Why do they consider racism, orientalism and lies disputed long ago “valid criticism”. Not even mentioning the lack of humility or a will to learn, just constant snarkiness, smugness and an unrelenting feeling of superiority. Just please, engage with us on equal terms and don’t be dismissive.

Edit: Don’t go into the comments if you value your day…

    Literally saw someone in that Beehaw thread talking about “we’re a safe space for minorities” and shit complaining that they’d posted up a picture of Winnie the Pooh somewhere and got banned for it. They’re literally just western-chauvinist redditors looking for somewhere to piss all over and call theirs.

    People like those in the comments are why I worry about my students from the PRC who want to study in the imperial core.

      I had a few classmates from the PRC when I was in college. At the time I criticized them and thought they were weird for only keeping to themselves and not wanting to socialize with people outside their group. Now I think I know why they were like that, and i don’t blame them.

    It was always going to end with those losers setting up shop. But hey it’s great to see that MLs are making great strides in geopolitics for humanity, and all the bootlickers from reddit can do is troll on lemmy.

    They genuinely think flooding lemmy is going to help stop the multipolar world. Think about that for a second - how stupid you have to be and how desperate you have to be to resort to that. So framed in this way, we know that they will go the way of history and that progress marches on, ignoring their tears.

      Your comment is a big cope, MLs will never be relevant; parts of the left (even those more radical than you) calls you ‘red fascist’. The tears thing is kind of funny since the whole point of this post is to cry about ‘liberals’ entering your little comfy safe space.

        there are more communists in the state of Kerala, India, than there are anarchists in the world. Your whiteness shows.

        even those more radical than you

        Who is more radical than MLs? You, who spend your time trolling online? 😂

          You make the mistake of thinking that ‘communists’ all are MLs, an easy mistake to make but if you really try to educate yourself on communism and its history you’ll find out it’s not true. It’s funny how you think being a tankie makes you the the most radical of the left, when you will happily support states with mixed economies, oligarchies and theocracies. Only Stalin was happy making deals with nazis, the people before him, not so much.

            Hey, do you have any resources that might discuss the ‘flavours’ of communism? I’m looking for good reading material and this sounds like a specific tangent I’d like to be more knowledgeable on.
