empire and lying about it. They shit on left-leaning groups because those groups stand between them and the totalitarian regime they desire.

      Or we can just accept the vulnerabilities of pluralistic ideals. Not every joke is an all out attack and mask off reveal. Your comment inceptions the leftist fighting by being so offended by it.

        Ah, yes, jokes like “Russia is right” and “Tiananmin square is American propaganda.” Gosh darn my easily offended sensibilities, sparking wars between like-minded leftists, all because I can’t take a joke.

        Fuck off.

          Yeah thats far fucking different than “leftists fight”. Honestly his joke was funny. But you’re right. We’re going to be under the heel eternally because of this. Thats totally destroying all leftist movements worldwide because we joke in our own spaces.
