Seriously, the OP over there is genuinely deranged.
Like what the fuck is even going on here:
I hesitate to call them tankies because they don’t follow the same ideals. These people deride ‘the libs’ but engage in liberalism, calling themselves lgbtq friendly, then they call themselves communist but engage in materialism, they call themselves socialist but agree with authoritarianism.
I don’t know what to call them besides fascist, but fascist is so non-specific when dealing with these groups that it doesn’t help for identification. We actually need a new name for this group of fascists.
::: spoiler Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies.
They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
I can't believe Lemmygrad is so weird, who answers their door while holding a book? Like, just put it down somewhere. I guess it's a solid excuse to tell the .world Nazi to get off your porch.
We were in the middle of a group reading for State & Revolution. We thought we'd invite the stranger at our door to come and join, but it seems we were better off without them.
o7 to the .ee poster (maybe not, now that I look closer their username is a bit sus). If grad was really calling for "race-based nuclear holocaust", shouldn't they be able to present evidence? That whole thread is filled with some absolutely wild takes.
