Weirdly intense and antagonistic internet communists.

Like, picture that guy you avoided conversations with when you were 19.

A lemmy instance full of trolls and people celebrating chinese and russian fascism in the name of socialism

Equating communists you disagree with with fascism is holocaust trivialization, according to mainstream Jewish scholars of the holocaust.

Jewish people arent the only people who ever were victim to fascism.... To say china commits a holocaust is holocause trivialization. To say it is a fascist country is not.

To say it is a fascist country is making fascism look better then it is. Fascism doesn't have 95 percent of the population approving of the government. Fascism doesn't exempt minorities from the one child policy. Fascism doesn't end extreme poverty in a country of 1.4 billion people. Fascism doesn't lead to trans youth Healthcare clinics sprouting up in major cities.

Not every right wing extremist caused the holocaust, and besides, if you compare all right wing extremists with the nazis at their peak power, you could also consider yourself a stalinist for downplaying his actions by simplifying history as some people I disagree with

Left-wing social site (might be fedi, never bothered checking) for leftists who are way too edgy for mainstream leftist communities.

[–] GyozaPower@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Rather than edgy, they are straight up tankies (aka, russia and URSS apologists)

[–] SirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Wait, let me get this right

  • too far right: trump fangirls, fascists and Elon stans
  • too far left: Russia-stans and pro-communism-with-corruption groups?

Both are authoritarian, two sides of the same shitty coin.

I've read all the comments here and still don't have a clue what a hexbear is

[–] seejur@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) (1 children)

So you know the Lemmy instance Lemmy.world? Well, there is another instance called hexbear... Which is full of hardcore, Stalinist communist. And every user of every other instance hates them

Why do people always put labels on them as if that's the reason they are idiots. It's not. There just a bunch of obnoxious trolls that have made it their mission to annoy other instances.

Fearful that a high-level national hero might be killed, Soviet officials banned Gagarin from participating in further spaceflights. After completing training at the Zhukovsky Air Force Engineering Academy in February 1968, he was again allowed to fly regular aircraft. However, Gagarin died five weeks later, when the MiG-15 that he was piloting with flight instructor Vladimir Seryogin crashed near the town of Kirzhach

Commies smh
