modern liberals have this interesting perspective that is essentially the opposite of “the ends justify the means” where the means are actually the ends. The problem is not the genocide or the exploitation, it’s the authoritarianism that necessarily accompanies those things. So if you were to use authoritarianism to destroy a fascist movement it is exactly the same thing as using authoritarianism to do genocide. It’s not the genocide or the destruction of fascists that is good or bad, it’s the means by which you do it.

He's so gentle and nice while supporting genocide, he even sent a strictly worded letter to Netanyahu for him to stop destroying the aid packages Care-Comrade

It's infuriating to see these children smugly lecture other people about how effectiveness if for bad people, and don't you realize that if you become effective you are therefore bad? Bet you didn't think about that, better read up a little more or your politics there kiddo, I understand being young and idealist but one day you'll understand the we had to do this genocide to beat the fascists.

Pretty funny how Reddit is so convinced I want their content I MUST use their app.

It's like the Nigerian Prince scam. It is poorly written to filter out smart people.

I've caught a ton of right-wingers right in this sub pandering the "Genocide joe" crap. A couple of them have admitted that they don't even live in the US.

Yesterday, it was 5 of them.

Shit, I engaged with one of them a few days ago who forgot he wasn't supposed to admit he's Russian. Hope he didn't get fired.

Guys, there are people on this site expressing their political opinions and they're not even from the US. Anyone one of us could be a foreigner. Trust no one.

As a Russian bot living in America, I'm planning on voting for Biden because Putin told me to. I have no choice but to obey my programming.

I'm going to demand my girlfriend turn in her phone.

I didn't think she could've been using it for internet purposes until now.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
