    Got called a Fascist Brownshirt by a Tankie

    I was arguing with this Tankie on tiktok (waste of time I know) & we were talking about the 2024 election. I said that it doesn’t make someone a “bad-leftist” if they don’t vote 3rd party in 2024 & that it is perfectly reasonable for a leftist to vote democratic in 2024. He then preceded to say that I was “encouraging genocide” (despite my statement earlier that I DO support Palestine) & that the republican and democratic party are the exact same thing. He then called me a “Fascist blackshirt Marxist” and blocked me.

    And thus I join this sub

    You can tell this happened because the tankie called them a Marxist for voting as a democrat.

    Any thoughts on Pete Buttigieg?

    Just merge with the neoliberal sub already. This place is a joke.

    (mod) Trust me, we’ve been trying for months to fix the liberal problem. We’ve managed to reduce the amount of liberal rhetoric being spread on here, but we haven’t managed to actually drive most of the liberals out (as shown by our monthly ideology poll).

    What the fuck are they replacing liberals with?

      Theoretically, anarchists and other “libertarian socialist” types. In practice, mostly liberals who like listening to pop-punk and looking at pictures of graffiti online.

      I vote that hexbear do a weekly ideology poll. This is important data that definitely can’t be falsified by simply choosing an option in the poll that doesn’t align with your actual ideology simply to “fit in”.
