Remember when after signing Molotov Ribbentrop, Stalin was best buddies with Hitler, they split Poland, and nothing happened afterward? No particular thing, no largest land war in human history, no 27 million dead Soviets who were killed by the fascists that the UK and other Western European allies had… also signed treaties with?
You wrote that explicitly to shame people from using a rule meant to cool down comment sections, and you wrote that to promote the “left unity” delusion by jumping on the attempted bullying bandwagon, so their assumptions are rational at least.
Are you the leader of anarchism that gets to decide who is and isn’t an anarchist? I’ve been trying to find whoever is in charge of the anarchists, it’s an honor to meet you!

that’s quite an accusation, I think it’s reasonable to infer insincerity from my words, but shame? I think that’s coming from somewhere else. I was mostly being glib responding to someone calling your post bait.

that’s an awful lot to read into one word. I’m pretty sure I was just making a joke, sorry that it was at your expense but I don’t think that’s bullying.
Follow up question: if that was bullying then what does that say about the people doing red scare smear campaigns based on what server people are on?
Oh, so ridiculing the use of the disengage rule does not have the effect of shaming people from using it?
that’s an awful lot to read into one word.
Context matters. You came to an attempted bullying thread and thought “Oh, I’d better pile on the side defending ML regimes”. As I said, It’s a rational assumption.
I came into a bait thread and made a joke about someone posting a bait thread and then telling pretty much everyone responding to the bait to disengage.
It’s not that I have an issue with the rule, or intended to discourage people from using it, but because posting something incendiary and then dodging earnest responses to the bait with “disengage” is funny.
Love the scare quotes, do you do any actual organizing as an anarchist or do you stick to posting?
I have plenty of criticisms of the USSR, I just don’t care to participate in red scare circlejerks and that clearly rubs some people the wrong way.
on the .ml instance who posts like a hex
I’ve been here for years, it was literally my first instance and it was the most annoying Lemmy users constantly whining about hexbear that got me to start digging though their modlog and checking it out in the first place lmao.
Can you actually point to anything she’s done that disqualifies her from being an anarchist? Like, I can show receipts of you going to the right of the US State Department to defend American Imperialist narratives about Taiwan (nice leftism you got there, Chiang Kai-Shek!). Has she done anything specific that is objectionable?
What rules are there on Hexbear that are so anathema to your noble anti-authoritarian ideology? Do you think we have rules against criticizing socialist countries or something like that? We have arguments daily[1] about China not helping their allies enough or not intervening internationally enough. We criticize the actions of socialist states all the time. So what “rules the party leader made”[2] is she supposed to be against on principle? What is it about Hexbear that demands this belligerent attitude of yours?
disengage
Traditionally your kind only does that when all the other leftists are dead and it’s time to sign treaties with fascists.

my kind? what is that supposed to be referring to?
Red fascists.
A term to distinguish from the people who can wag anti-communism in front of you to gain your uncritical support
quite a conclusion to jump from ‘disengage’ to that, plus I’m an anarchist
It’s so fucking tiring with these people.
That does tend to happen when you step out of your world of alternative facts.
What facts have been presented in this thread that counter ML “alternative facts”? Where are the arguments where the tankies are getting epicly owned?

WTF are you on about, mate? I didn’t even challenge their anarchist creds. Reading comprehension these days, I swear…
You’re validating a user who’s calling her a red fascist.

Soviet simping “anarchist” on the .ml instance who posts like a hexbear, huh. Bold claim, let’s see who’s dumb enough to believe it.

As we all know, anarchists love being on .ml and Hexbear. Why wouldn’t they if they just obeyed the rules the party leader made?
What rules are there on Hexbear that are so anathema to your noble anti-authoritarian ideology? Do you think we have rules against criticizing socialist countries or something like that?
