Nothing wrong per se with communism itself, it just tends to be extremely unstable and quickly turns to authoritarianism, I don’t think it’s ever worked for any nation in history so far.
The defending of Uyghur genocides, and the defending of the CCP and Russian government is really concerning though. Good thing this platform is federated.
libretro has a similar problem, it’s developed by a team of transphobic, homophobic, racist Russian apologists who border on Nazism. I don’t know what attracts these people to FOSS development.
the modern russian state is not the soviet union, it is who america put in charge after creating a situation that led to millions of deaths.
The fact that you can believe this narrative literally spawned by the people who currently control and siphon away 50% or more of Russia’s entire GDP into foreign bank accounts under the whip of Vladimir “East German KGB-operative” Putin is pretty astounding.
Because it isn’t logical, because it is all a mess. Yet because Russia claims Soviet glory and tankies actively shows the current regime reverence as if Putin was a General Secretary, it is rather hard to actually make a distinction between the current authoritarian regime and the one of the Soviets - the fact of the matter is that Russian political culture whether royalist, communist or capitalist doesn’t change.
Yeah I find this so funny, liberals only pretend to care about LGBTQ+ people to virtue signal. Cuba has better LGBTQ+ rights than most Western countries.
Aight fair enough, that’s pretty concerning.

Hey, just fyi, there are different branches of communism. The most popular ones vehemently oppose Russia, China, and North Korea.
u/CommunistLady is part of the delusional few who are pro-China, but please don’t attack communists as a whole because of the loud idiots.
Your outrage is completely misguided.
Say Russia was trying to “exterminate gay people”: it is a capitalist country.
You can’t present the deeds of capitalists as evidence of communist wrongdoing.
…it would great if the tankies could understand that fact to be case in any other context when discussing Russia, but they don’t, so we won’t.
Not a fan of that logic
