I criticized Israel for invading Syria in the 24 hours

wow such cutting criticism

you have harsher words for me than the people doing a genocide lmaooo

It’s the zionism, transphobia and bigotry that is the bigger concern.

From the looks of things you got a temp ban, probably a few days at most, for saying “that dude’s a dengist, he’s going to repeat any nonsense china says”, which is pretty rude to assert and if you hadn’t been making it about a specific user it would not have been removed.

China may have billionaires, but they also seem keep them way more in line, and execute way more of them, which I think is overall a positive sign.

I have plenty of criticisms of them, but just being like ‘china has billionaires’ is up there with the other cliches I listed earlier.

It’s such a cliche that there’s even an article linked years ago pointing this out

you seem charming

Another russian on lemmy.ml shitting on the current state of Russia and saying that they doubt china can improve it

What a shameful display from Russia and China.

I think the most telling indictment of the Chinese government is its failure to extend aid to its ideological allies abroad, whether that’s Cuba or Kashmir.

There’s no carve-out for Russia specifically, if you’re making actual criticisms instead of dropping “vuvzela communism no iphone tiennamen square” etc

here’s another one for China: That’s what Socialism with Chinese characteristics actually mean - building Socialism through Neoliberal principles. … The rule that a country should run a trade surplus to balance its budget is unequivocally neoliberal, and an imperialist tool to strangle the Global South.

^ The post is critical of China in case it’s unclear.

and if Daesh is cool too.

literally never seen this there, though if anything it’s all been the western camp people acting like it’s suddenly OK to have the ISIS guy running syria

Not sure what you’re trying to say about Modi, here’s a post from last week pointing out how they’re blackmailing people for support featuring

You believe that all the anti-West countries are secretly the good guys, and are working together

This is demonstrably untrue, the OP pointed this out in point 5 above: the admin’s post was saying that supporting Russia AND Israel amounted to having a social darwinist view of the world

Hexbear also routinely shits on russia for being a capitalist reactionary hellscape.

I’m subbed to most if not all of their comms and I will routinely come across things like this. it’s pretty clearly shitting on the CPRF for going along with the war.

The emoji is imparting ‘lenin would have shot everyone in this room’, I have to imagine that includes Putin. One of their news mods is said ‘If you’re a communist party and Putin is praising you, you’re not a communist party.’

[this is what mwog power users actually believe]

The reality:

the dude you’re responding to got banned on .ml for complaining about Palestinians being violent, they have an extreme chip on their shoulder about anyone on their left

also the comm they’re posting this in has some pretty egregious comments being made and not being moderated because it’s a snark comm for ‘social Democrat’ power users to punch left

specifically calling users of other instances ‘degenerate roaches’, mwog is loaded with posters eager to be free of ‘degenerates’, calling myself and others degenerate roaches.

directly quoting db0: Guy uses “degenerates” straight and is complaining about commies, progressives and furries. 90% they’re a cryptofash.

so far there’s been zero action taken, beyond banning one dude for a slap on the wrist period of 7 days, and not removing any of the posts in question.

can’t wait for the next social democrat rugpull

also the above response to me is whataboutism; it’s entirely possible for lemmy.ml to have issues AND for cm0002 to be a cryptofash anticommunist at the same time.

a common theme I’m noticing is that the power user clique doesn’t seem to like pushback

I’m on lemmy.ml because it’s the developer server so I figured it would get updates the fastest, it also federates with all the communist/anarchist servers.

I’ll take your word for it, but I don’t see what that has to do with cm0002 being a cryptofash anticommunist.

the comm he is extremely active in and constantly promotes is loaded with posters eager to be free of ‘degenerates’, calling myself and others degenerate roaches.

so far there’s been zero action taken, beyond banning one dude for a slap on the wrist period of 7 days, and not removing any of the posts in question.

on what account? I don’t see it in the modlog

Was this the cloudflare thing? I didn’t even notice which lemmy servers were using that

cm0002 is a cryptofash who likes to hang out with other like minded individuals and complain about communists like it’s his full time job

using lemmy.ml means I almost never have to interact with him, I don’t even have to bother to block him

ewwwwww he responded to me

absolutely not, the only thing I follow on youtube is artists making teto songs

As I have stated in other comments: “To be very clear, we never should have been there fighting in cities in an unjust war or inversion…”I will repeat it over and over again.

why qualify it? if there’s a justification does that suddenly make full-scale invasions okay?

I’m actually curious, would Afghanistan an example of another unjust war?

being vegan is a big one for me, no bigger turn-off than watching someone eating a carcass
