They've actually never followed me out of their echo chambers I think because the light is bright and it hurts their eyes.
You see, I didn't know they were communists, so didn't see why they would be offended by my comment, so defended it, like 50 replies if not more to hundreds of comments from multiple users jumping on my shit, until one of the cool ones explained to me they were communists mostly living outside the US, so I started ignoring them. But one of their enforcer types demanded I apologize and I told him to eat a dick or something, so that didn't help.
They're not communists, they're Stalinists. Communism is a stateless, moneyless, classless society. They want the people's authoritarian regime to step on their necks with the people's boot.
Communism has been successfully practiced for 60,000 years, but every tankie state either collapses or goes capitalist.
Making distinctions between Stalinists and Trotskyists or Second Internationalists or whatever in 2026 is just idiotic sectarianism. Trump is the president! We need to unite rather than focus on such petty squabbles.
The tankies aren't on our side. We agree on a lot of problems. Let's work on them we say, they say no, fuck you, only violent revolution will do it, and I hope you die. Is their attitude. They are tools of the fascist regime of Russia I suspect.
I'll ally with people who want Trump gone and will take any action to make it happen. Those Stalinists think relinquishing their vote is a good way to get closer to voter reform and a higher priority than kicking Trump out.
