Why is Lemmy not on this list?
Because lemmy shills are super obvious, nobody has to "discover" them
They aren't even good at it. Their entire schtick is literally "you are obviously biased because you haven't read enough Lenin", like it's this big gotcha.
Maybe try reading more
As far as I can tell I've read way more Lenin than your average lemmy tankie
Reading the article it seems like the whole operation was super obvious and a bit amateurish. Par for the course.
Yeah, motherfuckers over at lemmygrad are astroturfing HARD. It's like the Russia/China circlejerk over there. The "greatest socialist experiment of all time". Smfh.
I see you haven't met hexbear yet
Ten years later:
China wasn't actually socialist, it was capitalist!
Don't tell them that. They'll call you an evil colonialist Democrat.
And then tell you that Democrats are fascists
*Lib
China #4
USSR maybe, Russia today is a capitalist hegemon. China is a mixed economy, and I find on the communist subs people often don't realize it went through all kinds of neoliberal reforms. There's both pro and anti China propaganda. Shen Yun for instance is pretty absurd anti China propaganda run by the Falun Gong.
Tankies still shill for Russia and China despite neither being communist.
