Palestinians are being vaporized by the thousands, and this is of course just one instance of the many thousands of atrocities facilitated by the US since WW2, but being mad about that is total loser shit. I’m simply above it all and only speak in this detached vague style because actually being concrete in your views is extremely uncool. I totally get ya dawg hell yeah.
You have brigaded my inbox. Now you will receive one in return
A brigade is when you’re one of the oldest and most active instances and continue to use the federated website.
No of course not that would really cut into their bullshitting online time
Look at my shock when you don’t engage with any of the resources offered to you 
Actually read the essay instead of just snapping back lol. They have a fascinating system that is very unlike what you imagine.

Time for some learnin’
Anyone you see self identifying as a tankie is just fucking around because of how meaningless the term is. If you want to insult a Marxist try directly engaging with whatever it is they’re saying that annoys you. You might even learn something along the way.
A tankie is anyone to the left of whoever is using the pejorative. Usually because they expressed a critique of imperialism or aren’t sufficiently racist towards the Chinese.
We’re gonna do hands across america again, but this time we’ll complete the damn chain and fascism will be DONEZO
Personally I’ve found that bashing myself in the head with the book is just as effective as reading it
Cheerze
Probably for the best because if you click through to the .ml version you get worlders saying things like
I dunno, I perceive it more as a letft wing term for left-extremist fascists
Words mean nothing to these people lmao
Damn that’s crazy that the country full of nazis and the fascist military industrial complex masquerading as a country arming them with billions of dollars worth of weapons would be the only two in the world to vote against the glorification of nazism. Totally wild. Oh and they vote against it every time, for years? Wow got to wonder what’s up with that.

I really appreciate you hand sending this extremely funny comment straight to my inbox, thanks. Normally I’d have to scroll through some straight up boring shit to find a nugget like this.
Even just reading the abstract would make it clear why I sent you that link.
Those countries does/did not operate as communist states the way that Marx and other political theorists imaginend them.
The article details the way in which socialist theory has been implemented throughout points in history and compares and contrasts with the modern Chinese methods. It is not “just a label” as you casually threw out earlier. China has used the productive forces of capital to rapidly modernize, however they do not allow capital to be turned into political power which results in a government that is shielded from a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie forming like we have in every capitalist country. Their capital accumulation is actually used to massively better the lives of the people who live there because they have a real say in what goes on.

if you want an analysis of China that isn’t just based on vibes
Love reading liberals play with their words. Like bud you don’t have to log on and start writing things about subjects you clearly aren’t well studied in. You can actually choose to just not do that lol
For some reason people who don’t read theory / materialist history really don’t understand how incredibly silly comments like Nemo’s come across to those who do.
Found the pamphlet. He posted it to stupidpol a month ago
