  I don’t know, I’ve met plenty of American tankies, anarchists, socialists, and communists. This is some real “reject the evidence of your eyes and ears” level shit. I can’t twist reality into enough of a pretzel to make this viewpoint have any validity. It’s laughable.

    American communists are not in any sort of political power and are destroyed when they do anything. There is no American left. You are live under totalitarian control and you are so blinded by liberalism you can’t even recognize the total and complete social control you can never escape from.

    Want to know how I know the US is a prison? Ask literally any American why they don’t move to another country.

      Most don’t want to move. Immigrants die to get in because their homes were destroyed by global capitalism. Despite all the shitty things about the US, people wanting to leave isn’t a big thing yet. I don’t personally know of many prisons that people are dying to get into. America is more like a casino anyhow.

      As far as communists not having power, I can’t say it’s surprising. ML communism has been an absolute failure, poisoned from early on. The only kind of ML state that has survived without totally embracing capitalism is Cuba, and that’s depressingly thanks to the USA keeping them isolated. Besides, Cuba mostly swore fealty to Marxist-Leninism because of shared interests.

      Communism is dead in the US because it’s dead everywhere. With few exceptions, every so called “existing socialist state” has embraced capitalism and done more to reinforce classism, imperialism, and nationalism than eliminate these vices. Socialism is about getting rid of class differences, uniting the working class across the globe. Most of you self proclaimed “communists” are deluded cultists who make a mockery of the ideas that you claim to represent.

      I’m not blinded by liberalism so much as I’m disillusioned with supposedly communist movements. I will never follow a movement that demands its followers reject reason and evidence in favor of dogma and genocide denial. If not following the divine unquestionable wisdom of Vladimir Lenin constitutes not being left wing, then the left deserves to fail.

      Unfortunately for chuds like you, the left is bigger than your stupid fucking cult, and leftists will make the world a better place with or without your help. No matter how many communities you infiltrate and take over, leftists will just gather again elsewhere. This is because leftists are people who try to make the world a better place rather than falling into cynicism and tribalism. People don’t need Marx or Lenin to know how things suck or how things can be better. Your hero worship is less than worthless.

  I bet you also believe America sent genetically engineered super mutants soldiers to Ukraine to overthrow Russian freedumbs.

    No, I believe the US uses its vast military to destabilize regions to guarantee weapons sales. Fuck you with this bullshit
