    Yeah, but that sounds quite liberal, and things “liberal” are a big no-no on this website 🗿(even if we’re talking socdems or demsocs).

      I have been told by .ml users right out that socdems are basically Nazis and therefore I am the enemy.

          Dude… it was the comment that caused me to block the entire .ml instance months ago. I’m not even sure I can see it anymore, because I blocked the instance. You’re welcome to look through my history and look at replies to a comment from me that said something along the lines of: “I’m open about who I am and what I believe, it’s all right there in my profile.” And them posting that my profile says SocDem and from there on it escalates until I suddenly stop responding, because I have registered that they are arguing in bad faith and that I have simply had spend enough time talking to a wall that had no interest in listening to anything I had to say and just wanted to demonize me.

          So go look if you want, but I haven’t got the time and I don’t think I can see that string of comments without unblocking .ml.

        Just don’t ask them why Stalin, who first got the idea of calling socdems “social fascists” and declaring them to be the enemy, was so cozy with actual nazis up until 1941. 🌝

          Yeah you’ll get a whole ass wall of text that would be an education in history and mid 20th C geopolitics if if you bothered to read it but you won’t bcs then it would be harder to go “lol, commies bad, Molotop Ribbletribble, Tinyman^2, muh US State Dept narrative!”

            I mean, I’ve read Soviet history books and encyclopaedias in my childhood. I know Soviet narrative of history and geopolitics, and I also live among living sources on life in USSR, so I’m afraid I don’t really require “education” on that topic from westerners.

              living sources on life in USSR

              Your Uncle who was 12 in 1991 and describes the horrors of the rise of neoliberalism as the fault of communism?
