The fediverse has anti-social personality disorder 😁

You're not making a response to my argument - this is a copy paste of some sort.

I am arguing that communism and fascism are factually different.

You have not made an argument that they are factually similar, just trotted out the usual unsourced western claims against communism.

Most defederations are blocking tiny dead instances to avoid bot spam. It'd be easy to make an explanation in most cases!

Absolutely hilarious that half the fediverse is preemptively running scared of hexbear (with no real reason), and we're worried about the 'grad being too ML for them.

Tankies, fascists. Close enough to the same thing tbh.

"Nazis, people who liberated Auschwitz, what's the difference?"

On a more serious note, fascism is a particular political movement with particular features. Communism is also a particular political movement, with different features. They are different.

You're welcome to think they're equally bad (you're wrong), but they're factually not the same thing.

They've been working really hard to bring it back in line with regular Lemmy. They have some developers on their side!

Hexbear? They're left-unity. That's just a lie.

Yeah, Robert Evans is pretty suspect. I remember liking the initial "It Could Happen Here", though.

There's some interesting bits to it, but it's basically speculative fiction.

I wouldn't be surprised if do we see some armed clashes between the full-fash types and the colonized people they're trying to terrorize.

I think poor proles is neat.

I think a "collapse scenario" is quite probable, but I think some specific dominos would need to tip in order for it to happen. No real clue when that could happen.

I think any of the huge climate-related weather issues we've seen almost had the potential to develop into huge long-term infrastructure issues with massive loss of life, specifically:

• NW heat dome in 2021.
• Texas ice storm power failures in 2021.
• Various California forest fires.
• Various gulf hurricanes.

The U$ doesn't have the ability to handle something to the level of Hurricane Katrina at this point, and much worse is more probable with climate change.

I also think a few things could trigger it as well, like:

• Engaging in or losing a peer conflict - the internal political will just isn't there.
• Full de-dollarization - the U$ is a parasite economy, and needs to be propped up.

I don't think it would take much. The U$ population is insanely stressed and wound tight, and beginning to lose the benefits they saw from being part of the empire. The capitalists basically can't allow any meaningful changes to the material conditions of people who need it here.

No real clue as to when. I've got 2025 on my dream board.

Just make an account on a server that doesn't federate porn. Lemmy.ml or midwest.social don't.

Lemmygrad doesn't either, but it's understandable if it's not for you.

Note: tankies can suck a dick,

This is homophobic.

Text is hard! I should've been clearer!

Why respond honestly to a response when you can instead grossly misconstrue it and reply with a straw man?

I'm commenting in support of the person I'm replying to. I don't understand what you mean by this.

"Why don't you ask people from Socialist countries what they thought"?

"Wait, not those people".

"Lenin" was a pseudonym, wasn't it?

I'd vote to use the pseudonym.

Libraries throw away a shitload of donations. Donate or sell what you can, if you want.

Don't feel bad about throwing away old books. Books published now don't last very long, and anything we have is already archived somewhere anyway.

You still haven't sourced the claims you've made.

Calling me a troll won't change the fact that you're refusing to support your own arguments.

Why is that?

Go home lemmygradder, you're drunk.

You're from lemmy.world. This is not your home either.

How does the US occupy half the peninsula?

The U$ military occupies South Korea to block reunification.

I'm not going to prove your arguments for you - that's your job.

Or are your arguments based more on a vague cloud of propaganda than on fact?

All you need to do is source your claims.

The U$ still militarily occupies Korea.

It would just be a mindless slaughter with no real gain.

That's not guaranteed. The U$ did not win the Korean war.
