Gets it in one.

There's a reason everyone is currently demonizing liberal ideology instead of standing up for the rights that the conservatives are working to strip away.

[-] finderscult@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 month ago

Liberal ideology is a regressive conservative ideology.

It was progressive three centuries ago. It's not anymore, it's outlived it's usefulness.

Unfortunately tankies throw out the good parts of liberalism along with the bad, and endorse throwing people in gaol for wrongthink.

[-] finderscult@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago

There really aren't any good parts to liberalism. If you're a liberal and the current year starts with a 2, you're a monster. Like full on, need to be forcefully reducated kinda monster.

But to your second point, all nations, societies, and groups need to do that. It's a fundamental aspect of society. There hasn't been a society yet that doesn't.

Not being arrested for publicly disagreeing with the government is a good thing.

The college students divest israel protests?

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone -1 points 1 month ago

Yup, America also bad. I suppose you could say the difference is that America pretends to be good, while China is openly totalitarian.

[-] finderscult@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 month ago

Depends on the disagreement. If you think the country should burn and it's people suffer and are advocating for that, you should maybe be arrested.

Speaking of bad parts of liberalism: it's wrong to throw Hitler into jail for spreading nazi thought

Look at what your values actually are

Jesus fuck tankies are fucking morons. Do you actually think anybody buys your shitty argument?

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 month ago

If my argument is shitty, please engage with it instead of mugging for a crowd you assume is already on your side

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

No, I'm not going to spend effort engaging in good faith with an argument clearly made in bad faith.

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 month ago

You're nothing but thought terminating cliches and smugness.
