Slop.

They defeat the fascist scourge of homeless tent encampments that make moderately well off local residents feel uncomfortable

but what about the authoritarian totalitarian stalinist maoist lenninist marxist cultural-marxist collectivized red bureaucratic planned economy KGB censored thought police speech police communist socialist surveillance slave police state dictatorship regime? Huh? What if they take my balls and distribute it?

All those liberals who put a stop to the Palestinian genocide, and definitely didn't smugly support it

I want an Overton Window so far left that Stalin looks like a liberal...

Both tankies and conservatives are making fun of me for shitting my pants, they must be exactly the same

A large number of Americans genuinely believe politics is a one-dimensional axis which runs from infinity Conservative to infinity Liberal. Therefore, if you are shitting on Liberals you must be right-wing. This is pretty deeply baked in. Political polling institutions which are ostensibly staffed by political scientists often frame the left simply as "very liberal." Television political coverage does more or less the same thing. Orgs like DSA, if mentioned, are portrayed as very liberal. Communism is used only as an epithet, but is functionally interchangeable with Liberalism. Non-affiliated voters are universally described as "independents," which are universally assumed to be somewhere in-between Liberal and Conservative (never outside). This is also why the solution to every political issue is framed in terms of dialog and meeting in the middle. This is the only thing which is even possible under this paradigm. To resist compromise is to be divisive. Division is bad, against the rules, and means you want to destroy The System ("Democracy," which is good).

Then you have the smart-asses who learned about the Political Compass website sometime after 9-11 and think they're Machiavelli because they understand there are actually two axes (with Margaret Thatcher and Joseph Stalin in the same corner).

Our political education is really fucking bad.

I mean, they came in at the last 15 minutes and took all the credit. That's something I guess?

Genocide apologia and deleting comments addressing it is doing something.

Yeah this is the "Zionist or Nazi"^[] thing but with anti-communism instead

I've been tempted to, as soon as it's about "foreign policy" they converge

Online liberals can't even provide a functional definition of their own ideology, on top of being political and historical illiterates, their entire worldview is idiosyncratic and random

One minute they're cheering on genocide, the next they're waxing poetic about the virtues of civility, they have no learned ability to discern political distinction

They worship power and will overlay their random jumble of opinions with whatever signals the establishment media is pumping out at the moment

I really don't like to reduce it all as people with reading/critical thinking problems, however theres a lot who can't escape from the team red vs team blue dynamic and this really shows it

I'm getting kinda hungry.

Clearly this is a tankie because communism is when no food.

I love [spoiler].

Alright, now imagine if they said Hitler. Clearly this must be a fascist (not the worst kind, a communist, but the second worst kind)

Liberals understanding of WWII is: Hitler was bad, good guy America swooped in and saved the day, the end.

Anything is possible when you lie

liberals defeating fascism by enabling it until it self-destructs 😎
