    I knew that would be twisted but left it. I’ll be more precise: authoritarianism is authoritarianism, but I don’t know enough about their other perspectives to say they’re no good. Perhaps an exchange of ideas may bring two or more perspectives closer. Maybe not.

      Well, then. Maybe you should spend some time on Tankie spaces and learn what they’re about before just assuming that anybody who doesn’t like them is just being a close-minded asshole.

          Why are you still here? Didn’t you announce that you were blocking this sub like 4 posts ago? Get out!

            Because i see how this works. You’re not better than them, you’re doing the same thing they complain about, and so far, that’s what authoritarians do. I forget a lot about tankie things that I don’t understand, because they’re usually banned, shouted down, etc. You keep showing your insecurity in my inbox, have the last word and feel smug. You’re so sure about your ideas, you can’t tolerate me entertaining otherwise. Maybe I’d come to the same conclusion for myself if I can’t let that happen because it’s not possible to hear from them. I used to defend freedom of speech for Nazis too, but I learned. I also learned about psyops of everyone from cliques to governments, including inflation and band wagon.

              I’m sorry; did you just compare some asshole shitposting online with an authoritarian? Are you actually stupid? Do you just not know what authoritarianism is?

              Maybe I’d come to the same conclusion for myself if I can’t let that happen because it’s not possible to hear from them

              Yeah. I think you might legitimately be stupid. You know you can go check out any Tankie spaces on Hexbear or Lemmy.ml any time you want, right? Like, a couple instances defederating from them doesn’t in any way silence them. They’re still free to post their garbage opinions on their own instances.

              I used to defend freedom of speech for Nazis too

              Ok, yup. You’re legitimately stupid.

              Why are you still here, again?

                Ow oooh owwww I’m going to wither and die because someone on the internet felt threatened by a different perspective and rather than have legit rebuttal attacked like they accuse tankies of doing.

                  I mean, wither and die if you’d like. It’s no skin off my nose. But I don’t in any way feel threatened by your “different perspective”. I just think your perspective is dumb as hell. And I’m postulating that you’ve probably got to be a complete moron to hold that perspective.

                  Also, what is a legit rebuttal to someone who’s so dumb that they think that there’s no place to interface with Tankies? You’re pretty ridiculous.

                    Right, right. You don’t “feel threatened,” so you immediately try to kneecap someone to prove how tall you really are. Sure.
