Oh it's a dbzer0 user, the fake communists 😁
Oh it’s a .ml user, the fake communists 😁
That’s the fun part about Lemmy; when you cram a bunch of left ideologies into close quarters, they all turn on each other and start No True Scotsman’ing all over the place. Nobody hates communists more than other communists.
There’s also the whole “dbzer0 is anarchist, not communist. Anarchy describes social policy, while communism describes fiscal policy” side of things. Anarcho-communism tries to reconcile the two, but that’s basically just Chomsky without the libertarian free-market “unions will be enough to protect the people from billionaires” BS; communism in practice (Mao, Lenin, Stalin, Castro, etc) has virtually always socially leaned more towards conservative authoritarianism, instead of liberal anarchy. True Marxism is closer to anarchy than it is to Leninism on the social spectrum, but good luck convincing anyone from .ml of that.
