    I keep accounts on a lot of other right wing extremist websites too. It lets me keep track of dangerous groups.

    For instance, I was active on kiwifarms for years. That obviously doesn’t mean I support them.

        I’ve helped take a lot of authoritarians off of the internet and I will keep doing that. You all eventually self-doxx.

              the symbol has been used in many different contexts by a variety of anti-fascist, social democratic and democratic socialist organisations

              I’m asking what you, specifically, mean by “authoritarian”

                  Jesus Christ that is a wall of unhinged screeds against muh red fash tankies with absolutely no analysis, just “here’s something the makes me mad, watch me react to it with terminally online vocabulary”. Theory implies I’ll learn something from critical analysis, not a glimpse into the mind of a madman. What you linked is some weird manifesto about how you’d rather die under the boot of capitalism than ever work with others who have similar ideas of what is important but different ideas on how to reach them. Shows how serious you are about accomplishing those goals as some comfortable global north netizen posting their way to freedom apparently.

                  No wonder you can’t define what you mean by authoritarian, I don’t think you know.

                    Once the transition to their new religion is complete, almost immediately, any ideas that conflict with the writings of Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Deng and Xi (never mind that they all contradict with each other) create desperate cognitive dissonance in their minds. So these pasty emotionally-stunted people angrily lash out at the unindoctrinated for being “radlibs”, “western chauvinists” and “imperialists” rather than risk parting with their new-found identity, community and belonging.

                    Once the majority in the newly minted left-unity community are comfortable joking about rounding up and killing “kulaks”, “anarchist bandits” or more recently “Uighur terrorists” and quoting Chinese state media to counter all the “imperialist western propaganda” from the mouths of the various minority groups being imprisoned and enslaved by the Chinese state (for their own good, they’ll insist), the shaming campaign begins.

                    Anyone in the space who breaks with the red fash party line is lambasted and ridiculed into submission. The remaining libertarians in the space now find themselves hopelessly outnumbered by scornful white settlers with daddy issues telling them they’re imperialist CIA stooges for thinking the Uighurs maybe shouldn’t be put in concentration camps or the Hong Kong and Tibetan people should get self-determination (watch tankies insist Tibetans who don’t want to be ruled by China are fascists and China is, in fact, saving them from themselves).

                    What part of this do you not understand?

          So I interpret this as a threat to dox hexbear users?

          In the spectrum of political action you could take outside of organizations (which I would suggest, go into some collectives) you decide to dox people creating and participating safe spaces for trans people online (since you label their brand of political action as authoritarian or as tolerant of authoritarianism you see in pretty much any ML form).

          This means you are purging leftist elements instead of trying to broaden or create bases of power or free spaces for anti hierarchical ideologies. Sounds pretty authoritarian to me.

            It’s also pretty laughable that id ever be fired from my job for being a socialist tbh. It only works against fascists because they are so reprehensible and incapable of working on a team

                i mean yeah, if you have a conservative nutjob as your boss even just being a hillary supporter will get you fired. most big corporations though, they dont care as long as they make money. in fact most people know that im a socialist at work already :shrug-outta-hecks:

            If you’re not doing anything wrong, then you don’t have anything to worry about.

            It’s very telling how much this site loves talking about “purges”. Authoritarians aren’t leftist. Removing them from the internet is a type of antifascist action and I will never apologize for being antifascist.

              If you’re not doing anything wrong, then you don’t have anything to worry about.

              Here’s an easy one: closeted or passing people being outed and thereby being exposed to violence and harassment. Any communist in South Korea or other countries where it is illegal. Anyone even substantially adjacent to protest actions where a “frisky” PD has jurisdiction.

              You are the absolute epitome of useful idiocy if you aren’t just a fed – which I don’t say often but am forced to consider here with an anarchist who says US lawbreakers have a police raid coming.

              Authoritarians aren’t leftist. Removing them from the internet is a type of antifascist action

              So we all agree purging fascists is good. We just understand who fascists are and accept the idea that using force against them (i.e., purges) is good, while you don’t have a fucking clue who fascists are and use some bullshit reasoning to say that your purges aren’t really purges.
