@igeljaeger they aren't tankies, they aren't even communists
@orekix I dunno man I ask them and they proudly say they are. Not sure how your opinion matters in this case
@igeljaeger it matters because they're calling themselves something that they aren't, they're more interested in fighting the general population than promoting communist ideals
@orekix keep telling yourself that. AS far as I know it's not uncommon for communist ideology to promote """revolution""" by force. And theyre larping that part of their doctrine
@orekix why am I even taking with you about this? Are you implying communism will happen by democracy? :megaLUL:
@igeljaeger no, you're understanding this wrong, communism by democracy is what they think will happen, otherwise they wouldn't be siding with liberals that want strict gun control

they should be reducing so much infighting and bringing the part of the population that is a bit more conservative that has more guns to their side

@orekix @igeljaeger How can anarchists think communism by democracy will happen? :thonk:

@matrix @igeljaeger @orekix They're flying the flag. I don't know who gets to decide which communists are real or what the criteria are.
@p @matrix @orekix I'm sure xeno and orekix have the answers to that question:lul:
@p @matrix @igeljaeger

I mean, this is like flying a Gadsden flag and then cheering for an authoritarian leader like Pinochet, which some of them do, it's contradictory isn't it? they're not really libertarians if they do this.
@igeljaeger
umm anarcho syndicalist, so no not really, he tried to clean up the name by calling it libertarian socialism
@matrix @orekix @p
@a7 it's ok I'd rather listen to what you have to say than the other two lefties with their condescending attitude
@igeljaeger honestly i agree with your assessment of both groups, and antifa makes me wanna throw up. They attack people with crowbars, attack people with bats and fist, then cry foul over words or any fighting back, while being basically pampered by the media to profit of their imagined sick money grubbing "wokeness". I can recommend "Manufacturing Consent" there is a book and a documentary, both good, both cover mostly the whole point. It applies to all ideologies, just a simple observation about propaganda and media control of democracy. He started out as a linguist, thats why he did that work. Hes famously hated for writing an oped that was used as an introduction to a holocaust denial book written by a french man, he supported his use of it and his right to release the book.
@igeljaeger i was just memeing around cause libertarian socialism as a term bugs people and comes out of the blue mentally.
@a7 @igeljaeger have you considered that one reason why it comes out of the blue mentally is precisely the identification of freedom and libertarianism with capitalist ideology (promulgated through school, church, MSM and work) rather than truly libertarian ideology? If anything, the mental disconnect forces people to think, and it leads to discussions like "hey, isn't that an oxymoron?"; it's a way for socialism to get its foot in the door and explain that the real oxymoron is right-libertarianism.
@qtd3n @igeljaeger you ever try to figure out what the person thinks or anything before you jump down their throat. Im obviously a fan of chomsky, and even posted his movie where he personally goes into that. Please pay attention.
@qtd3n @a7 yeah man me opening a kebap restaurant and hiring ali to help out with the kitchen truly is antifreedom dood
@igeljaeger
weirdly enough there's more to advanced industrial society than ali and your kebab restaurant

@a7
I wasn't trying to jump down your throat, nor was my comment intended with malice; it was more of a suggestion to build on your point rather than attacking your point. Sorry that it came out reading as if I were jumping down your throat.
@igeljaeger @a7 sorry for losing my patience after entire literal fucking months you retarded pissbaby
@igeljaeger @xeno @a7
Why does xeno after 'loosing patience' with you, still talk to you (even I only to call you a pissbaby) but not Levi? :akaheh:
I wanna be called a pissbaby
@orekix @igeljaeger @matrix Who gets to decide which libertarians are real?

You're setting yourself up for absurd mental contortions if you get too hung up on whether something can be appropriately labeled "real $x" or who gets to self-apply a term. They want to implement communism, they call themselves communists. You can disagree with them or agree with them, but no true Scotsman would do a terminology argument.
@p @orekix @matrix reminds me of when levi calls catholics "not real christians"
@matrix @igeljaeger

That's what they try to call themselves but there's no movement to be made when acting like this, instead of taking advantage of the freedom that they get to have dialogue and convince people to join them against those above they would rather fight the average joe for wearing a trump hat or a journalist.

It's all because of this stupid mess trying to merge identity politics with some kind of revolution when it's just not possible, you can't have sectarianism in this, worst of all in a place like the United States.

It's like they haven't learned anything from the failures of the past anarchist and communist movements that failed to build anything that lasted because in part they were just enforced by an elite minority that seized power, you just descend into authoritarianism when they doing this, it's madness.

@orekix @igeljaeger I agree with the entire post, but it's not an argument on how they aren't ancoms.

@matrix @igeljaeger fine, call them that, but I'll just say that they do more harm to any movement than help
