True.
Ok, those he has but nowhere near as much as the left wants and in the case of the former, there's almost always privatization of public infrastructure and/or gifts for the fossil fuel industries bundled with it, making it 2 steps forward, 1 step back at best and usually worse.
Yeah, it's called "pretending Biden can do nothing wrong and is the best possible candidate".
I want Trump to lose. With Biden as the only alternative, there's a huge risk of that not happening.
Yes, you and your fellow Biden apparatchiks sometimes are.
My brother in Christ, "the left" (at least as far as Lemmy presents it) unironically defends Russia making homosexuality illegal because it "opposes western degeneracy."
First of all, I'm not your "brother in Christ". I stopped believing in fairy tales as a child.
I also don't feel any kinship to gaslighting idiots who can't tell the difference between tankies and, to use myself as an example, anti-authoritarian pacifists who just want regular people to be given a chance to thrive and not be ground under the heels of the mighty.
Russia is a fascist theocracy and anyone who calls themselves a leftist while supporting fascism, theocracy, or both, is either an idiot, a liar or both.
Hexbear literally has the largest trans community on lemmy. Russia’s homophobia is also heavily criticised on hexbear. Promoting homophobia or transphobia will always be banned there.
Yea, that's just not true. I have never seen the modern left, Lemmy or otherwise, defend Russian Homophobia, whether it be in the USSR or the modern Russian Federation.
