I knew a guy that showed up to a George Floyd protest with a sign that just said “vote blue”. Like, somehow a dem in office would have stopped that murderous cop.

The liberal mind…

Punk community on a right wing instance? Nahhh I’m happy to steer clear of that.

They had me until the last three words.

Glad to have you back! Wish I would have done more to keep the place active while you were away

Look dude I’ve worked with many MLs and MLMs. I’ve read some of both Lenin and Mao’s works. I think the recent rhetoric of calling communists fascist is wholely harmful to the left and I don’t participate in it. I never called the DPRK imperialist for obvious reasons. I didn’t even call the PRC imperialist because I do recognize that western media is not a reliable source on the matter. I recognize my own ignorance in these matters and don’t take part in uncritically decrying post-revolution communist states.

We disagree on the way a just society should be structured, or the methods of achieving that end. I consider authoritarianism and unjust hierarchies as a problem of both capitalism and state communism, but as long as my viewpoints can be heard and addressed, I personally don’t have issue with MLs and MLMs. The atrocities of capitalism far outweigh the failures of established communist states.

Dude my very first sentence was “Fuck all imperialist and hierarchical power structures.” How can you think that I support China or Russia?

Fuck all imperialist and hierarchical power structures. Fuck colonialism and fuck the police. Fuck fascists and the libs that enable them.
