Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Oh yeah I know about the Mulford Act, I was just acting incredulous to point out the hypocrisy (which the fascists also don't give a shit about)
Yeah, don’t think I need to tell anyone this but fascists indulge in hypocrisy as a flex. Look at how wrong, how hypocritical they can be and still get the support of everyone.
If they can play the discourse game with cheats enabled, that’s exactly why you’re better off just mocking fascists. Pick the weakest link among them (church boomers, incels) and relentlessly attack them and imply everyone to the right of stalin must be as pathetic as an incel.
I do like the idea of implying Stalin is a bellwether for reasonable politics and anyone to the right of him is too far right. I do think a world where he's considered the right wing extreme of the Overton Window sounds pretty good.
Washed up old Cold Warrior: "Stalin was a fascist dictator!" Okay, so you're saying we need an Overton Window shifted so far left that Stalin appears to be on the furthest corner of authoritarian right? Sounds all right to me!
