this whole platform be like:

I don't hate most leftists (or even non-leftists for that matter). I hate the kind that hate other leftists. The lemmy.ml tankies always complain that people who disagree with them are splitting the left, when they're the ones calling everybody who vaguely disagrees with them a liberal. Not purely an ML thing though, there's plenty of this kind of person in all camps.

Look what they did to my boi.

Is this Anime Futurama?

(Seriously, wtf is this shit?)

Edit: Lol okay, they did a weird episode.

Futurama is gonna look so funny if they actually committed to doing Japanese-Style Animation for future episodes 🤣, like it'd be comedy gold.

I made this for a comment (about small-data images, jpegs) days ago:

There are inherently more ways to imagine changes than to point at the status quo.

This meme reminded me of all the different flavours of Christianity.

If there's an actual debate you've got to define terms. People's definitions of 'leftist' can be pretty wild, especially if the debate is between an American and... mostly anyone outside America.

I have seen people waxing poetic about Imperial Japan and the Jakarta Method who consider themselves leftist, while at the same time associate outright NazBols with the left.

So 'what do you actually mean by tankie/liberal?' will usually cut through a lot of debate perv noise.

I fucking hate this dynamic

See Ken Loach’s Land & Freedom on how factionalism and in-fighting within the Republican forces in the Spanish Civil war allowed the fascist Junta to win.

I would like more unity with people who share alignment with me. Except for anyone who has a slightly different opinion than me on certain issues, screw those people.

eh. you are welcome to join me, or do your own thing if you want to. just stop annoying me on the internet, its counterproductive.
