Yeah this happened once during the 2020 July protests in Serbia. As we walked, we passed a WW2 memorial and the guy leading the group took a moment to stop, comment on it and chant "death to fascism" a few times. Then out of the blue two guys started yelling "death to communism".

To be fair, "death to fascism, freedom to the people" is a communist slogan known by everyone from ex-Yugoslavia, but getting triggered by someone disavowing fascism right next to a statue that shows how fascists murdered civilians in raids in your own city is... worrying.

For some reason there seems to be this idea that everything must either be fascist or communist or somewhere between. Like they don't believe in the existence of other political philosophies.

They're obsessed with the political spectrum being one-dimensional, it isn't.

Ah yes, the two genders

The next chant should be "death to fascism, death to capitalism"

Fascism is a feature of capitalism, not a bug. We need to go back to the correct timeline. Socialism was the improvable system. Capitalism is social darwinism (read: a lie)

Weird how every anticommunism turns out to be fascism putting on a performance for libs.

Maybe we should stop listening, and start doing.

Not in Eastern Europe. People hate the communists here. They have ruined their countries, basically occupied them.

[-] Corn@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 month ago

Which eastern European country, and how many monuments to nazi collaborators have they put up since the fall of communism?

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

None. But plenty of communist monuments that were forced on us that we tore down the second Russia effed off back to home.

Communism is a disease and the Soviet Union was an imperialist country continuing on with Russia.

Which eastern European country didnt build monuments to nazi collaborators as part of its anticommunist national project?

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago

Mine didn't. Stop whatabouting, I don't remotely care about opinions of a tankie.

Not by accident, Serbia is like the MAGA lovin' south of Europe, complete with the ignorant meat-heads gargling Putin's balls.
