Provide context and examples of these "lemmy communists" defending imperialism, supporting capitalistic exploitation of foreign labor and opposing anyone arming themselves in opposition to said imperialism (should go without saying but without naming names of course). Which countries doing these things did you have in mind that "lemmy communists" are supporting?
Youre going to get the libs riled up into their Russo/Sino-phobic and anti-DPRK rants, give me a few to get my popcorn at least ๐

uh, does the original "meme" provide that context? ๐ the point is to point out the diviseness - not to prove that communists are just as bad
tldr. leftist infighting bad.
No, this isn't infighting. The people I'm making fun of aren't leftists. The point of the meme is to make fun of the fact a lot of the people on this service who call themselves Anarchists are not, they are liberals. This is why an Anarchist instance has a "Europe" community for example. I've been called a "Tankie" by "Anarchists" because I don't believe in contracts, voting or nationalist leaders like Zelenskyy. These people don't know what anarchists are and certainly haven't read about anarchism.
No it doesn't provide context for what you specifically pointed out. Which countries are we talking about that cover all these aspects that "lemmy communists" are defending?
