It really sounds like you're starting from he conclusion that America isn't authoritarian, and then tweaking your definition of authoritarian to insure that it agrees with you.

You should read some of your own comments.

Now you're just making things up whole cloth.

Lemmy.world and hexbear have literally never been federated, you're just lying through your teeth.

Yes they do use the same tactic of claiming that there's a genocide (against white people) and then calling anyone who points out the shortage of evidence a "genocide denier."

37 is indeed a good portion of 200, and when you add in the fact that you've already written off the entire UN, it's pretty clear where you stand on this.

What are you talking about? Political 'moderates' introduce and accept capital punishment and useful applications of brutality all the time.

No

Alright, it just really seemed like you were agreeing with the 'paid Chinese bots' guy.

Ah, my mistake.

I mean, you've already written off a good portion of the worlds countries, and the entire UN, as being Chinese apologists.

Brigading? Mate, we're federated; this post is on our feed.

Didn't the Canadian instance have to defed you because you wouldn't stop wishing violence on people?

No

Clearly

Yes, they were radical extremists. Anti-Nazi most certainly was no the default position in Nazi Germany.

You're universalizing your own experience onto others. As someone who's background isn't Western, I loath westerners telling me that I have to abide by their Overton window or else I'm an 'extremist'

I only have the unfortunate experience of encountering MAGA types who revel in using the term as a pejorative.

This is what I mean; there exists a huge amount of political thought outside of the extremely narrow, and from my perspective, extremist, USA political environment.

hurling personal attacks is unpleasant no matter who's doing it.

I can guarantee you from repeated personal experience that political 'moderates' hurl personal attacks with the best of them.

During slavery, being an abolitionist was a radical extremist position; does that mean abolitionists were like MAGA/nazis? During feudalism, being pro-democracy was a radical extremist position, does that mean that anti-monarchists were like MAGA/nazis. During the Nazi reign, being anti-Nazi was a radical extremist position, does that mean that anti-nazis were nazis?

Are you under the impression that MAGA people are the first and only people to disagree with liberals? Marxists have been doing that since long before Trump was born.

Doing Holocaust denial to own the commies.

I don't know what planet you live on, but it must be nice.

It was in reply to the now deleted post accusing trans hexbear users of not really being trans.
