I’d say having a senile old man as the head of a country is much more ‘outrageous’

Spoken like a true shitlib

Lemm.ee: Where you can be a fascist but still complain about other instances

Those editors should probably check their phones for signs of tampering…

I say that only half-jokingly

People on twitter are saying he’s actually a far-right nationalist hypocrite who owns properties in the US. Makes sense to ban him then ig; just one of those fake internet celebrities that they occasionally ban probably.

But at what cost 😢

He’s gonna ban american and “israeli” maintainers too then, I guess?

“Is Lebanon part of Israel’s promised territory?” — Jerusalem Post, 5 days ago

They’ve removed it since. Too mask-off to release in english I guess.

US proxies be proxy’ing.

Never forget the White Terror the ROC subjected the native Taiwanese to — specially leftists and even liberals — when colonizing it.

Wild that they let some nazis survive. Hope they at least put them to good use for labor as reparations.

In the capitalist countries they were given cushy leadership positions instead lmao as you’d expect

“The question of fascism” is already answered by shitlibs like you and macron. And your answer is “yes” as always.

Just liberals siding with fascists over leftists like they always do.

Finally, a sane LW user. The amount of projection from westerners in this thread is ridiculous.

Lemmy.world already exists unfortunately

I do miss some of the subreddits though

Fucking dumbass didn’t even do 2 seconds of googling lmfao

Just as capitalist states are “authoritarian” against working class interests, socialist states are “authoritarian” against capitalist interests.

The state is a tool for one class to oppress another. The goal of (most) communists is to transition from capitalism — where the capitalist class is in power — to a stateless, classless communist society via socialism — where the working class is in power.

Public perception of which is more “authoritarian” therefore depends on which class is currently in power and is able to manufacture consent, and that is the capitalist class in the vast majority of the world right now since the USSR’s overthrow.

• What is “Authoritarianism”?

It’s defense because the US military industrial complex is “defending” its profit margins by creating instability far enough away that it won’t affect them, but that they can profit off of

Lmfao

Fucking finally. Was disgusting hearing Erdogan pretend to be pro-Palestine while being a primary trading partner of the occupation. I guess the internal pressure from the population is finally getting to them.
