Been seeing a lot of people coming in here handwringing about ‘red fash’ and ‘muh authoritarianism.’
Figuring that this will be a common occurrence for a while, so wanted to make a collective thread here. The purpose of this is to just have one spot as so we don’t fill up the comm with a ton of posts about it.
Post away, comrades!
Authoritarianism is when the left has a government
Authoritarianism is when the left calls out genocidal language and defends itself against genocidal actions by fascists actively perpetrating genocide
Then they turn around and call us the genocide supporters.
Authoritarianism is when you resist being crushed into paste by the capitalist powers of the world.
Well only if you achieve some modicum of success greater than Rojava or EZLN.
Authoritarianism is not doing what America tells you to.
I wonder how many of these dipshits are just on lemmy due to reddit’s blackout and will migrate back over once their reactionary sub of choice comes back online? It’s pretty fast how quickly they astrotrufed lemmy and turned it into another lib/chud hangout.
Well, guess we’ll find out today
I think 2/3 will drift back to Reddit
I’d say more like 90% will go back and maybe half of those will continue to use both at least temporarily. Never underestimate the lack of commitment to an online boycott.
