They’re usurping socialist language as a means of pushing people towards fascism. Should be we giving fascists the “benefit of the doubt?”
minus-squareSoul_Greatsword@lemmygrad.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up11·7 months agoExactly right. They push a cynical and loveless socialism that has disunity baked into it.
