    This is your daily reminder that believing that capitalism is dogshit and the investor class are parasites does NOT necessitate bootlicking totalitarian regimes who genocide religious and ethnic minorities!

    Especially when that totalitarian regime itself is nothing but a state capitalist regime painted red!

      I was banned from LateStageCapitalism on Reddit for saying Russia attempted to intervene in US elections. Apparently that counted as spreading propaganda created by the US govt.

      Not China, but the same thing happen with Russia

        It’s insane, especially since Russia isn’t even pretend-communist like China is. Like, it’s out-and-out a capitalist oligarchy. But I guess tankies aren’t known for their understanding of… much of anything, really.

      No one needs this reminder. The situation described doesn’t exist. You created a strawman to be upset at.

        Fucking lmao. Can I make you disappear by asking what happened in Tiananmen Square, June, 1989?

          A government killed it’s citizens, just like the USA did in Philadelphia and anytime there was a Union strike they didn’t like. Focus on real issues and stop making up things to get upset about.
