classic lemmy.world commenter, witnessing fascism ascendant across the west, is still more scared of communism
I'm witnessing fascism ascendant across America, I dunno about "the west", nor would I say I'm still more scared of communism. I'm not scared of communism at all.
Can we talk about when the mass surveillance is done in the name of protecting socialism, and rooting out capitalism, without you resorting to "what about the west"?
Mate, you were the one who came in here bleating "what about socialist countries!"
Anticommie brain worms are real lmfao
Would you care to give a bit more info about mass surveillance in the name of socialism? It's first time I hear about it.
Assuming you are arguing in good faith and not trolling, here's a couple of articles about mass surveillance in Russia and China, two states that both claim to be socialist, and who claim to use this mass surveillance to protect and further socialist interests and oppose capitalism:

Russia claims to be socialist?? You might have to catch up on the last 30 years, buddy
And using Wikipedia as the source 😭
?????
Russia does not claim to be socialist, nor is it. The PRC's "mass surveillance" is lower than in western countries, and is largely directed against capitalists.
I do not understand how someone becomes so arrogant about subjects they demonstrably no shit all about.
Dunning-Kruger.
