What about Dessalines, the founder of Lemmy?

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 34 points 2 weeks ago

He was busy at the Beijing Victory Parade.

I guess that's an exception.

Do you think Dessalines doesn't loath Trump, as much as any other lib/fascist?

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

I mean, he's to the left of netanyahu, so the assumption among centrists is that he's a trumpist.

Considering the time he, and the rest of the tankies, spend regurgitating Trump/Putin propaganda, and only ever complains about "libs" but never actual fascists, no I don't think so at all.

The biggest criticism we have of libs is that they enable fascism. Naturally, libs interpret calling them out for creating the machine and working with fascists the whole time, then handing the reigns to the fascists as somehow supporting the fascists because the alternative would require self-criticism.
