I've been trying to find a good Marxist instance, but Lemmygrad and Hexbear are widely hated. Why is that? Are there any good leftist instances?

Another repeating problem is the vast generalizations. Treating "the West" as if they're all Bush Jr. or Reagan.

If "the west" isn't voting for Bush or Reagan then they're hailing people like Obama, who destroyed Libya and brought back open air slave markets - or Clinton who destroyed Belgrade and undermined social protections for workers. To think you are somehow better because you support(ed?) Genocide Joe is just delusion.

What’s your view on Trump?

[–] TarkovSurvivor@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Critical support to Donald Trump in his mission to undermine the amerikkkan state, bless him for not hiring people to the state department and congratulations for his negotiation of capitulation to the Taliban

This is not quite the insult you think it is.
