Tiktok was THE platform for pro-gaza content and solidarity. Leaks from Congress proves this. It's a shell of what it once was now that the US oligarchs are in control of it and have turned it into their right wing spyware platform.
Blocked for unironically using the word 'tankie'.
I mean, you guys have legitimately genocidal folks like yogthos that your admins pat on the head as they bludgeon their way through every conversation with 4chan speak. I do not respect you enough to feel offended by your absence. If you don’t like the word, sort out your tankie users.
Armenian and Bosnian.
I genuinely have no clue about the goings on of any African nation, besides Kenya. And mostly just the soccer bits through a coworker. I wish I were informed enough to engage with you on what seems to be an accusation, but if something’s happened in South Africa and it doesn’t involve musk’s weird intrafamilial spouse trading family, I probably don’t know about it.
Your link’s dead
I don’t see yogthos in this, so I don’t- wait, you misunderstood. I said yogthos was a fan of genocide, not either of you admins. No, both you and your fellow dev just seem sleep starved and politically hugboxxy, not genocidey. Which you’re allowed to be, you made the site and it seems to take a lot of your time.
Though I wish you’d define the political hugbox a bit more explicitly in the sidebar. Banning for inobvious rules will always produce animosity from new users. You’re not doing yourselves any favors by hiding it behind euphemisms.
The only person I know who ever denied the Armenian genocide was Cenk Uygur, which he later walked back.
An Bosnian genocide is much more controversial. That the Srebrenica massacre constituted genocide had been refuted by a number of scholars, including Noam Chomsky, Edward Herman, and Michael Parenti.
I get that you want to stand by your most loyal users and political theory, but jfc
I get that you want to stand by the anticommunist propaganda, but jfc.
If you begin to question what is or is not a genocide as a laymen, you’re literally never going to find broad social purchase. I have nothing against communists or communism, I have something against you, personally. Hit me up if you ever get a therapist and we’ll probably get along.
you do have something against communism, you just don't care to talk about without a veil of irony.
but then again, i actually live in one of your colonies, and i have the lived experience, so i take your deception more seriously.
i guess trump will eventually teach stubborn western fascists like yourself what genocide is truly like.
No, I have something against the shitty little asshole I used to be. Ineffectually preaching anticorporatism to no practical results as a form of self comfort. It’s honestly setting off my anxiety remembering all of this. Anyway, consider that therapy
That’s still you, buddy, and sorry to hear about your capitalist realism brainworms.
oooh. so it's just projection got it. just don't hate on others just because you hate yourself. follow your own advice and get some therapy.
but hey, if you really wanna do something about it, you can always let go of your empty "anticorporatism" and actually learn from somewhere other than hollywood movies. there is hope.
Badgering people on the communist Linux loo reading app about what is or isn’t a genocide is not a productive use of your time. That is my post-therapy hot take.
...this you?
also, aren't we on a thread about politically motivated censoring of an app?
Congratulations, you understood my meaning
all i understand atm is your projection.
Thanks for the generous proportions, I guess.
Lmao
Ok tankie
Ok fascist
Well hold on, I'm neither of these things, but isn't tankie a communist thing? And if so, why would somebody calling a duck a duck automatically be a fascist? Unless, is anybody that is not a communist a fascist?? I thought fascists were auth right, specifically?
Tankie is a pejorative for communists that gets unilaterally branded onto people by anti-communists. I'm happy to declare people using it unironically to be fascists, and if you don't agree with that, well, tough luck, you were the one who started throwing around snarl words
I think you're missing my question. I'm asking you if communists actually consider all non communists to be fascists. I'm genuinely unsure.
No. They don't
