Yeah the symmetry seems satisfying, but doesn't really stand up to scrutiny if you actually think it through.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

yeah, in current year, three of them would be screaming "holy shit, three liberals!"

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 50 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (4 children)

I've never seen a socialist call an anarchist a liberal, and I've been both at various points. Also you forgot the liberal calling all 4 radicals and terrorists.

You're not hanging out in campist spaces enough. I have been snarled at and banned from hexbear comms for "liberalism"

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Over the last ~10 years i have spent a shitload of my not-insignificant amount of free time in various far-left spaces on the internet, but I suppose I haven't seen every last crazy mofo out there. Also, calling an opinion 'liberalism' is different than calling an anarchist a liberal.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

I assure you when you're snarled at, it's "liberal"

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

A lot of people got trolled by hexbear users when they migrated here from Reddit by posting pictures of pigshit and calling anyone mad about it a shitlib.

Some are still angry, two years on.

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah, what a lovely bunch of human beings. Sorry on behalf of we leftists who aren't giant flaming assholes.

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Doesn't bother me at least. Online assholes are the default state, which means I just get to be happy when I interact with civil people.

You must not have spent much time on .ml or hexbear.

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have not, but I spent a shitload of time over the past ~10 years in numerous leftist spaces on Reddit and elsewhere. I suppose there's a chance the socialists on those instances are more cranky and less accurate than everywhere else on the internet, but I'm skeptical.

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Go make a comment skeptical of North Korean, Chinese, or Russian propaganda on either of those instances and you’ll be swarmed by the smoothest of brains.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago

They are here particularly due to their "crankiness"

[–] PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

never been to lemmy.ml or hexbear?

[–] libra00@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have not, is that where all the leftists are on lemmy?

[–] PotatoesFall@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

Tankies. The .ml is short for Marxism-Leninism. Leftists for sure, but they get very nasty if you criticize China or voice anarchist thought, and will definitely call you a liberal for it.

I'm generalizing of course, there's many different people there. But campism is definitely huge.

lemmy.ml is the most popular one, there is also hexbear and lemmygrad.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Nah .ml is part of the Tankie Triad, run by hardcore tankies who claim that they are the only "true leftists"

If you want to see documentation of their words, actions and censoring checkout !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

As an anarchist myself, I would not call libertarians or state communists fascists. All 3 are bad, but in different ways and for different reasons.

And if we're standing against fascists, I'll stand side-by-side with a communist or a libertarian. But I'll never stand side-by-side with a fascists against anyone for any reason.

surely Capitalism will save us!

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

end stage capitalists be like "there's no poverty if we kill the poor"

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

"AGI to run all systems and implemented in all mobile robotics for manual labor, kill all the poors, problem solved! Just be sure the AI has emotions, I'm going to need something else to hurt when all the poors are dead."

[–] toy_boat_toy_boat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

trabillionaire don't care

[–] EldenLord@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Google ~~en passant~~ „soziale Marktwirtschaft“

[–] toy_boat_toy_boat@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

you mustn't say such perverted things on this public forum!

[–] EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Holy shit! Two symbols drawn wrong (Anarchy & Nazi Swazi)!

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

it's the nazis from the mirrorverse.

[–] TootSweet@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Holy shit, three people who are full of shit.

You know which three. Don't make me spell it out which one is spot on.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

Dessalines just gave you months long bans from 4 unrelated .ml communities.

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Is Gadsden representing Libertarians or Conservatives here? But still why would they be separate from Nazis who would be screaming socialist as well? The Nazis and the bedrock of their support was in their anti-communism.
