Nazis are well known for lacking any ability to feel embarrassed by their actions.

Nope, sorry, we're all just here to post "Russian disinformation" to the....100 or so people who visit here each month. That's all part of Putin's master plan, to trick 100 people a month you see. That way it will only take him 1083 or so years and he'll have tricked everyone in the west!

"Just gotta grind to get that prestige gear, then we can start winning this war."

"Just spending some time smurfing in bronze league then we'll shoot up straight past gold."

"If we trail at the half, they'll let their guard down and we'll shoot right past them."

"When we win this war, I'm going to Disneyland!"

Indeed. Russia will most likely be the next big "enemy of socialism" in the world after the western bloc collapses. The difference is that they'll be much, much weaker than the whole western bloc and will struggle to prevent socialist uprisings in other countries (and hopefully, even in their own).

Libs:

Anyone who thinks communists are in an "echo chamber" have never actually spoken to communists. I've gotten into far more actual debates and discussions about the most obscure shit in communist circles than I have anywhere else.

Some CHUD spouting the exact same "million billion dead authoritarian no ifone vuvuzela 1948" nonsense is not actually worth talking to.

How do we choke Iraq though?

Is it bombs? I'm guessing the answer is bombs.

Not really a fan of this sort of stuff. Dehumanising your enemies and treating them as monsters never ends well.

No, the original text is just laughing, I just used the same font.

Look at the view counts on those videos, then look at the length, then look at the number of ads they put in them.

It's a grift, they do a low effort rant video that requires little to no editing and make bank.

Ah! Thank you! That's exactly the problem I've been having. I've been feeling lost when I try to understand them, because I've been feeling obligated to discuss these things on their terms. I can't challenge the ideas that AES are revisionist without feeling dogpiled, and I can't bring up ideas of how the western left is obsessed with purity and matyrdom without being told that they are sick of being accused of having a purity fetish. (Funny how MLs keep saying the same things to them and they just respond with "stop saying that" rather than analyzing why people say it) Hell, when talking to them, it feels like I can't bring up any counter points at all without being told I'm "stifling discussion" or something. Hence my initial question. I'm perpetually on the defensive because they take these things as gospel and state them with the confidence of a smug liberal. It's all a smokescreen, saying something technically or arguably true, that misses the forest for the trees. It's frustrating, because I really do want to understand their arguments and point of view, but it all seems to boil down (sorry) to this sort of thing. Just ignoring overall material conditions in favour of purity tests. A shame I can't really get this across to any Maoists without just getting banned or blocked (hell, I'll probably be banned from at least one discord server just for posting that initial question here.) But if their response to someone trying to understand their form of Marxism is to shut them out, it only shows their lack of understanding.
