i cannot believe how many decades a single word has had a chokehold on this country with zero sense of political nuance

[-] aleph@lemm.ee 68 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Yup. Decades of Cold War propaganda, an incompetent news media, and a binary, two-party duopoly that positions itself as "the right" versus "the left" have all worked together on this one.

[-] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

The media aren't incompetent, they're complicit

[-] cmbabul@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

The Russian Revolution freaked the capitalists out and they’ve done everything they could for nearly a century to demonize the concept of solidarity

[-] cucumber_sandwich@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

The cold war has been over for almost as long as it went on...

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 29 points 4 months ago

And I still continually find people on the internet calling Russia communist. It's enough to make a communist scream.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

Nah, it never ended. It just became multipolar and (usually) less obvious.

[-] cucumber_sandwich@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

Ok, sure. But the whole red scare was specifically about the bipolar part with focus on the Soviet Union

[-] danc4498@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Nuance doesn’t even enter the conversation when it comes to communism. Republicans tell lies based on their voters inability to understand the basic definition of communism.

[-] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 77 points 4 months ago

If communism/socialism mean the less fortunate get help, Jesus Chris is a communist then.

[-] aleph@lemm.ee 31 points 4 months ago

An irony that 100% of Christian Nationalists will never appreciate.

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

Not positive about JC being a communist, but certainly a socialist.

[-] bufalo1973@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 months ago

"We are all brothers" look pretty communist, even anarchist, to me.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Ah so a misogynist /s

[-] goferking0 7 points 4 months ago

Yes but they don't like that version of Jesus. Or when you point out things they don't like from the Bible

[-] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

Jesus was an all American hero!

lol every time they try to fear monger about Harris and Walz they just make them cooler. idiots.

"if she wins everybody gets free healthcare"

"he's a socialist"

"she wants communism"

well sign me the fuck up then, you dodo.

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 24 points 4 months ago

They've been screaming about socialism and communism for over 20 years now. The next wave of voters has become numb to this bullshit talking point.

It's kind of how in the past they were screaming that gays are going to kill marriages for 20 years, then people finally saw through their bullshit so now they are attacking trans people.

Republican talking points are always fear mongering and lies. My entire life they have NEVER provided a solution to anything. It's constant hysteria and then reactionary bullshit like the patriot act and Iraq war that has made things infinitely worse.

Republicans want to seem tough, but they are some of the most scared, biggest bitches you'll ever meet. They are literarily afraid of bathrooms.....

[-] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 11 points 4 months ago

20? More like 45-65 years.

[-] cogman@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

The problem they have is that communism was a real enemy of the US with examples of autocratic governments worldwide that were well known and scary to people.

However, now that everyone can Google "what is communism" and "what is socialism" only the most incurious morons fall for the "that's socialism!" lines of attack. Everyone else simply laughs about it.

It really doesn't help that Republicans are openly talking about how they want to setup and autocracy/monarchy which is exactly the scary part of former/current communist states. Nor does it help that whenever Republicans are labeling something communist, it's loved social programs such as libraries, social security, or Medicare.

Can't they hire someone to help them with their memes?

[-] grozzle@lemm.ee 14 points 4 months ago

clearly a failure of the free market.

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago

Yeah but they use LinkedIn so it's just a recursive exercise.

I wish she wanted communism! Then I would be excited instead of just lukewarm about voting for her.

[-] aleph@lemm.ee 26 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Musk sycophants coming to his defense in the comments by quoting "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" 🤦‍♂️

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

Those idiots WOULD quote the most based thing Marx ever said to attack communism! 😂🤦

[-] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 24 points 4 months ago

Dems: Hey, we have policies are that going to help other people have more of the same rights you have...

Them: THEY'RE TAKIN' MUY RIGHTS AWAY!!!!!!!!

Dems: We're not taking anyone's rights away, other people are just...

Them: MARXIST COMMUNIST SOCIALISM!!

[-] ChronosTriggerWarning@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Hey, when did you meet my family..?

[-] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 4 months ago

Dare I even fucking ask what “Autism Capital” is?

[-] dojan@lemmy.world 40 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Given the rainbow puzzle piece and the name, I’m guessing an ableist right-wing meme account presenting themselves as neurodivergent.

Far right shills trying to be hip with the kids, in other words.

Lol, Elon is such a fucking idiot.

[-] LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Was Trump a communist when he gave us those stimulus checks? Would Kamala be a communist if she implemented Universal Basic Income?

[-] occhionaut@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Whatever gets their voters out of mommy's basement

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

Apparently it's getting the rich to pay their fair share of taxes.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Meme from the guy getting government “socialist” incentives.

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

This guy is world's richest man...

[-] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

He is not. He is the richest reported man. There are families that do not publicly report their net worth. There are very likely trillionaires out there. Putin, for example.

[-] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Doesn't change the fact that this man child has alot of influence on world politics

[-] I_Has_A_Hat@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

I make meme:

Person: Muskie dum?

Elon: No.

Person: Muskie dum dum?

Elon: yes.

The memes know

[-] chemicalprophet@lemm.ee 9 points 4 months ago

Cops are NOT welcome in communism. They’ll already have spent time up against the wall if society ever evolves. ACAB, even ‘at least they aren’t the shitgibbon’

My general response is to ask them to define communism and socialism, highlighting the differences between the two. The results will surprise you \s

[-] gencha@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

Oh no. A communist? Let's get a retarded racist to save us from this horror!

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago

oh they know what it is and they fear it.

they just want us to be confused about what it even is.
