I was passing out when I made the comment. What I really want to know is why why this entire thread is being downvoted to hell. Is it several tankies or just 1 with multiple accounts?

I'm one of the "tankies" downvoting the thread, but I just have the one account. You said something obviously wrong and the other person somehow managed to disagree with you while saying essentially the exact same wrong thing. It seemed like a pointless argument about nonsense.

Correct. But they like to pretend they are. The amount of mental gymnastics and Newspeak they need to get there is truly profound.

“We are leftist because OUR totalitarianism is benevolent!”

Like… that is not the way it works. That is now how any of this works. 🤣

[–] Objection@lemmy.ml -4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yes, that is the obviously wrong thing you both said.

[–] Veraxus@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oh no, the authoritarian rightists fee-fees got hurt because us nasty lefties won’t let them get away with Ur-fascist Newspeak!

So sorry… well, not really.

I have no idea what you're even talking about at this point.
