You're viewing part of a thread.
If you have trouble understanding my posts i can recommend some books. some of those ideas seemed like meaningless buzzwords to me too before i knew about them.
i'm not calling you a fascist though. i don't think you are. I think you're a misled liberal who believes a bunch of stuff thats basically double genocide theory with a fresh coat of paint that became popular in the black book of communism.
thats the soft holocaust denial i was referring to, trivialization.
back when the black book of communism came out a bunch of people got up in arms because it's pretty much the same line of thinking as that double genocide theory, that the holocaust wasn't unique. I remember the introduction especially caught a bunch of flak for saying that the people who liberated the concentration camps were worse than the people who ran them, but the whole conceit of the book is kinda suspect.
anyway, don't equate communism and naziism, it's fascist junk and you're not a fascist.

You make it very, very hard to not insult you when you're this obtuse and condescending. No, I don't need your already misguided understanding of those words, I know what they mean. I'm simply mocking your nonexistent argument. Buzzwords, just as FYI, are words that are often jargon that are seen as fashionable in particular contexts. In your case you're using a bunch of those words that are trendy among Marxists in place of an actual substantive argument. This is what you said:
"NATO is bad because it functions to defend neoliberal and neocolonial systemic oppression hand in glove with the fascist militants it arms."
This is not an argument. There's no thesis, there's no evidence, there's no points, there's no examples, there's no explanations. Functions how? Defends how? What neoliberal oppression? What neocolonial oppression? What fascist militants? Who exactly is it arming? Do you have evidence that actually ties any of this to the organization? Do you even know what NATO is? Saying NATO bad because NATO bad but with more buzzwords is still a meaningless statement.

There's so seems to be a misunderstanding here. We're not equals in morality. I don't support a failed murderous ideology, you do. You're trying very hard to try shut down the comparisons and the criticisms that I have of Marxism. Idk if you actually you think this will work, but it won't. No, calling out how shitty Marxism is not fascism, pointing out the atrocities that were caused by Marxism is fascism, noting the similarities between these two shitty ideologies is not fascism, bringing up the horrific history of Marxism is not fascism. You're not going to shut down the criticisms that I have of Marxism like this, nor do these attempts invalidate any of my criticisms. Like I said again and again, what you're doing here is meaningless.
I've said this 4 times now, but the reality is that you won't accept this. Your worldview extends as far this when it comes to criticism. You'll come back in the next reply and make the same accusations about how I should refrain from pointing how evil and failed Marxism is because it's spooky fascism when it's not.
thats the soft holocaust denial i was referring to, trivialization.
No, what you're doing is genocide denialism. I recognize the holocaust and how horrific it was. I also recognize the other atrocities that happened in history. The Armenian genocide was horrific. The Rwandan genocide was horrific. The Japanese rape of Nanking was horrific. Do you know what else is horrific? Marxist caused atrocities like Holodomor, the Great Chinese Famine, the Khmer Rouge genocide, the Red Terror, the Soviet forced deportations, the Mao led Democides, and the list goes on and on. These dark events killed tens of millions in aggregate and they were caused directly by Marxist policies. Recognizing an atrocity doesn't take away from another. Implying that it does is quite literally genocide denialism because you're trying to silence the recognition and criticism of certain atrocities.
back when the black book of communism came out a bunch of people got up in arms because it’s pretty much the same line of thinking as that double genocide theory, that the holocaust wasn’t unique.
Literally nobody uses the black book of communism except Marxists who literally have nothing else. You don't even seem to grasp that the horrors of Marxism don't stem from the book, but from actual history. These events are very well documented historical events that have been academically analyzed and evidenced.
I remember the introduction especially caught a bunch of flak for saying that the people who liberated the concentration camps were worse than the people who ran them, but the whole conceit of the book is kinda suspect.
I literally don't give a shit about this book. It means absolutely nothing to me.
anyway, don’t equate communism and naziism, it’s fascist junk and you’re not a fascist.
You have no moral high ground whatsoever to tell me what I can and can't do. You're literally a Marxist. You're on the same tier as fascists. You can pretend that you're better all you want, but you're ultimately not. You're right, I'm not a fascist, but you're not exactly something that's better than a fascist. Shitty ideologies that are similar in nature will inevitably be compared, and rightfully so.
Like I said, I can point you towards some books that will make these ideas easier to understand. I’m offering to do that because we’re so far apart in understanding that it would take a huge amount of my time to get you to where I’m at and just judging by the length of our responses, it really seems like you’ve got a lot more time than me.
If you just want to call me names for being a communist then that’s fine too.
To bring us way back to the whole point of our conversation, I asked why you were so dismissive of the psls platform and after rereading all your very long responses it seems like you think it would be a hard platform to implement, would significantly change the way the world works and Americas role in it and you take issue with communist ideas because of past failures.
I agree with all those. It’s not an easy task, would result in systemic change and upend old relationships. That’s the point. I see everyday that the institutions we have aren’t functioning for the good of the American people. I want something different.

The idea was for you to explain your own positions.
that it would take a huge amount of my time to get you to where I’m at
Then why engage in discussion with me at all if you're not willing to contribute anything of value?
and just judging by the length of our responses, it really seems like you’ve got a lot more time than me.
I was hoping that we would have some sort of intellectual discussion where we would critique each other's views. However, that proved to be futile because you turned out to be absolutely r*tarded. Not only are you incapable of explaining your own positions, but you're also incapable of comprehending mine. But I don't blame you for this, this was my mistake. I know there was nothing there coming in, but the optimist in me still tried to give you the benefit of the doubt.
If you just want to call me names for being a communist then that’s fine too.
Rightfully so.

If this is what you got from what I said then you're a lost cause.

To bring us way back to the whole point of our conversation, you're a fucking clown, Claudia De La Cruz is a fucking clown, the socialist party is a circus, your ideology is fucking disgusting, evil, and a colossal failure that just as bad as fascism, and I am very happy there is only a few thousand of you across the whole country. If this is the level of intelligence that comes out Marxists, then no wonder it has resulted in failure every single time. It wouldn't so bad if it didn't result in the deaths of tens of millions of people. I will make sure that I do everything I can to keep you idiots as far away from power as possible.
With that being said, this has been a complete waste of time and I have no intention of engaging with you any further. This will be my last reply to you. If you want to have any last words, go ahead, but I'm done.
Damn, well done. I don't really have the energy to argue with idiots who think "cancel all debt" is magic and thinks society would survive it. Glad to see some people still do.
you can choose to stop posting, that's fine.
if you change your mind and want to know particulars about a certain policy or something i can give some reading recommendations that will do a much better job of explaining ideas in the detail you seem interested in than i can.
I dunno what you're talking about dude, just stumbled upon this and you got absolutely murdered lol
