Imagine looking at a video where he explicitly states leftists have no desire to rule by violence, and repeating the tired comment that he's a tankie.

I firmly believe he can "hide his power level" or share a different level of radical views based on the topic or the platform he's on.

The Deprogram's most recent response to being called tankies? They made a whole episode about it where they said "Tankie is an overused term, and everyone who calls us tankies is a liberal" ๐Ÿ˜‚

He's shared more explicit support of the USSR and other genocidal and evil failed experiments in governance that happened to call themselves left-wing, and while in his main channel he won't talk about it, he's also never refuted or talked about a change in his views. He believes that shit, he just wants to capture viewers into his sphere before he lets them know.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
