[META] Never change, lemmy.ml

One for communists is hardly any different [to one for nazis] as far as I'm concerned.

What do you expect to happen when you call a group of people "hardly any different [to nazis]"?

Communism does not advocate genocide any more than capitalism does. A capitalist society may commit genocide, a communist society may commit genocide. Neither are required to by their economic systems.

National socialism directly advocates for genocide.

It's a ridiculous statement to compare communists to nazis and it's not surprising that insulting communists like that will get you banned.

(Adding islamism to the comparison just makes the statement even more bizarre.)

So many people here trying to argue dictionary definitions and hide behind technicalities to make their little slice of authoritarianism better than that other slice of authoritarianism.

Good lord, look at the replies to this post. Even being called out on the behavior, they still cant resist slapfighting over silly technicalities and dictionary definitions.

I left lemm.ee after a mod told me not to use profanity.

Lemmy overall is just different shades of red. Picking your instance just allows you to select pink vs. crimson.

You compared communists to ethno-staters. There's extremist and there's radical.

Yeah no shit if you go to the communist instance and say communists are just as bad as nazis, you're gonna get banned. You even admit to doing this specifically to get banned in your own comment.

Like even though I'm a socialist, I think the guys at lemmy.ml are a bunch of nutjob tankies, but banning people that come to their instance just to be a troll, insult people and purposefully try to get banned isn't actually a bad thing.

Perhaps reddit would be more your jam?

It's only 30 days, and you clearly know nothing about the nuances of communism to be fair.

Honestly the political extremism makes me want to leave. I've already left a few communities and its sad to see the hate on even basic communities.

I just need to learn to ignore it

this is some doctor house putting postits under people's chairs predicting their responses in advance shit

30 days, how kind. Looks like you have something to do 12/23
