This is in a thread in Hexbear
Tankies are often so caught up in campist nonsense that they can’t fathom that someone being anti-communist doesn’t mean they’re pro-capitalist.
That’s even before we get into whether they can be considered communists or they’re just coopting the label like ancaps do with anarchism and libertarianism
What’s an ancap? Anticapitalist? Do anticapitalists, who exist outside of and within all left wing ideologies, tend to coopt those labels somehow? I feel like I’m missing something lol
I think it stands for “anarchist capitalist”, as in, there should be no financial regulation/employee protection
Ahh I see, thank you
That sounds like Libertarian with more sylables.
If you’re in the US, then yes, they also call themselves that for some reason
Yeah libertarian I’ve heard before for sure. Mega yikes lol
Also that what they preach is nothing like communism as theorized by Marx. It’s brain dead authoritarianism with a dash of communist fanfiction.

I didn’t ban this user and their ban is an instance one. They must’ve violated the instance-wide rules, probably hate speech.
I reported them in another thread for Holocaust relativization. Might be partially from that. However log it says the .zip admin was fed up with compast spouting nonsense.
Well, socialists, anarhists and a shitload of other things exist.
Yeah even of communism was the only objectively correct stance, someone could still believe in other things without loving capitalism. It doesn’t even make sense in that regard.

There have been no successful anarchist revolution and anarchy is about state not economy, communism is about both so its like comparing apples to oranges
Now explain away the history of communists killing anarchists after the revolution.

Those were the times. Guildo was a scumbag who kept defending Stalin and he was so easy to bait too. Like you only had to mention Soviet atrocities and Guildo would come out of the framework to defend Stalin.
Also the mods were democratically elected.
MatheI mean Guildo didn’t like that.Great badge of honor, Aunty rainbows!
The funniest part of this to me is that they think this is a “quiet part”.
