Contrario [any, comrade/them]

Personally, I think it’s mostly due to people coming in from reddit and being outraged that people further left than themselves exist in this space, you know the .world crowd. Fairly new myself, but I can’t say I’ve seen much here that would be out of the ordinary in any other left wing space.

They won’t.

Even the most cartoonish caricatures of Stalin by Western propagandists doesn’t come close to the level of bloodshed and pure evil emanated by each of the heads on that mountain.

Yeah, kinda weird reddit takes exception to this given how much of a lib place it is. Like even as a lib who believes in “decorum”, shouldn’t you be understanding of the fact that someone who just got their country attacked by a US proxy wouldn’t take too kindly to the heads of states complicit in the assault?

Yep. They like to claim to be “in the middle” and have no allegiance to any political wing, while also just spouting off the most generic right wing stuff imaginable. One time I defended student protests against education fees, prompting one of them to ask me if I was a terrorist for giving one of the tamest defenses imaginable. Years later, that same one compared me to ISIS. First time, I just laughed it off because I couldn’t take the question seriously and the second time I just ignored it.
